Synopsis: Nanotechnology is an emerging, pivotal platform for enhancing plant health. On one hand, nanomaterials serve as crucial nutrients and nanofertilizers, while on the other, they have demonstrated their potential for diagnosing plant diseases, delivering fungicides and pesticides, and providing therapeutic solutions against diseases caused by pathogens and parasites.The book Nanotechnology in Plant Health explores the significance of nanomaterials in plant nutrition, nanofertilizers, and their role in managing plant pathogens, including the most formidable ones like quarantined strains. This unique publication represents a global team of contributors and stands out for its comprehensive coverage of plant nanonutrients, nanofertilizers, and nano-plant protectors.
