Antifungal activity of biosynthesised copper nanoparticles evaluated against red root-rot disease in tea plants (2016, background): “Nanotechnology enhances antimicrobial activity of copper metal when it is transformed into corresponding nanoparticle.[7] Among the different diseases reported in tea plants, red root-rot disease is considered as a primary root disease caused by Poria hypolateritia Berk.”
Biosynthesis and effects of copper nanoparticles on plants (2017, background): “Studies carried on in vitro antifungal activity of copper nanoparticles reported the maximum antifungal activity against Curvularia lunata MTCC 2030 followed by Alternaria alternata MTCC6572, Fusarium oxysporum MTCC1755 and Phoma destructive DBT66 (Kanhed et al. 2014).”
Biological Synthesis of Copper Nanoparticles and its impact-a Review (2014, background): “Cu Nps synthesized by chemical reduction of Cu in the presence of cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide and isopropyl alcohol having particle size of 3–10 nm showed significant antifungal activity against plant pathogenic fungi, Fusarium oxysporum, Alternaria alternata, Curvularia lunata and Phoma destru”
