Potential of Biosynthesized Silver Nanoparticles (AgNPs) to Promote Growth and Control Plant Pathogenic Bacteria of Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera)
Nanotechnology has recently emerged as a rapidly growing area in science, medicine, disinfection, and agriculture. Bacteria pathogens affect lotus agriculture both in crop yield and economic loss. This study aimed to identify pathogen that caused brown leaf spot disease on the lotus and evaluate the antimicrobial efficacy in vitro of silver nanoparticles. Molecular based identification using 16S ribosomal DNA sequences revealed that…
