Nanotechnology for Abiotic Stress Tolerance and Management in Crop Plants reviews the most recent literature on the role of nanomaterials in achieving sustainability in crop production in stressful environments. The book explores the adverse conditions caused by abiotic stress to crop plants and the methods by which these conditions can be potentially overcome through developments in nanoscience and nanotechnology. Abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, temperature stress, excessive water, heavy metal stress, and UV stress are major factors which may adversely affect the growth, development, and yield of crops.While recent research for ways of overcoming the physiological and biochemical changes brought on by these stresses has focused on genetic engineering of plants, additional research continues into alternative strategies to develop stress tolerant crops, including the use of nanoscience and nanotechnology.
Presents advancements in our understanding of molecular and physiological interactions between nanoparticles and crop plantsIncludes figures and illustrations to help readers visualize and easily understand the role of nanomaterialsServes as an ideal reference for those studying smart nanomaterials, biosensors, and nanodevices for real-time plant stress measurement2 662 kr

Millets are popularly known as “nutri-cereals” due to their high calcium, dietary fiber, polyphenol, vitamins, and protein content. Millet crops have the potential to aid in food security efforts in regions where natural and manmade causes are deteriorating land resources. Nutriomics of Millet Crops emphasizes the importance of nutriomics of millet crops in the context of universal health, highlighting biotechnological advancements offering enrichment of the nutritional value of millets. Millet crops have the potential to be a staple crop, demonstrating an economically feasible approach to combat micronutrient malnutrition.
Features:
Presents comprehensive studies on health-promoting nutritional components of millets. Provides enumeration on molecular breeding strategies for improvement of millet nutraceuticals. Discusses genomics-assisted breeding for enhancement of nutritional quality in millets. Includes information related to sensory and biofortification of millet-based foods.By assessing the relevance of millets in sustainable global agro-ecosystems due to their nutritional and agronomic attributes, the United Nations celebrated 2023 as the “International Year of Millets.” This book complements this effort and is useful to researchers and policy planners working across the disciplines of plant breeding and food technology. Nutriomics of Millet Crops also encourages young researchers to explore this promising field.

This book reviews the application of nanosensors in food and agriculture. Nanotechnology has the potential to become transformative technology that will impact almost all sectors. Tools like nanosensors, which detect specific molecular interactions, can be used for on-site, in-situ and online measurements of various parameters in clinical diagnostics, environmental and food monitoring, and quality control.
Due to their unprecedented performance and sensitivity, nanobiosensors are gaining importance in precision farming. The book examines the use of nanobiosensors in the monitoring of food additives, toxins and mycotoxins, microbial contamination, food allergens, nutritional constituents, pesticides, environmental parameters, plant diseases and genetically modified organisms. It also discusses the role of biosensors in increasing crop productivity in sustainable agriculture, and nanosensor-based smart delivery systems to optimize the use of natural resources such as water, nutrients and agrochemicals in precision farming.

Microbial diversity and microbial technology are critical to achieving most of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), mainly due to their central role in the provision and regulation of ecosystem services. Despite this intensification of effort, more than 90% of microbial diversity remains to be discovered. Thus, the most unique characteristic of microbial technology is the exceptional diversity of applications it can address and the range of human activities and needs to which it is and can be applied. Separately, nanotechnology and microbiology have produced innovative solutions for human well-being and ecological and environmental equilibrium. The development of interdisciplinary research practices combining nanotechnology and microbiology to deliver creative solutions for human health and environmental and ecological damage is urgently required. The nanotechnology of microorganisms is contributing to the development and innovation of numerous industries.
This book will explain the fundamentals and methods of the biological production of nanoparticles from microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, and algae. It will describe optimization strategies for microbe-mediated nanoparticle production. The book will also discuss the industrial and agricultural applications of nanoparticles produced by microbes. It also describes the applications of green nanoparticles in the health and pharmaceutical sectors, such as the treatment of multidrug-resistant infections and cancer.
Overall, the book focuses on the broad subject areas of microbial nanotechnology and its possible applications in food, pharmaceuticals, water, environmental remediation, etc. However, the lack of information and the potential for negative effects on the environment, human health, safety, and sustainability remain obstacles. This book addresses these issues. Researchers and students in the agricultural sciences, materials sciences, biotechnology, microbiology, and pharmaceutical sectors will find this an invaluable resource.
