The fate of nanofertilizers in agroecosystems -- Bibliography -- Index. aLarge-scale chemical fertilizer application causes irreparable damage to soil structure, mineral cycles, soil microbial flora, plants, and other food chains across ecosystems, culminating in heritable mutations in future generations of consumers. A better way forward is the use of nanofertilizers to focus on macro elements (N, P, K), as switching to nanofertilizers may result in large environmental benefits by replacing the majority of these nutrients. Furthermore, the biosynthesis of nanomaterials using bacteria, algae, yeast, fungus, actinomycetes, and plants has opened up a new avenue of research in the production of inorganic nanoparticles as ecologically friendly fertilizers. Nanofertilizers should also attain increased efficiency because of a several-fold increase in the surface-to-volume ratio of nano-forms of nutrients and their suitability for foliar application, where environmental losses are further reduced. Nanostructured fertilizers can also improve nutrient use efficiency through strategies such as targeted distribution and progressive or controlled-release as they can precisely release their active molecules in response to environmental cues and biological demands. Recent research shows nanofertilizers can increase agricultural productivity by speeding up seed germination, seedling growth, photosynthetic activity, nitrogen metabolism, and carbohydrate and protein synthesis. The potential agricultural benefits of nanofertilizers, their modes of action, and the fate of nanomaterials in soil are all discussed in this book. It also covers nanofertilizer formulation and delivery, applications, uptake, translocation, and their fate in plants, as well as their impact on plant physiology and metabolism. Nutrient nanoformulation is a valuable method that has the potential to alter the agricultural sector and provide solutions to current and future concerns for sustainable and climate-sensitive crops. 0aPlant biotechnology. 0aNanobiotechnology. 0aPlant diseases. 0aAgricultural genome mapping. 0aPlant physiology.14aPlant Biotechnology.24aNanobiotechnology.24aPlant Pathology.24aAgricultural Genetics.24aPlant Physiology.1 aAbd-Elsalam, Kamel A.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aAlghuthaymi, Mousa A.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303141328508iPrinted edition:z978303141330808iPrinted edition:z9783031413315 0aNanotechnology in the Life Sciences,x2523-803540uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-41329-2
