Boon or bane: Nanomaterials in plant growth and development. 330 $aNanotechnology is a branch of science that embraces the study and application of nanoparticles (NPs), i.e., those particles having at least one dimension measuring from 1?100 nm. This book presents recent developments involving the role of nanoparticles on plant physiology and growth. Nanotechnology applications include improvement of agricultural production using bio-conjugated NPs (encapsulation), transfer of DNA in plants for development of insect pest-resistant varieties, nanoformulations of agrochemicals such as pesticides and fertilizers for crop improvement, and nanosensors/nanobiosensors in crop protection for identification of diseases and residues of agrochemicals. Recent findings on the increased use of nanotechnology in agriculture by densely populated countries such as China and India indicate that this technology may impart a substantial impact on reducing hunger, malnutrition, and child mortality. Nanomaterials have recently experienced significant scrutiny in the basic and applied sciences as well as in bio-nanotechnology. A range of NP types (e.g., ZnO-NPs, Au-NPs, CuO-NPs, CNTs, AgO-NPs and TiO2-NPs) have been examined by researchers for their impacts on plant growth and development. In addition, particle size, size distribution, shape, surface and core chemistry, crystallinity, agglomeration state, purity, redox potential, catalytic activity, surface charge, and porosity are being investigated to understand and predict the behavior of NPs. This book addresses these issues and many more. Chapters incorporate both theoretical and practical aspects of plant nanotechnology and may serve as baseline information for future research through which significant development is possible. This book will be useful to researchers, instructors and students both in universities and research institutes, especially in relation to biological and agricultural sciences. 410 0$aSustainable Agriculture Reviews,$x2210-4410 ;$v41 606 $aAgriculture 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aNanochemistry 606 $aNanoscale science 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aNanostructures 606 $aPlant physiology 606 $aEnvironmental health 606 $aAgriculture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006 606 $aNanotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z14000 606 $aNanochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C33000 606 $aNanoscale Science and Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25140 606 $aPlant Physiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L33020 606 $aEnvironmental Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U18005 615 0$aAgriculture. 615 0$aNanotechnology. 615 0$aNanochemistry. 615 0$aNanoscale science. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aNanostructures. 615 0$aPlant physiology. 615 0$aEnvironmental health. 615 14$aAgriculture. 615 24$aNanotechnology. 615 24$aNanochemistry. 615 24$aNanoscale Science and Technology. 615 24$aPlant Physiology. 615 24$aEnvironmental Health. 676 $a338.1 702 $aHayat$b Shamsul$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aPichtel$b John$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFaizan$b Mohammad$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aFariduddin$b Qazi$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910767522003321 996 $aSustainable Agriculture Reviews 41$93655575 997 $aUNINA
