“…The efficiency of mycogenic silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) generated from Fusarium pallidoroseum biomass was examined against a potent sugarcane pest in western Uttar Pradesh, which is called white grubs, Holotrichia serrata . In vitro, the AgNPs were given to third instar white grub larvae, and the fatal dosage (LD50) was calculated using Probit analysis, which was then confirmed and determined to be significant at the 0.05 level using the chi-square test [ 104 ]. Sargassum myriocystum , a marine natural resource seaweed, was employed in this study because of its distinct phytochemicals and major features in providing excellent responses to numerous biological applications.…”

Nanoparticles synthesis through biological mediated methods with a particular focus on the processes mediated by fungi and algae is discussed, which systematically reviews nanoparticle characterization, composition, synthesis methods, and, lastly but not least, the applications of NPs across five different categories to provide a reference for future research. Most traditional methods to generate nanoparticles have certain limitations, like the toxicity of precursor materials, the need for high-temperature management, and the high cost of synthesis, which ultimately hinders their utility in sectors. Greener synthesis through fungus and algae done through bioreduction by biomolecules or enzymes present in them is low-energy, low-cost, and needs a low-temperature environment, providing a unique technique for the manufacture of various metallic nanoparticles utilized in an array of industries and healthcare.

“…In addition, it becomes clear to us the power of AgNPs and their ability to improve the effectiveness of the biological component in killing mosquito larvae ( Thelma and Balasubramanian, 2021 ; Shukla et al, 2022 ). Aside from their environmental friendliness, cost-effectiveness, and target-specific sensitivity, green synthetic nanoparticles have recently been at the forefront of efforts to develop a safe insecticide.…”

Biosynthetic metals have attracted global attention because of their safety, affordability, and environmental friendliness. As a consequence, the cell-free filtrate (CFF) of Dill leaf-derived endophytic fungus Aspergillus luchuensis was employed for the extracellularly synthesis silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). A reddish-brown color shift confirmed that AgNPs were successfully produced. The obtained AgNPs were characterized by UV–Vis (ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), FTIR, EDX, and zeta potential. Results demonstrated the creation of crystalline AgNPs with a spherical shape at 427.81 nm in the UV–Vis spectrum, and size ranged from 16 to 18 nm as observed by TEM. Additionally, the biogenic AgNPs had a promising antibacterial activity versus multidrug-resistant bacteria, notably, S. aureus, E. coli, and S. typhi. The highest growth reduction was recorded in the case of E. coli. Furthermore, the biosynthesized AgNPs demonstrated potent antifungal potential versus a variety of harmful fungi. The maximum growth inhibition was evaluated from A. brasinsilles, followed by C. albicans as compared to cell-free extract and AgNO3. In addition, data revealed that AgNPs possess powerful antioxidant activity, and their ability to scavenge radicals increased from 33.0 to 85.1% with an increment in their concentration from 3.9 to 1,000 μg/mL. Furthermore, data showed that AgNPs displayed high catalytic activity of safranin under light irradiation. The maximum decolorization percentage (100%) was observed after 6 h. Besides, the biosynthesized AgNPs showed high insecticidal potential against 3rd larval instar of Culex pipiens. Taken together, data suggested that endophytic fungus, A. luchuensis, is an attractive candidate as an environmentally sustainable and friendly fungal nanofactory.

“…Moreover, fungi have wider diversity range than other 7 microbial reducers (Rao et al, 2017). Mycosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) has been reported by silver nitrate (AgNO3) as precursor salt, which has been reduced by following fungal supernatants: Aspergillus terreus (Verma et al, 2010), Fusarium acuminatum (Premnath et al, 2021), Fusarium pallidoroseum (Shukla et al, 2022) were formed and studied by their applications mentioned in Table 2. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have been reported as a comprehensive range of research tools in the biomedical, health and agriculture sector due to their biostability and compatibility.…”

Cereals are an important source of nutrients for animals. Several diseases cause severe yield loss in cereal crops. Bacterial diseases result in varying yield losses across cereals: Wheat (5-40%), maize (15-98.9%), rice (20-70%), pearl millet (3-35%), and oats (15-49%). Diseases may be bacterial diseases, fungal or viral. Bacterial diseases are traditionally treated by pesticides. Chemically synthesized pesticides are toxic and hazardous to the environment. Nanotechnology is emerging and novel field for agriculture, especially in plant pathology as a strong antimicrobial agent. Nanoparticles have been synthesized in various ways i.e., biological, physical, and chemical methods. Chemical and physical methods of nanoparticles are costly and toxic to the environment. The biological method for the synthesis of nanoparticles is eco-friendly and economical. Microorganisms or plant extracts are used for metal nanoparticle synthesis. The application of nanoparticles in agriculture has a wide scope and it can bring nano-revolution. This review summarizes the antibacterial activity of biosynthesized metal nanoparticles and their role in bacterial disease management of cereals.
