摘要： Food crops are attacked by microbial pathogens and insect pests, leading to significant yield reductions and economic losses. Conventional disease diagnosis and management approaches often fail to provide rapid and eco-friendly solutions. In the current situation, nanomaterials (NMs) serve a valuable role in both managing emerging pathogens and monitoring overall plant health. Nanotechnology has transformed the biotechnology industry including agriculture with specific applications such as nano-fungicides, nano-bactericides, and nano-pesticides. This review focuses on the use of various nanomaterials, including inorganic materials such as Ag, ZnO, CuO, and CeO, as well as carbon-based nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanowires, and nano-capsules. The application of NMs holds the potential to address various challenges in food security through novel applications like advanced nano-biosensors for rapid pathogen detection and targeted disease management strategies. This includes the potential to minimize reliance on chemical inputs and contribute to more sustainable agricultural practices. Nanomaterials (NMs) promise to deliver plant hormones and signaling molecules to plants, enhancing resistance inducers against major crop pathogens. NMs against newly arising pathogens through reactive oxygen generation, membrane damage, and biochemical interference are also reviewed. However, challenges regarding the stability, toxicity, and environmental impacts of NMs are discussed, along with recommendations on green synthesis and functionalization approaches. This article aims to investigate the role of nanomaterials (NMs) in managing emerging pathogens and monitoring overall crop health offering an insightful outlook for future generations. Further biosafety aspects and larger-scale validation of NM-based applications could enable their commercialization for improving global food security.
