“…Enzymes can operate as biocatalysts in the reduction of metal ions to produce NPs when the reaction conditions are favorable. 47 Because of their unique catalytic capabilities, enzymes can preferentially attach to metal ions and facilitate their reduction, resulting in the generation of NPs. Reductases, oxidases, and dehydrogenases are frequently used as enzymes in this process due to their ability to transport electrons and speed up the reduction of metal ions through the utilization of co-factors such Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) or Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH).…”

“…When biomolecules and metal ions interact, the metal ions are reduced and NPs are created. 47 , 55 NPs are produced using the bioactive compounds that have been extracted using extraction methods from the waste materials. The affordability, cost-effectiveness, and ability to modify the properties of NPs are only a few benefits of this synthesis technique.…”

Plant diseases are caused by various pathogenic microorganisms, leading to substantial economic losses and food insecurity worldwide. However, the extensive use of chemical-based nanopesticides has adverse effects on plants, soil, and environmental systems. There is increasing interest in developing eco-friendly and sustainable alternatives to manage plant diseases. Recently, microbe-mediated nanoparticles (NPs) as nanopesticides have attracted the interest of cultivators, specifically in plant disease management, compared to traditional physical and chemical approaches. This review focuses on the state-of-the-art formulations of nanopesticides by using microorganisms against bacterial and fungal phytopathogens. The article discusses the various mechanisms through which these microbes contribute to the enhanced effectiveness of NPs, including the production of bioactive compounds, improved nanoparticle synthesis, and the facilitation of targeted delivery. The review also highlights the advantages of using microbe-mediated nanopesticides, such as reduced environmental toxicity, increased biodegradability, and the potential to manage pesticide-resistant pathogens. Overall, the use of microbe-mediated NPs is an inexpensive, reliable, and eco-friendly approach for plant disease management.
