In Vitro Inhibition of Rhizoctonia oryzae-sativae Using Bacterial Strains as a Sustainable Alternative for Controlling Sheath Blight in Rice

International Journal of Plant Biology
The control of ‘sheath blight’ in rice (Oryza sativa L.), which is caused by the fungus Rhizoctonia oryzae-sativae, has become problematic due to the excessive application of fungicides and their consequent harmful effects.

Compounds produced by two robust Bacillus amyloliquefaciens biocontrol strains involved in antimicrobial activity and plant-growth promotion [PDF]

, 2015
Several members of the Bacillus genus are potential candidates to be used as biological control agents to combat pests or plant diseases. The bacterial attributes associated to Bacillus behaviour are mainly: the production of antimicrobial compounds, the

Evolutionary ecology, antibiosis, and all that rot [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008
Pity members of the Animal Kingdom. They must compete for prey that hide, defend themselves, or run away. This competition only intensifies when such prey die uneaten. The carcasses and leaves strewn across the landscape are now available to microbial competitors that are everywhere, grow rapidly, and know how to poison.

Mycoparasitic capabilities of diverse native strain of Trichoderma spp. against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici [PDF]

, 2016
The Fusarium wilt of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (Sacc.) Snyder and Hansen is recognised as one of the most devastating disease and major yield limiting factor in tomato growing regions worldwide.

Comprehensive and Comparative Transcriptional Profiling of the Cell Wall Stress Response in Bacillus subtilis

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Transcriptional profiling of the primary cell envelope stress response (CESR) of Bacillus subtilis exposed to a range of cell wall‐targeting antimicrobials, combining RNAseq and high‐resolution tiling arrays. We revealed the complexity of the CESR, the contribution of extracytoplasmic function sigma factors (ECFs) and two‐component signal transduction ...

Resistance mechanisms of sugarcane cultivars to spittlebug Mahanarva fimbriolata

Scientia Agricola, 2016
The spittlebug Mahanarva fimbriolata (Stål) (Hemiptera: Cercopidae) is one of the most important pests of sugarcane in Brazil. Measures for population control are currently restricted to the use of chemical insecticides and fungus Metarhizium anisopliae,

The Iturin and Fengycin Families of Lipopeptides Are Key Factors in Antagonism of Bacillus subtilis Toward Podosphaera fusca [PDF]

, 2007
Podosphaera fusca is the main causal agent of cucurbit powdery mildew in Spain. Four Bacillus subtilis strains, UMAF6614, UMAF6619, UMAF6639, and UMAF8561, with proven ability to suppress the disease on melon in detached leaf and seedling assays, were ...
