Field Application Approaches

Plant viral diseases represent a major global threat to food security, necessitating the development and implementation of innovative, effective, and sustainable management strategies. Nanoparticles (NPs) have become a significant candidate to plant viral disease management using several application methods. Among them, foliar spray is the most practical approach since it allows the direct interaction of NPs with the plant surfaces along with systematic translocation, Soil amendment strategies utilize the soil matrix as a NPs reservoir, and Nanopriming of seeds is not only a protective seedling way of management but also a more proactive method of seedling management. The present research outlines the potential of the future based on NPs-based strategies as a potential solution to the challenge of plant viral pathogens management. These treatments enforce plant defense and improve the absorption of nutrients. Future studies should focus on the customizable delivery mechanisms, and the traditional management strategies to define their efficacy and survival in crop protection.
