biostudies-literatureUnknown13Danish MPlant-based synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) has emerged as a potential alternative to traditional chemical synthesis methods. In this context, the aim of the present study was to synthesize Ag-NPs from <i>Cassia fistula</i> (L.) leaf extract and to evaluate their nano-pesticidal potential against major phyto-pathogens of tomato. From the data, it was found that particle size of spherical <i>C. fistula</i> leaf synthesized (Ag@<i>Cf</i>L-NPs) varied from 10 to 20 nm, with the average diameter of 16 nm. Ag@<i>Cf</i>L-NPs were validated and characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy (surface resonance peak λ _<i>max</i> = 430 nm), energy dispersive spectrophotometer (EDX), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD), and electron microscopy; scannFrontiers in microbiology985852https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC9459237biostudies-literatureNano-pesticidal potential of <i>Cassia fistula</i> (L.) leaf synthesized silver nanoparticles (Ag@<i>Cf</i>L-NPs): Deciphering the phytopathogenic inhibition and growth augmentation in <i>Solanum lycopersicum</i> (L.).PMC9459237Danish MAtef Hatamleh ASingh UBMohamed AAhamad LRaees KAl-Dosary MAShahid MDanish SAl-Wasel YAfalseNano-pesticidal potential of <i>Cassia fistula</i> (L.) leaf synthesized silver nanoparticles (Ag@<i>Cf</i>L-NPs): Deciphering the phytopathogenic inhibition and growth augmentation in <i>Solanum lycopersicum</i> (L.).Plant-based synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) has emerged as a potential alternative to traditional chemical synthesis methods.
