Different metal nanoparticles have been studied for their antifungal properties (Gogos et al. 2012). Silver nanoparticles have shown antifungal inhibition of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Alternaria alternata, Rhizoctonia solani, Macrophomina phaseolina, Curvularia lunata, and Botrytis cinereal by well diffusion assay causing infections in plants (Krishnaraj et al. 2012). Also, Silver nanoparticles showed antifungal activity against Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus parasiticus, Fusarium solani, R. solani, Candida albicans, Candida glabrata, and Candida tropicalis (Asghar et al. 2018; Khatami et al. 2018). Chitosan nanoparticles have shown antifungal activities, such as controlling Botrytis bunch rot in grapes, Fusarium crown, root rot in tomato, and Phyricularia grisea in rice (Kashyap et al. 2015).
