    The use of nanotechnology in agriculture has created many concerns related to toxicity and environmental implications. Green synthesis techniques for producing nanomaterials utilizing plants, microorganisms, and other natural resources have been developed in response to the demand for green chemistry and nanotechnology. This book provides in-depth information on the plant-based synthesis of nanoparticles and promotes sustainable agriculture. It critically reviews nanomaterials synthesized from plants and their potential applications including nano-sized insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, fertilizers, and sensors, which can be helpful when studying and managing plant health and soil fertility. Features Presents a comprehensive resource on plant-based nanoparticle synthesis and their usage in gene transformation. Discusses strategies and limitations of genetically engineered plants through nanotechnology. Explains the design of nano-fertilizers and pesticides for environmental sustainability. Covers toxicity levels of nanoparticles in plants. Helps professionals and scholars learn advanced techniques to monitor soil and plant systems through nanotechnology. This is an excellent reference for researchers, academics, students, and professionals in Nanotechnology, Biochemistry, Biomedical, Biotechnology, Environmental Engineering and Agricultural Sciences, and Plant Sciences.
