Abstract

‘]

In the last decades, nanotechnology has emerged as a new field of technology because of its unique  qualities. The use of chemicals in medicines and agriculture such as fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, and insecticides are very harmful to the environment so by the use of this revolutionary technology we  can reduce the toxic effects on the environment. However, a biological method is very easy, simple, and  free from any chemical hazards, and very eco-friendly biological entities like bacteria, fungi, algae, and plants are used in the biological synthesis of CuNPs. Different plant parts such as roots, stems,  fruit, flowers, and leaves are used in the biosynthesis of NPs. CuNPs exhibited positive effects at lower concentrations but at higher concentrations exhibited toxic effects in the environment. In agriculture, CuNPs protect plants from abiotic and biotic stress conditions. CuNPs reduce the plant pathogens’ growth by the generation of oxidative stress. CuNPs enhanced the plant growth and yield but at the  same at higher concentrations created phytotoxicity in plants. Additionally, CuNPs taken by the plant  tissue accumulated in plants which is a serious issue for human beings. Most advanced application of  biosynthesized CuNPs management of plant diseases. CuNPs can be used as nano-fungicides,  nematicides, and pesticides to increase agriculture production. In this paper, we focus on the biosynthesis, and positive and negative impacts of CuNPs and also provide knowledge and importance  of the CuNPs in various fields like medicine and agriculture, in medicine act as anticancer and anti diabetic agents.
