In recent decades, nanotechnology applied to agriculture has attracted considerable interest due to its potential to boost crop growth and productivity. This research aimed to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of zinc oxide nanoparticles applied to radish plants grown on different organic substrates under low tunnel conditions. The research was conducted at the Chiapas Regional Academic Center of the Antonio Narro Autonomous Agrarian University in 2023. A randomized design with nine treatments and five replications (two plants per replication) was used. The substrates used were common soil, worm humus, and bokashi. During the development of the crop, three applications of zinc oxide nanoparticles of 5 ml per plant were made through the soil at concentrations of 0, 10 and 20 mg L1. Morphological variables of fresh and dry biomass were estimated, which are directly associated with yield. The results showed statistical differences in 10 of the 12 variables evaluated. The best values were obtained in treatments T5 and T8, which represent worm humus in combination with 10 and 20 mg L1 of zinc oxide nanoparticles, respectively. On the contrary, the treatments (T7 and T9) that were grown on the bokashi substrate in combination with zinc oxide nanoparticles had the lowest values, even compared to the control. It is important to explore further the interactions that occur between nanoparticles with different organic substrates and the responses of agricultural crops.
