<p><b>Discover the role of nanotechnology in promoting plant growth and protection through the management of microbial pathogens&nbsp;</b></p> <p>In&nbsp;<i>Nanotechnology in Plant Growth Promotion and Protection,</i> distinguished researcher and author Dr.&nbsp;Avinash&nbsp;P. Ingle delivers a rigorous and insightful collection of some of the latest developments in nanotechnology&nbsp;particularly related&nbsp;to plant growth&nbsp;promotion&nbsp;and protection. The book focuses broadly on the role played by nanotechnology in growth promotion&nbsp;of plants&nbsp;and&nbsp;their&nbsp;protection&nbsp;through&nbsp;the management of different microbial pathogens.&nbsp;</p> <p>You&rsquo;ll learn about a wide variety of topics, including the role of nanomaterials in sustainable agriculture, how&nbsp;nano-fertilizers&nbsp;behave as soil feed, and the dual role of nanoparticles in plant growth&nbsp;promotion&nbsp;and phytopathogen management.&nbsp;You&rsquo;ll&nbsp;also discover why nanotechnology has the potential to revolutionize the current agricultural landscape through the development of nano-based products, like plant growth promoters, nano-fertilizers, nano-pesticides, and nano-insecticides.&nbsp;</p> <p>Find out why nano-based products promise to be a cost-effective, economically viable, and eco-friendly approach to tackling some of the most intractable problems in agriculture today.&nbsp;</p> <p>You&rsquo;ll&nbsp;also benefit from the inclusion of:&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li>A thorough introduction to the prospects and impacts of using nanotechnology to promote the growth of plants and control plant diseases&nbsp;</li> <li>An exploration of the effects of titanium dioxide nanomaterials on plant growth and the emerging applications of zinc-based nanoparticles in plant growth promotion&nbsp;</li> <li>Practical discussions of nano-fertilizer in enhancing the production potentials of crops and the potential applications of nanotechnology in plant nutrition and protection for&nbsp;sustainable agriculture&nbsp;</li> <li>A concise treatment of nanotechnology in seed science and soil feed&nbsp;</li> <li>Toxicological concerns of nanomaterials used in agriculture&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p>Perfect for undergraduate, graduate, and research students of nanotechnology, agriculture, plant science, plant physiology, and crops,&nbsp;<i>Nanotechnology in Plant Growth Promotion and Protection</i>&nbsp;will also earn a place in the libraries of professors and researchers in these areas, as well as regulators and policymakers.&nbsp;</p>
