Metal organic framework (MOF) materials are a novel porous material composed of metal ion clusters and organic ligands. Preliminary studies have shown the toxicity and potential threat of MOF materials to the environment. However, there are few reports on the plant toxicity of MOF materials, making it difficult to evaluate the harm of MOF materials to plants after entering the environment, and it is also not conducive to the development of environmental agricultural technologies related to MOF materials. This study synthesized MOF-74 material, namely MOF-74(Mg), using Mg as the metal center. This paper investigates the effect of MOF-74(Mg) on the toxicity of pea (Pisum sativum L.) by measuring the effects of MOF material exposure on pea biomass content and oxidative stress. The effect of MOF-74(Mg) on pea growth is limited. MOF-74(Mg) comes into direct contact with the root system during the cultivation process. The biological effect of MOF-74(Mg) on pea seedlings is dose-dependent, but MOF-74(Mg) has no significant effect on leaf quantity.
