Microbial antibiotics take the lead in the fight against plant pathogens. [PDF]
The potential of plant microbiome for the development of novel biopesticides for the integrated pest management of agricultural crops. Abstract The plant microbiome is essential for plant fitness and health. Antibiotics produced by plant‐associated bacteria have been shown to play an important role in protecting plant hosts against phytopathogens. Here,

Efficiency of inorganic fungicides against the formation of Erysiphe necator chasmothecia in vineyards. [PDF]
Densities of chasmothecia from grape powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator) were significantly reduced by inorganic fungicides in commercial vineyards. Late applications of potassium bicarbonate were especially efficient. Abstract BACKGROUND A reduction in chasmothecia, an important inoculum of grape powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator Schwein.), is essential ...

Study of the different evaluation areas in the pesticide risk assessment process: Focus on pesticides based on microorganisms. [PDF]
Abstract Both chemical and microbial active substances can currently be approved as pesticides in the EU, the provisions of their approval being set under Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009. Although sharing the same legal framework, chemicals and microorganisms used as pesticides have different risk profiles especially because once released into the ...

Occurrence ofErysiphe necatorChasmothecia and Their Natural Parasitism byAmpelomyces quisqualis [PDF]
In northern Italy, Erysiphe necator overwinters almost exclusively as chasmothecia. From 2004 to 2008, we investigated the occurrence of natural parasitism of grapevine powdery mildew chasmothecia by Ampelomyces quisqualis in the Trentino-Alto Adige region, in northern Italy.
