    Metal nanoparticles are widely used in various fields of industry and their impact in the agricultural field is increasing. This research was carried out to investigate the effects of ZnO and TiO<inf>2</inf> nanoparticles on callus induction and plant metabolism in indica rice. Indica rice was assessed in plant tissue culture condition to estimate the influence of metal nanoparticles on morphological and physiological factors over 4 weeks. The seeds of Oryza sativa L. var. KDML105 were exposed to 1-3 mg L<sup>-1</sup> of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) in the callus induction medium. The induced-calli were cultured on the callus induction medium supplemented with 2 mg L<sup>-1</sup> of 2,4-D and showed a high increase in size and dry weight contents under the light condition when compared with the control and other treatments. Moreover, this research also investigated the potential impacts of ZnO and TiO<inf>2</inf> nanoparticles at 200, 400 and 800 mg L<sup>-1</sup> on morphological and metabolic responses of the induced-calli cultured on the callus induction medium supplemented with 2,4-D and each type of metal nanoparticles. At 4 weeks after treatment, the induced-calli were analyzed for plant growth and assays on aspects of their metabolism were undertaken. The induced-calli exposed to 200 mg L<sup>-1</sup> of ZnO or TiO<inf>2</inf> nanoparticles were found to have significant increase of biomass (size and dry weight of callus), total phenolic compounds and total flavonoid contents in KDML105 variety. The results demonstrated that utilization of ZnO and TiO<inf>2</inf> nanoparticles at appropriate concentration could positively induce the production of beneficial secondary metabolites in the induced-calli of indica rice and are worthy of further study for applications in other plant species.

    In recent years, the application of nanomaterials has been investigated by various studies, especially in their biological and agricultural features. This research aimed to evaluate the influence of zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO<inf>2</inf>) nanoparticles on the quality of the plant regeneration in rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. RD49). Mature seed explants were used for callus induction and plant regeneration cultured on the medium supplemented with different concentrations of ZnO or TiO<inf>2</inf> nanoparticles. The high percentage of the callus induction was achieved on the medium supplemented with 5 mg.L<sup>-1</sup> ZnO nanoparticles or 20 mg.L<sup>-1</sup> TiO<inf>2</inf> nanoparticles when compared with control treatment (without nanoparticles). Various concentrations of TiO<inf>2</inf> nanoparticles were also found to increase the percentage of the plant regeneration more than ZnO nanoparticles. The highest percentage of plant regeneration was observed on the medium containing the concentration of 20 mg.L<sup>-1</sup> TiO<inf>2</inf> nanoparticles. The in vitro rooting of regenerated shoots was hardened and successfully transplanted to the field after 30 days of transplantation. The results suggested that ZnO and TiO<inf>2</inf> nanomaterials may have potential applications in the in vitro plant regeneration.
