Abstract Green synthesis of nanoparticles has emerged as a significant strategy to develop effective and eco-friendly insecticide agents combat resistance preserve environmental integrity biodiversity. This study was thus designed fabricate novel green synthesized NiFe 2 O 4 (NiFe NPs) investigate their potential insecticidal effects for the first time using Blaps polychresta beetle an agricultural coleopteran pest model. Therefore, we prepared NPs following hydrothermal procedure in presence lemon juice. The physiochemical characteristics were investigated employing SEM, TEM, FT-IR, XRD, TGA, VSM, UV-Vis analysis. lowest most dose against male beetles ascertained at concentration 0.03 mg/g body weight, reporting 67% mortality after 48 h. To impact NPs, EDX analysis demonstrated bioaccumulation testicular tissues beetles, leading pathophysiological consequences. Precisely, oxidative stress incited by led disturbance antioxidant defense system, which defined augmentation lipid peroxidation suppression enzymes. Furthermore, comet assay exhibited remarkable DNA impairment, while flow cytometry showed substantial cellular necrosis apoptosis NPs-treated compared control insects. In correlation with these findings, several aberrations histological ultrastructure attributes perceived, including impaired follicular cyst walls, deteriorated parietal cells, necrosis, vacuolations. These results implied that triggered injury testes, resulting reproductive system dysfunction. Altogether, our findings accentuate application nanopesticides, paving way sustainable cost-effective management insect pests agriculture.

Nanoparticles (NPs) have shown promising potential to improve plant resilience against various abiotic stresses like drought, salinity, heat, cold etc. by modulating key phytohormonal pathways. While previous studies explored the efficacy of different NPs in alleviating individual stresses, a critical analysis summarizing current understanding NPs-phytohormone interconnections is lacking. This review comprehensively surveys recent advances elucidating crosstalk between and major hormones abscisic acid, auxins, salicylic jasmonic cytokinins, ethylene, strigolactones brassinosteroids involved stress responses. Both biogenic chemically engineered are covered. The mechanisms underlying NP-triggered phytohormone signature changes discussed. Critical knowledge gaps such as lack field scale evaluations identified. Finally, future prospects include molecular more deeply using multi-omics approaches, evaluation under conditions diverse environmental contexts genotypes, long-term risk assessments, development targeted multi-component NP formulations. assimilates status outlook emerging NP-phytohormone interplay engineering for sustainable agriculture solutions.
