  • Foliar application of glycine‐functionalized nanopesticides for effective prevention and control of root‐knot nematodes via a targeted delivery strategy Ximing Zhong Guofeng Su Li Hao Huayao Chen Chao Li Hua Xu Hongjun Zhou Xinhua Zhou Pest Management Science AbstractBACKGROUNDRoot‐knot nematodes (RKNs) are the highly damaging pests for various crops, and the prevalence of RKNs has posed serious threats to worldwide agricultural harvest, severely affecting global food security and ecosystem health. Traditional pesticide systems on controlling RKNs generally cause environmental hazards and phytotoxicity due to the excessive use of pesticides resulted from low utilization efficiency. And effective approaches with biosafe and efficient features are highly demanded to break away from the dilemma caused by RKNs.RESULTSIn this research, a nanopesticide system with root‐targeted delivery function was developed to achieve effective prevention and control of RKNs. The nanocarriers (MSN‐KH560‐Gly) and the obtained nanopesticides (EB@MSN‐KH560‐Gly) were proved to be biosafe. Also, this nanopesticide system demonstrated sustained release behavior. The grafting of glycine (Gly) significantly improved the pesticide contents translocating to cucumber roots (about 304.7%). Besides, such root‐targeted delivery function resulted in no root nodule in cucumber plants after the foliar application of these nanopesticides (prevention rate of 100%). In addition, the root nodule numbers of the infected cucumber plants decreased by 71.67%.CONCLUSIONFoliar application of these Gly‐functionalized nanopesticides achieved effective prevention and control of RKNs due to the root‐targeted delivery property inherent in this nanopesticide system, and such root‐targeted delivery strategy opens a novel and efficient method to protect crops from RKN invasion and thus facilitates the development of sustainable agriculture. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry. 10.1002/ps.7948 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor
