Effect of Carbon Nanomaterials on Soil and Plant Microbiome
摘要
Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) are emerging as transformative tools in agriculture due to their exceptional properties, including low toxicity, biocompatibility, and enhanced electron mobility. These materials hold promise for improving soil health, boosting plant productivity, and addressing key challenges in modern farming. CNMs have been shown to enhance plant germination, nutrient uptake, and growth, even under stress, with the potential to revolutionize crop production. However, the interactions between CNMs, soil ecosystems, and plant-microbe dynamics remain insufficiently understood. This review explores how CNMs, derived from sustainable biomass sources such as fruits, vegetables, microorganisms, and biowastes, affect soil microbiomes, nutrient cycling, and plant resilience. We examine both the positive and negative impacts of CNMs on soil and plant health, highlighting the complexity of these interactions. Additionally, we address concerns about toxicity and environmental risks, while identifying key research gaps necessary for the safe and effective application of CNMs in agriculture. This review aims to provide insights into CNMs potential to reshape agricultural practices and guide future research for sustainable farming.
