Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Boosts Phenolic Compounds and Antioxidant Activity of Capsicum annuum L. during Germination (2018, background): “dioxide (TiO2) for agricultural uses has created potential nanofertilizers [4].”
Effect of nanoparticles on crops and soil microbial communities (2018, background): “Nanofertilizers have emerged as new nutrient delivery systems using C, Fe, Mn, and ZnO (Liu and Lal 2015).”
Nanopesticides and Nanofertilizers: Emerging Contaminants or Opportunities for Risk Mitigation? (2015, background): “…certainly lead to a revolution in agricultural practices, and could possibly contribute to an important reduction in the impact of modern agriculture on the environment and an improvement in both the quality and quantity of yields (Scott and Chen, 2002; ETC, 2004; Sekhon, 2014; Liu and Lal, 2015).”
Impact of Metal and Metal Oxide Nanoparticles on Plant: A Critical Review (2017, background): “…Interaction Pathways Nanoparticles may interfere with plant metabolism in several ways, such as, by providing micronutrients (Liu and Lal, 2015), regulation of genes (Nair and Chung, 2014), or interfering with different oxidative processes in plants which results in oxidative burst…”
Nanotechnology in Agriculture: Which Innovation Potential Does It Have? (2016, background): “Such systems have the advantage to minimize leaching, while improving the uptake of nutrients by plants, and to mitigate eutrophication by reducing the transfer of nitrogen to groundwater (Liu and Lal, 2015).”
Fortification of micronutrients for efficient agronomic production: a review (2016, background): “…evaluated the efficacy of micronutrients packaged as NPs versus current packaging strategies in enhancing crop growth and the attendant mechanistic aspects (see Liu and Lal 2015), few have done so with respect to assessing the effects on crop yield, nutritional quality, or disease resistance.”
Effects of Stabilized Nanoparticles of Copper, Zinc, Manganese, and Iron Oxides in Low Concentrations on Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) Seed Germination: Nanotoxicants or Nanonutrients? (2016, background): “Indeed, application of nanofertilizers in agriculture is an important strategy to increasing agronomic production and ensuring global food and nutritional security (Liu and Lal 2015; Servin et al. 2015).”
Nanotechnology in Sustainable Agriculture: Recent Developments, Challenges, and Perspectives (2017, background): “…with use of engineered smart nanotools could be excellent strategy to make a revolution in agricultural practices, and thus reduce and/or eliminate the influence of modern agriculture on the environment as well as to enhance both the quality and quantity of yields (Sekhon, 2014; Liu and Lal, 2015).”
Zinc oxide nanoparticles: a review of their biological synthesis, antimicrobial activity, uptake, translocation and biotransformation in plants (2017, background): “Apart from the property of rapid absorption, the nanofertilizers also exhibit slow release and they are required in scarce amount and thus can reduce fertilizer consumption and environmental pollution [57].”
