Nanotechnology for Rice Fungal Diseases

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Modern Techniques of Rice Crop Production

Abstract

Rice is being used as an important source of food by a large number of people. Its production needs to be maintained to feed the increasing number of people on this planet. Various diseases are affecting this important source of food and decreasing both quality and quantity. Fungal diseases contribute a lot in this regard. Many methods have been adopted over the years to combat the diseases of rice. Use of resistant varieties and fertilizers have helped to increase yield. Similarly, chemical fungicides have been used at an immense scale to control the fungal diseases. All these techniques helped to manage the diseases, but on the other hand also raised many concerns. Surplus use of chemicals has always been a hazard for the environment. Excessive use of certain chemicals and fertilizers indeed increased the susceptibility of rice to certain fungal diseases. Use of chemical-based fungicides over the years has developed resistance in fungi toward these fungicides. We have now come across many new methodologies to managing the fungal diseases of rice like use of Nanotechnology. In this chapter, needs and benefits of nanotechnology in the management of rice fungal diseases have been discussed. This chapter focuses on major fungal diseases of rice and their management using various nanotechnological methods like use of nanoparticles.
