Evaluation of ALA-capped silver, copper, and silver-copper nanoparticles for controlling fungal plant pathogens.

Phytopathogenic fungi significantly threaten global food security, causing substantial yield and quality losses. Sustainable solutions are urgently needed to combat these agricultural pathogens. This study explored the potential of silver (Ag), copper (Cu), and combined Ag/Cu nanoparticles capped with aminolevulinic acid (ALA) as antifungal agents.
