Ascorbic acid (AsA) and selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) were versatile plant growth regulators, playing multiple roles in promoting plant growth under heavy metal stresses. This study aimed to evaluate the beneficial role of individual and combined effects of AsA and SeNPs on morpho-physio-biochemical traits of rice with or without chromium (Cr) amendment. The results indicated that Cr negatively affected plant biomass, gas exchange parameters, total soluble sugar, proline, relative water contents, and antioxidant-related gene expression via increasing reactive oxygen species (MDA, H2O2, O2•-) formation, resulting in plant growth reduction. The application of AsA and SeNPs, individually or in combination, decreased the uptake and translocation of Cr in rice seedlings, increased seedlings with tolerance to Cr toxicity, and significantly improved the rice seedling growth. Most notably, AsA + SeNP treatment strengthened the antioxidative defense system through ROS quenching and Cr detoxification. The results collectively suggested that the application of AsA and SeNPs alone or in combination had the potential to alleviate Cr toxicity in rice and possibly other crop species.
