Beskrivning
Advances in Phytonanotechnology: From Synthesis to Application guides readers through various applications of nanomaterials on plants by presenting the latest research related to nanotechnology and nanomaterials on plant systems. The book focuses on the effects of these applications on plant morphology, physiology, biochemistry, ecology and genetics. Sections cover the impact on plant yield, techniques, a review of positive and negative impacts, and an overview of current policies regarding the use of nanotechnology on plants. Additionally, the book offers insights into the appropriate application of nanoscience to plants and crops for improved outcome and an exploration of their bioavailability and toxicity in the environment.
- Discusses the morphological, physiological and biochemical responses of plants to nanomaterials and the ability of the nanomaterials in modifying the genetic constitution of plants
- Emphasizes new applications of nanomaterials, including nanosensors technology and nanomaterials as nanocarriers based antimicrobial phytochemicals
- Presents the role of nanotechnology as a novel technique for the remediation of heavy metals by plants

Mer information
Mansour Ghorbanpour obtained his MSc and PhD degrees in Crop Ecology from Tehran University (Karaj, Iran) and has been a visiting scholar in the Nutrient Uptake and Toxicity Stress (NUTS) group at the University of Western Australia (Perth, Australia). He specializes in the production and domestication of medicinal and aromatic plants. His research interests include medicinal plants and their bioactive ingredients in stressful environments; the discovery and development of new therapeutic plants and products; phyto-nanotechnology; the bioavailability of emerging contaminants in plant–soil systems; agricultural practices and techniques for increasing plant primary and secondary metabolites; and the diversity of natural products and bioactive compounds of aromatic medicinal plants, among others. A prolific author, Dr. Ghorbanpour was listed among the top 2% of scientists in the world for three consecutive years (2019–2021) by Stanford University. Shabir Hussain Wani is Scientist cum Assistant Professor at Shere-e- Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Kashmir where his research focuses on plant breeding and genetics/plant biotechnology. Included among his awards are: Fellow of the Linnean Society of London-2017 YOUNG SCIENTIST Award (2017), Indian Ecological Society Punjab Agricultural University Ludhiana. Young Scientist of the Year 2016, International foundation for Environment and Ecology Kolkata India.
