nanomaterials

4 articles

Nanomaterials are chemical substances or materials composed of units sized between 1 and 100 nanometers, placing them at a scale where unique physical and chemical properties emerge. In plant science, nanomaterials are studied for their ability to interact with plant cells at the molecular level, influencing nutrient uptake, stress responses, and growth regulation. Their small size enables targeted delivery of agrochemicals or genetic material, opening new avenues for precision agriculture and crop improvement.
