Large- and small-scale population structure of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola, a bacterial pathogen of rice

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola is a pathogen of rice responsible for bacterial leaf streak, a disease that can cause up to 32% yield loss. While it was first reported a century ago in Asia, its first report in Africa was in the 1980s.

A Meta‐Analysis Reveals That the Protective Role of Silicon in Grasses Against Fungal Pathogens Depends on Infection Mechanism

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogen infection drives plant community structure and constrains global agricultural productivity. Silicon (Si) improves resistance to abiotic and herbivory stress, particularly in grasses, but relatively little attention has addressed Si‐mediated resistance to pathogens, nor has it tested how this varies according to the type of plant and ...

Disarming the Pathogen's Metabolic Weapon: A Novel Route to Durable Disease Resistance

Modern Agriculture, Volume 4, Issue 1, June 2026.
Two routes to sugar acquisition in pathogenic bacteria and corresponding ‘pathogen‐starvation’ strategies. TAL effectors activate plant SWEET transporters to promote sucrose efflux into the apoplast, which can be blocked by editing SWEET promoter effector‐binding elements to prevent TAL binding. The T3E AvrBs2 converts host UDP‐galactose into xanthosan,

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 ...

Bacillus velezensis Enhances the Resistance of Wheat Against Cd Stress via Reprogramming Metabolite Production

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cadmium (Cd) pollution poses a serious threat to crop yields and plant health. As a bacterium that promotes plant growth, Bacillus velezensis has been proven to promote plant growth under non‐biological coercive conditions. However, the molecular mechanism of B. velezensis‐mediated Cd toxicity alleviation of wheat is still not well understood.
