Full Description

This contributed volume offers a comprehensive exploration of how plants interact with nanomaterials at various biological levels. It delves into the mechanisms through which nanomaterials influence plant signaling pathways, cellular processes, and overall plant physiology. The book discusses both beneficial and adverse effects of nanomaterials on plants, providing a balanced view of the current scientific understanding. 
 
The chapters here offer in-depth analyses of how nanomaterials are taken up by plant cells, how they move within plant tissues, and how they are metabolized. It covers the latest research on the mechanisms of nanomaterial-induced signal transduction, highlighting the complex biochemical and molecular interactions at play. The book also addresses the potential toxicity of nanomaterials and their impact on plant health, development, and productivity. Additionally, the book explores the practical applications of nanotechnology in agriculture and horticulture. It discusses how nanomaterials can be used to enhance plant growth, improve resistance to pests and diseases, and increase tolerance to environmental stresses and also explores impacts and risks. 
 
Researchers, scientists, and students in the fields of plant biology, nanotechnology, and environmental science will benefit immensely from this book. Agricultural professionals, policymakers, and industry stakeholders interested in the practical applications of nanotechnology in plant science will also find this book invaluable. The chapters here aim to equip readers with the knowledge needed to harness the potential of nanotechnology while mitigating its risks.
