“…Also, the cross-linked network determines the size of the wall pores of dicotyledonous cells (Fleischer et al, 1999). The size of the cell wall prevents NMs from migrating further (Wu and Li, 2022). Therefore, it is crucial to comprehend the size of the cell wall pores (Carpita et al, 1979;Lew et al, 2018).…”

“…The interaction between nanomaterials and the membrane NPs must overcome the membrane barrier after passing through the cell wall (Wu and Li, 2022). The plasma membrane, a border membrane that encloses the contents of the cell, is normally 5-10 nm thick.…”

“…Similar to plant cell walls, the membrane potential plays a crucial role in controlling the flow of NPs through the membrane (Wu and Li, 2022). The plasma membrane potential is greater than that of the cell wall, at roughly −120 mV (Wu et al, 2013).…”

As the climate worsens and the demand for food grows, so does the interest in nanoagriculture. The interaction between plants and nanomaterials (NMs) has been extensively and intensively examined. However, stopping at the outcome of a phenomenon is often insufficient. Therefore, we introduce three important processes of nanoparticleplant interactions: translocation, transformation, and plant metabolism. During the migration of nanoparticles, size and surface electrical properties are the main determining factors. Additionally, the interaction of nanoparticles with cell membranes is another key aspect of research. The transformation of nanoparticles in plants is mainly due to redox substances. The way that nanoparticles affect plant metabolism may be able to shed light on the interaction of nanoparticles with plants. This review adds to the existing knowledge on the design of nanoagrochemicals and summarizes the mechanism of interaction of NMs with plants. In this way, NMs can be used for their beneficial effects and thus contribute to the maintenance of food security and sustainable development.

“…In addition, NPs with small size (<40 nm) may transport to the root xylem via the symplastic pathway. For NPs with relatively large sizes (100–1000 nm), the apoplast pathway may be the main transport pathway in plant roots (Wu & Li, 2022). Recent evidence suggests that PS particles more than 5 μm in size would hardly be taken up by roots in hydroponic, while PS MPs up to 2 μm were found in xylem sap and leaf vein of lettuce and wheat (Li, Luo, et al, 2020).…”

Nanoplastics (NPs) are accumulating in the soil environment at a rapid rate, which may cause serious consequences for ecosystems and human health. However, environmental behaviour and toxicity of NPs in the soil-plant system remain poorly understood. This review summarizes current studies on NP-plant interactions to unravel uptake mechanisms and phytotoxicity of NPs. NPs could be taken up by plant roots and transported upwards through the xylem to all organs of the plant, even to the edible parts such as the grain, thereby threatening human health.The interaction of NPs with plants affects plant transport of water and nutrients.Besides, it induces significant oxidative stress leading to inhibition of physiological and biochemical activities such as photosynthesis, and thus adversely affects plant growth and development. In addition, the co-transport of NPs with other soil pollutants may induce the combined toxic effects. This study also discussed the potential mechanism of NP-plant interactions based on previous experience with engineered nanomaterials. Finally, a comprehensive assessment of the key challenges in each area was presented, and future perspectives are offered.

“…The most common nanoparticles in the nature are clay particles, which have the colloidal properties as well. Nowadays, nano-agriculture has penetrated different branches of agriculture including plant nutrition (El-Ramady et al 2018;Rajput et al 2022), nano-enabled agriculture (Wu and Li 2022), nanofertilizers (Ibrahim and Hegab 2022;Shalaby et al 2022), nano-pesticides (Dangi andVerma 2021;Raj et al 2021;Singh et al 2022), nanosensors or nano-biosensors (Saravanakumar et al 2022), nano-food industries (Muthukrishnan 2022), nano-remediation of soil and water (Fei et al 2022), nanoparticles/nanomaterials for ameliorating stress on cultivated plants (Ghosh et al 2022), nanobiofortification for human health (El-Ramady et al 2021a, b), nano-farming (Behl et al 2022, and for sustainable agriculture (Hazarika et al 2022). Recently, many photographic reviews or minireviews have been published such as about smart farming (Fawzy and El-Ramady 2022), soil and humans , management of salt-affected soils (El-Ramady et al 2022b), a comparative review on higher plants and mushrooms (El-Ramady et al 2022c).…”

s a backbone of any nation, agriculture is the main supplier for our needed from food, feed, fiber and fuel. The production of vegetables is one of the main pillars of the agricultural production for human nutrition. This production nowadays has a serious problem, which may lead to many problems for human health. So, the "from farm to fork or F2F" initiative was launched last 2020 for healthy and eco-friendly food system. This study is a photographic mini-review on the strategy of F2F and the importance to produce healthy food like edible vegetables. The main targets of this strategy may include preventing food loss and waste, sustaining the production, and processing of food, its distribution, and consumption. The nano-farming expresses on using different nanomaterials in different agricultural practices of vegetables like nano-priming, nanofertilizers, nano-pesticides, nano-harvesting, and nano-postharvest. The current work was designed to answer about the main question: can nano-farming support the F2F strategy? More open questions will be presented in this review.
