Eighty‐four endophytic bacteria from cassava were assessed for antagonistic activity against phytopathogens Colletotrichum siamense, Colletotrichum sublineola and Phytophthora infestans infecting cassava, sorghum and potato, respectively. Fourteen endophytic bacteria exhibited antifungal activity against the three phytopathogens, of which four ...

ABSTRACT Colletotrichum spp., hemibiotrophic fungal pathogens, threaten global strawberry production. Jasmonate (JA) regulates plant‐Colletotrichum interactions, but its mechanisms remain unclear. Here we demonstrate that both exogenous methyl jasmonate (MeJA) treatment and elevated endogenous MeJA levels increase strawberry susceptibility to ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Narrow‐leaved lupins (NLL, Lupinus angustifolius L.) is recognized as a climate‐resilient protein crop but its use in food and feed is frequently limited by toxic quinolizidine alkaloids (QAs). The effect of intercropping with spring oat (Avena sativa L.) on grain QA content has not yet been quantified.

Abstract Ethiopia is Africa's second‐largest sorghum producer [Sorghum bicolor (L.) moench]. Despite these potentials, the production and productivity of sorghum yield remained low due to many agricultural factors. Among the factors, sorghum anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum sublineolum is one of the main fungal diseases substantially reducing ...

Polymorphism of the Rca2 anthracnose resistance gene in strawberry cultivars (Fragaria × ananassa)
Background. Anthracnose, caused by phytopathogenic fungi of the genus Colletotrichum, is one of the most important strawberry diseases. Strawberry yield losses from anthracnose lesions can reach 80%.

Abstract Genetic variability plays a crucial role in plant breeding programs aimed at improving yield and yield‐related traits. The objective of this study was to assess the genetic variability and character association among common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) genotypes for yield and related agronomic traits.

Abstract Objectively selecting genotypes using genomic predictions for multiple traits warrants more empirical research. This study investigated how deployment of genomic prediction within the Clemson sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] breeding program would help to develop hybrids adapted to the eastern United States.

Abstract Honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) are an important class of insects that are the most beneficial in terms of economy. Beeswax is the second most important bee products after honey. Its commercial importance is due to its antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and antiseptic as well as regenerative properties.

In Vitro and In Planta Botanical Control of Banana Postharvest Disease Causing Fungi
Botanical (Aloevera + Garlic) extract reduced the L. theobromae growth (in vitro) and postharvest disease (crown‐rot and brown spot or fruit freckle) development (in planta) in banana without any adverse effect on the physiochemical properties such as weight, colour, firmness and TSS.
