Nano-Biofortification for Human and Environmental Health
Nanotechnology has shown great potential to alleviate increasing pressure to meet food needs for our increasing human population, Novel agricultural innovations are required to enhance the health of edible crops and per unit area yield without impacting the associated environment in a negative way. Recent advancements in nanotechnology-based agricultural solutions have proven to help overcome the problems in agriculture that are associated with run-off of essential fertilizers from agricultural soils, low nutrient accumulation by crops, as well as to control insects, pests, and seasonal biotic factors, treatment of wastewater used for irrigation, plant uptake of xenobiotics (heavy metals, pe...
Plant growth-promoting bacteria as key tool for future agriculture: agronomic, molecular and omics approaches
Currently, agriculture is at a crossroads similar to that experienced at the beginning of the last century. The growing need to supply food to global markets and the incipient climate is expected to jeopardize the current agricultural systems. This situation requires a rethinking of agricultural production systems, and it is clearly necessary to incorporate new tools and agronomic practices that improve efficiency and sustainability. A key factor can be identified in using resources or the competition of crops to resist biotic and abiotic stresses. Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) are of outstanding utility due to the multiple mechanisms with which they influence plant development. It ...
Biotechnological Applications of Endophytes in Agriculture, Environment and Industry
Endophytes are the plant symbionts that live inside the plant tissue without causing any symptoms of disease for a part of their life-cycle, as compared to the rhizosphere and phyllosphere microbes that live on the plant’s surface, and pathogens that cause disease. Bacteria and fungi are the two most common groups that are included in endophytes. They find their way into plants’ endosphere to become extremely important plant symbionts that improve metabolite profile, fitness and stress tolerance of the host. Endophytes are an important untapped reservoir of biological resources. During the last few decades, endophytes have attracted scientists working in the field of agriculture, environ...
