Nanomaterials in the Soil-Plant Continuum

Nanomaterials in the Soil-Plant Continuum, 1st Edition is an academic textbook examining how naturally generated and engineered nanomaterials behave within agricultural ecosystems. Designed for advanced-level students in agricultural, soil, and environmental nanotechnology, this volume clarifies physical and biological transport across plant and soil interfaces to establish core domain knowledge.

The thematic structure tracks particle movement starting from nanomaterial transformation in soil environments. It details uptake mechanisms through both root and leaf tissues, followed by internal translocation and cellular biotransformation. The text further addresses metabolic responses within plant systems and documents how these materials re-enter environmental cycles through plant litter.

As part of the Nanomaterial-Plant Interactions series, this work supports advanced degree programs and upper-level agricultural coursework. It provides plant scientists and scholarly researchers with a clear analytical framework for studying nanoparticle dynamics in real-world contexts.
