Nanotechnology permits advance research in several areas and opens a large scope in the field of biotechnology and agriculture industry due to unique physiochemical properties. To fulfill the increasing demand of world population higher agricultural productivity is needed to boost the yield. This review presents the current literature and key role of nanoparticles on plant growth, development and yield. The synthesis of nanoparticles by green method with the use of plant extract which is nontoxic, cost effective, ecofriendly over physical and chemical methods. Phytochemical constituents in the plant extract such as phenols, proteins, flavonoids, carbohydrates, alkaloids and amino acids is responsible for the reduction of size of nanoparticles. |
