Economic and Eco-friendly Alternatives for the Efficient and Safe Management of Wheat Diseases

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Cereal Diseases: Nanobiotechnological Approaches for Diagnosis and Management

Abstract

The achievement of high cereal production while considering environmental and health safety standards is an essential goal for all countries to meet their own food needs and feed the rapidly growing population around the world. In this regard, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a strategic crop of great importance to global food security, especially in developing countries. It is even more important for the consumers of all sectors and regions where people rely on wheat as a significant element in their diets. However, several biotic and abiotic stress factors bring about the limiting and declining of local wheat production in return for the increasing needs of the growing population. To deal with such challenges, procedures allow for the use of agrochemicals as a means of achieving a high wheat yield. However, the unrestricted use of such chemicals causes serious damage to the agricultural ecosystem, particularly in those ecosystems that lack organic soil content and a high level of biodiversity, which help to restore its natural vigor after extensive use of agrochemicals. As a result, these demands to look for other eco-friendly alternatives will help us make satisfactory progress in controlling wheat disease and successfully restore and sustain our agricultural ecosystem. In this chapter, we’re going to talk about natural ways to boost the production of wheat cultivars by making them more able to fight off or at least tolerate wheat diseases.
