Abstract BACKGROUND Fusarium wilt disease caused by the soil pathogen oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici significantly impacts global tomato production. While conventional fungicides remain primary control method, their high application volumes and environmental persistence necessitate alternative approaches. We hypothesize that magnetite nanoparticles (NPs) suppress fungal growth through a tripartite mechanism disrupts membrane integrity at nano‐bio interface, generation of reactive oxygen species iron‐mediated catalysis, perturbation iron homeostasis pathways. RESULTS In vitro studies demonstrated 5 nm NPs exhibited superior antifungal activity with an EC₅₀ 8.84 mg/L compared to Ningnanomycin 84.77 mg/L. Comparative efficacy under greenhouse conditions showed 0.5 achieved 65% suppression versus 71.4%, while requiring lower 180–360 g per hectare 4500–5850 mL hectare. The NP treatment reduced index 35.42%, alleviated root rot symptoms 19.33%, enhanced plant defense mechanisms elevated accumulation increased content 92.15%. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates provide competitive against multiple mechanistic pathways reducing total chemical input. dual functionality direct activation, combined volumes, establishes these as promising ecofriendly in production systems. © 2025 Society Chemical Industry.

Environmental and safety aspects of nanotechnology in genetically modified crops for sustainable agriculture

Physiologia Plantarum, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 177(3)

Опубликована: Май 1, 2025

Abstract The rising global demand for food poses a significant threat to environmental health through both biotic (e.g., pests, pathogens) and abiotic drought, salinity) stresses. Therefore, the adoption of innovative strategies is essential ensure sustainability agricultural practices enhance crop resilience against challenges. This review investigates how integration nanotechnology with genetically modified (GM) crops can offer solutions challenges by improving productivity. While genetic modification has faced limitations in achieving consistent results due variability species‐specific differences, emerged as transformative tool GM performance. In this study we critically explore underlying mechanisms combining plant growth development their Furthermore, also play crucial role targeted gene delivery, precise genome editing, controlled regulation expression cells. Overall, emerging paving way agriculture. By leveraging nanotechnology, researchers are exploring novel approaches productivity, combat diseases, improve stress sustainable highlighted impacts safety issues associated using order establish more resilient farming practices.
