Abstract
Changes in agricultural technology have been a major factor shaping
modern agriculture. Among the latest line of technological innovations,
nanotechnology occupies a prominent position in transforming agriculture and
food production. The development of nanodevices and nanomaterials could
open up novel applications in plant biotechnology and agriculture.
Nanoparticles (NPs) interact with plants causing many morphological and
physiological changes, depending on the properties of NPs. Efficacy of NPs is
determined by their chemical composition, size, surface covering, reactivity, and
most importantly the dose at which they are effective.
