Effects of nanoparticles/nanotubes on plant growth
Original language description
Due to the rapidly increasing human population and ongoing climate change, modern smart agriculture management is essential for the production of sufficient healthy food, enabling to achieve high yields of crops with improved nutritional quality at low costs and minimizing contamination of environmental matrices with compounds without adverse impact on soil degradation and nontarget organisms. One of the promising strategies to meet this challenge is the use of nanoscale agrochemicals, such as nanofertilizers and nanoherbicides enabling not only improved crops yield at using lower doses compared to conventional agrochemicals but also ensuring improved solubility, controlled release, or targeted biodistribution of active substances, thereby reducing the adverse impact on nontarget organisms and environmental contamination. However, due to the hormetic effects of nanoscale agrochemicals, the choice of the optimal dose for each treatment is extremely important. This chapter is focused on the beneficial and adverse impact of nanoscale agrochemicals based on metal-based nanoparticles and carbon and halloysite nanotubes on the growth and yield of plants, their beneficial impact on improved production of valuable secondary metabolites, and alleviating the adverse effects of environmental stresses on plants. The mechanisms of actions of these nanoscale materials on plants are discussed, and the benefits of using nanosized herbicidal formulations to control unwanted weeds are analyzed as well.
