Controlled incubation, leachate, and pot assays of shrimp shell‐based compost for suppressing Verticillium dahliae in olive

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Shrimp shell compost suppresses Verticillium dahliae microsclerotia, enhances chitinase activity, lowers olive wilt severity and improves plant recovery under controlled conditions. Abstract BACKGROUND Verticillium wilt of olive (Olea europaea L.), caused by Verticillium dahliae Kleb., is difficult to manage because long‐lived microsclerotia persist in

Biocontrol and plant growth‐promoting potential of Streptomyces strains against fungal pathogens of tomato and wheat for a sustainable agriculture

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study highlights the biocontrol potential of Streptomyces strain Strep_22. In vitro, it inhibits key fungal pathogens by 91.52%. In vivo, it significantly reduces disease incidence in wheat and tomato while enhancing biomass, shoot, and root development, offering a highly promising, sustainable ecological alternative to chemical pesticides ...

UV mutagenesis‐enhanced Streptomyces nogalater produces a novel streptothricin‐like compound with strong activity against cabbage soft rot

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
UV mutagenesis of Streptomyces sp. KRA0514‐6 yielded HL‐3, a novel streptothricin‐like compound (C17H29N7O8) with N‐methylglycine replacing β‐lysine, achieving 100% cabbage soft rot control at >1 ppm concentration. Abstract BACKGROUND A total of 1000 soil‐derived actinomycetes were isolated and screened for antibacterial activity against Pectobacterium

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

IgE‐Binding Bacterial Components Not Yet Documented in the Allergen Databases and Their Allergenic Mechanisms: An EAACI Position Paper

Allergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Among bacteria that are associated with the development and/or exacerbation of allergic/atopic diseases, several have been described to produce IgE‐binding components. However, only one bacterial protein, Bac s 1, is currently listed in the official database of the World Health Organization/International Union of Immunological Societies (WHO ...

Re‐thinking peripheral dysfunctions in obesity: The emerging role of sulphaceutics and sulphanutraceutics

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Obesity is a chronic, relapsing, multisystem disease in which cardiometabolic risk arises from excess adiposity and progressive dysfunction of peripheral organs, ultimately disrupting endocrine and metabolic crosstalk among tissues. Within this network, sulphur‐based biology, centred on hydrogen sulphide and related reactive sulphur species, has ...
