TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of graphene oxide (GO) on tomato plants at the seedling and mature stages in terms of morphological and biochemical indices was assessed. And the results showed that GO treatment significantly improved the shoot/stem growth of tomato in a dose-dependent manner by increasing the cortical cells number, cross-sectional area, diameter and vascular-column area.

Graphene Oxide as an Effective Soil Water Retention Agent Can Confer Drought Stress Tolerance to Paeonia ostii without Toxicity.
TL;DR: GO did not have toxic effects on P. ostii and was an effective soil water retention agent; therefore, it could be economically beneficial for the production of plants under drought stress.

The rise of graphene
TL;DR: Owing to its unusual electronic spectrum, graphene has led to the emergence of a new paradigm of 'relativistic' condensed-matter physics, where quantum relativistic phenomena can now be mimicked and tested in table-top experiments.
