“…Naturally found in plants, soil, and aquatic environments, these molecules can serve as carbon and energy sources for microorganisms . Natural molecules exhibit lower toxicity toward nontarget organisms than conventional formulations. ,− In addition, formulations that ensure reliable soil management are indispensable to avoid problems with water and nutrient availability and, consequently, with crop health . For example, Adetunji et al isolated the metabolite 2-(hydroxymethyl) phenol extracted from the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa C1501.…”

Bioherbicides, also known as nature-based herbicides, play a crucial role in sustainable agriculture by effectively inhibiting weed growth and development. They help increase crop productivity by reducing competition between plants for nutrients, water, and light. Their eco-friendly nature sets bioherbicides apart, promoting environmentally conscious farming practices. Despite their numerous benefits, many bioherbicide compounds are inherently unstable and susceptible to environmental degradation by temperature, light, humidity, and microbial activity, thus posing challenges for effective weed management. To address this issue, a growing emphasis has been placed on encapsulation strategies in recent years. Encapsulation techniques offer several advantages for bioherbicides, including enhanced efficacy, sustainable biological compound release, environmental factor protection, and shelf life improvement. Polymers, particularly biopolymers, are promising materials for bioherbicide encapsulation in micro-/nanoparticles. These particles are specifically designed for the targeted delivery of bioherbicides, ensuring effective crop protection and weed management. Micro-/nanotechnology incorporation in encapsulated formulation development has revealed their notable potential. This study focuses on the latest developments in the encapsulation of bioherbicides into micro-/nanoparticles and their practical application for weed management. By leveraging micro-/nanotechnology, researchers aim to maximize bioherbicidal application and efficacy, paving the way for sustainable agricultural weed management practices. The findings of this study may serve as a reference for expanding the use of micro-/nanotechnology-associated bioherbicides for providing potential sustainable weed control solutions.

“…However, they can produce bioactive compounds (which include volatile and non-volatile secondary metabolites) with phytotoxic properties, which can be exploited in agriculture for weed control [ 132 , 133 ]. Luckily, the bioactive compounds produced by fungi are quite specific against weeds, which minimizes the effects on cultivated plants [ 131 , 133 ].…”

The literature is full of studies reporting environmental and health issues related to using traditional pesticides in food production and storage. Fortunately, alternatives have arisen in the last few decades, showing that organic agriculture is possible and economically feasible. And in this scenario, fungi may be helpful. In the natural environment, when associated with plants, these microorganisms offer plant-growth-promoting molecules, facilitate plant nutrient uptake, and antagonize phytopathogens. It is true that fungi can also be phytopathogenic, but even they can benefit agriculture in some way—since pathogenicity is species-specific, these fungi are shown to be useful against weeds (as bioherbicides). Finally, plant-associated yeasts and molds are natural biofactories, and the metabolites they produce while dwelling in leaves, flowers, roots, or the rhizosphere have the potential to be employed in different industrial activities. By addressing all these subjects, this manuscript comprehensively reviews the biotechnological uses of plant-associated fungi and, in addition, aims to sensitize academics, researchers, and investors to new alternatives for healthier and more environmentally friendly production processes.
