Abstract

The emerging field of nanofertilizers and their potential applications in reducing plant virus infections has been emphasized. Nanofertilizers, characterized by their nanoscale size and customized nutrient delivery capabilities, offer a multifaceted approach to enhancing plant defense mechanisms, halting virus occurrence and enhancing crop health. The chapter covers current advancements in nanofertilizer formulations and delivery technologies, highlighting how these advancements could revolutionize strategies for controlling plant viral diseases. It also addresses key issues and considerations related to the development and use of nanofertilizers, such as safety and environmental impact. To deep our understanding of the antiviral properties of nanofertilizers and enhance their effectiveness in real-world agricultural settings, interdisciplinary research efforts will be crucial moving forward. Recent studies suggest that nanoparticles may be used as an antiviral medication as well as an activator of plant defense. This chapter outlines diverse applications of nanotechnology and provides an overview of research exploring its potential in combating viral infections.
