SEM and EDX analysis confirms the presence of micro as well as macro nutrients in the samples and carbon has been found uniformly in a control b S4 sample and c magnified section of a MWCNT clump from image (b). As visible from SEM images of leaf sections, the control leaf has a smooth morphology without any clump-like structure, while MWCNT treated leaf is showing the clumps and its EDX spectra are also demonstrate increased weight percentage of carbon as the leaves have successfully uptaken the MWCNTs
