An overview of nanobiotechnology. Convergence of nanotechnology and biotechnology results in nanobiotech, which entails knowledge of structural engineering and genetic engineering. Nanobiotechnologies are used for different purposes in agriculture, including smart monitoring (nanosensors), target delivery of nucleic acid (gene transfer) and plant pathogen detection (nanodiagnostics).
