Integrating Synthetic Community With Chemical Fungicide Improves the Control of Rhizoctonia Bare Patch Disease in Wheat

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The soil borne pathogen Rhizoctonia solani AG8 causes Rhizoctonia bare patch disease, a major constraint on global wheat production, particularly in no‐ or minimal ‐till systems. Current control strategies such as crop rotation, chemical fungicides, and tillage provide only partial protection, while fungicides can accelerate resistance ...
