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 ...

Microbial Community Shifts and Plant Performance Improvements Driven by Bacillus firmus in Pampa Agroecosystems

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
The study shows that Bacillus firmus‐based bionematicides modulate soil microbiota and enhance soybean growth in the Pampa biome. Effects vary by location and time, with increased beneficial bacteria, reduced fungi, and decreased root nematode infestation. Overall, B.

Soybean Crop Response Treated With Different Multifunctional Inoculants Under Field Conditions

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
Consortia of plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) enhance soybean phosphorus use efficiency and grain yield under contrasting field conditions. These bioinputs reduce dependence on mineral fertilizers and support eco‐efficient agriculture, offering a sustainable alternative in diverse soil and climate conditions.

Movement and Survival of Spodoptera litura (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Neonate Larvae on Cotton Expressing Bacillus thuringiensis Proteins

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 6, Page 549-558, June 2026.
Spodoptera litura neonates showed increased movement on Bt‐expressing Bollgard 3 (BG) cotton leaf discs but did not initially avoid it. Survival was higher when larvae could move from BG3 to non‐Bt leaf discs. On whole plants, more larvae dispersed from hatching on BG3 cotton compared to non‐Bt cotton. These findings suggest the larval movement differs

Three Decades of China's Bt Cotton: Achievements and Insights

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4393-4414, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cotton is a vital natural fibre crop with significant economic value worldwide. In response to the threat of cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera), the China government initiated a research project in 1992 to develop transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton.

Fatores de virulência de Bacillus thuringiensis: o que existe além das proteínas Cry

EntomoBrasilis, 2012
As proteínas Cry produzidas pela bactéria entomopatogênica Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner são bem conhecidas devido a alta citotoxicidade que exibem a uma variedade de insetos-alvo. O modo de ação destas proteínas é específico e torna os produtos à base
