Abstract
In the era of malnutrition and the global pandemic, food nutrients play a key role in the fight against the hidden hunger of the human population on the globe. This will give significant requirement of alternative scientific approach for biofortification in cereals like major staple and main course food of more than half of the population on earth. On the other side, Nanotechnology can have the potential to increase nutritional uptake and translocation of those imported and key nutrition in the grain of cereal crops. Among the different nanomaterials, the key important are nanoparticles of different essential macro and micronutrients in this technology. It will also facilitate the physiological development of plants during growth. In this short review cum communication article, the researched based evidence of those studies was framed to understand the nano biofortification phenomenon and other parameters of nutritional enhancement in cereals.
