Conventional storage methods often fail to preserve the nutritional quality of grains and seeds, leading to substantial losses. In this context, nanotechnology offers promising alternatives by providing efficient pest management and extending the shelf life of stored products. Nanomaterials (NMs) and nanoformulations (NFs) have shown unique properties such as enhanced barrier effects, controlled release, and structural stability, which are critical in mitigating insect pest infestations. The correlation between the physicochemical properties of NMs and their functional responses in pest management is essential to optimize their application. Additionally, NMs interact at the cellular and molecular levels within pest systems, disrupting key biological processes, which enhances their pest control efficiency. This review explores the latest trends in the development and application of different NMs in pest management, emphasizing their potential to regulate environmental conditions, which significantly reduce postharvest losses. The market adoption of NMs for storage pest control is growing, driven by increasing evidence of their effectiveness and sustainability. As climate change and global protein demand escalate, there is an urgent need to transition to nanotechnology-based storage solutions to ensure a sustainable food supply. This framework highlights how NMs and NFs can provide critical advancements in storage management, contributing to food security goals worldwide.","PeriodicalId":93846,"journal":{"name":"ACS agricultural science & technology","volume":"5 6","pages":"905–929 905–929"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144290381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Freeze–thaw technique was utilized for the gelation process using epichlorohydrin (ECH) as a cross-linker. The synthesized hydrogel [Formulation: 0.1 g of RSC, 0.3 g of CMTKG and 1 mL of ECH] achieved the highest equilibrium swelling ratio of ∼7722% at ∼18 °C in distilled water. Crucially, this hydrogel was upcycled from agricultural waste (rice straw and tamarind seeds). Thus, it is biofriendly and suitable for agricultural applications. The hydrogel-incorporated soil showed a 33% higher maximum water-holding capacity (MWHC) and a 23% higher bulk density (BD), compared with the control. When manganese (Mn) was loaded into the hydrogels, it demonstrated ∼80% Mn release after 184 h in distilled water. Release kinetics showed that the Peppas–Sahlin model was the best-fit model, indicating the release of Mn from the CMTKG-RSC hydrogel matrix with polymer relaxation and Fickian diffusion. The Mn-loaded hydrogel exhibited ∼80% Mn release in soil after 9 days, and release kinetics indicated that the Peppas–Sahlin model was the best-fit model. Furthermore, the Mn-loaded hydrogel significantly enhanced the growth of blackberry plants in pot trials compared to the control group.","PeriodicalId":93846,"journal":{"name":"ACS agricultural science & technology","volume":"5 6","pages":"1132–1144 1132–1144"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144290429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its feeding behavior on phloem sap and secretion of honeydew on leaves leads to the accumulation of mold, which impairs photosynthesis and fruit quality. Additionally, it transmits more than 100 plant viruses, which interfere with plant growth and reduce crop productivity. In this work, we targeted the ecdysone receptor (EcR) of B. tabaci, as it is involved in metamorphosis, cell differentiation, and reproduction processes. The EcR sequence was retrieved from the UniProt database (A0A142K0N3), and multiple sequence alignment (MSA) revealed that the ligand-binding domain is conserved among other plant-destroying pests and insects. The EcR structure of B. tabaci (PDB ID: 1Z5X) was used for high-throughput virtual screening with 32,552 secondary metabolites, retrieved from the NPAtlas 2.0 database using iDock 2.2.3. The top 40 metabolites were selected based on their predicted binding energy by iDock 2.2.3 and redocked using AutoDock Vina 1.1.2. The complexes of the top four compounds with EcR were selected for molecular dynamics simulation (total simulation time: 0.5 μs) and compared with the apo-EcR structure. Additionally, umbrella sampling simulations were performed for 1.64 μs. The insecticide-like properties and toxicity of the four metabolites were compared with conventional pesticides such as ponasterone A. Our computational predictions suggest that NPA008492, NPA006374, NPA012964, and NPA012752 are potential lead molecules and promising candidates for experimental validation.","PeriodicalId":93846,"journal":{"name":"ACS agricultural science & technology","volume":"5 6","pages":"1096–1104 1096–1104"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.acs.org/doi/epdf/10.1021/acsagscitech.5c00066","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144290410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cumin has been identified as a particularly problematic matrix regarding PA contamination, frequently exceeding the European Union (EU) regulatory limits. However, the botanical causes of PA contamination in cumin remain largely unknown. In the current study, 74 authentic cumin samples provided by vendors were analyzed for PAs and TAs using LC-MS and screened for PA-producing plants using qPCR. Analytes were detected in all samples, with 18 exceeding the EU regulatory PA limit. The identified PAs predominantly matched those typically found in European heliotrope (Heliotropium europaeum). However, qPCR did not detect known PA- or TA-producing plants and therefore did not align with the LC-MS findings. The clear indication of a specific plant responsible for PA contamination in cumin could help manufacturers improve weed control and minimize product contamination in the future.","PeriodicalId":93846,"journal":{"name":"ACS agricultural science & technology","volume":"5 6","pages":"1145–1153 1145–1153"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.acs.org/doi/epdf/10.1021/acsagscitech.5c00104","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144290408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The nanodelivery techniques have contributed significantly to this aspect with the support of various nanocarriers, whereas porous silica nanocarriers have shown promise for guest molecule delivery. In pesticide delivery, adsorption plays a crucial role in regulating the loading efficiency and release pattern. This study investigates the adsorption process of imidacloprid onto a widely used porous silica nanomaterial, MCM-41. The synthesis and structural characterizations of MCM-41 were confirmed through X-ray diffraction (XRD), surface area and porosity analysis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) before and after calcination. The synthesized MCM-41 nanomaterials showed a uniform mesoporous structure with a high surface area of 819.10 m2/g. Batch adsorption studies revealed favorable interactions between MCM-41 and imidacloprid, showing a high adsorption capacity of 104.31 mg/g, followed by effective reversibility, with 65% of the adsorbed amount released over five cycles. Physisorption, especially weak hydrogen bond interaction, played a key role during adsorption to the energetically heterogeneous MCM-41 surface. The favorable adsorption–desorption of imidacloprid to MCM-41 signifies the potential of MCM-41 to act as a carrier for imidacloprid delivery. Overall, this study paves the way for the agro-industrial application of MCM-41 in pesticide delivery.","PeriodicalId":93846,"journal":{"name":"ACS agricultural science & technology","volume":"5 6","pages":"1154–1167 1154–1167"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144290409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

GC/GC–MS analysis of the extract and fractions identified 46 compounds, including fatty acids and phenolics. Moreover, the nematicidal activity of 24 selected authentic compounds exhibited more than 80 to 100% mortality of M. javanica with a minimum 0.0612 ppm LC50 at 0.125% of 0.1 mg/5 mL after 72 h, seven of which have been identified in the present studies. The nematicidal results revealed that fatty acids and their derivatives, phenolics and flavonoids, the inherent chemical constituents of C. reflexa, act synergistically to enhance the extract’s promising nematicidal activity.
