The bottlenecks of conventional plant genome-editing methods gave an innovative rise to
nanotechnology as a delivery tool to manipulate gene (s) of interest. Studies suggest a …

In this study, Brassica chinensis L seedlings after 6 weeks of soil cultivation were treated
with foliar application of TiO2 NPs (20 mg/L) for different times. Transcriptomics analysis was …

Climate change (ie, rising temperature and precipitation) due to global warming is affecting
soil fertility, thereby significantly causing a decrease in agriculture production worldwide. At …

Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs)—amendments with carbon in nanoscale form—could
potentially enhance fertilizer delivery efficiency in agriculture, but their interaction with soil …

The widespread use of nanomaterials in agriculture may introduce multiple engineered
nanoparticles (ENPs) into the environment, posing a combined risk to crops. However, the …

An ideal green leaf-deposited pesticide formulation should offer advantages such as good
water dispersibility, strong foliar affinity, sustained or controlled release of active ingredients …

Plant genetic engineering methods are critical for food security and biofuel production and to
enable molecular farming. Here, we elucidated how polymeric high aspect ratio …

Layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanoparticles enable foliar delivery of genetic material,
