Mining Microbial Niches: Sources of Bacteria for Enhancing Plant Growth and Resilience to pH, Salinity, Drought and Phytophthora infestans

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2025.
In this study, 21 bacterial strains were isolated from diverse ecological niches, including straw digestate, mycorrhizal roots and a stone fountain. These strains, spanning eight genera, were evaluated for plant growth promotion, biocontrol against Phytophthora infestans, and tolerance to abiotic stresses such as salinity, pH and drought.

Antifungal and plant-growth promoting potency of Streptomyces rochei against biotic stress caused by Race 4 Fusarium wilt on banana

Plant Stress
Banana is a staple food for millions of individuals, especially in regions with tropical and subtropical climates. Nevertheless, the cultivation of banana is under significant threat from Fusarium wilt, a harmful biotic stress transmitted through the ...

IbPIF1 confers stem nematode resistance by regulating secondary metabolites in sweet potato

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, Page 4650-4664, October 2025.
Summary The stem nematode (Ditylenchus destructor Thorne) is a pervasive and destructive plant‐parasitic nematode worldwide, inflicting severe agricultural and economic losses in a wide range of crops. Despite its global impact, the molecular mechanisms underlying plant resistance to this pathogen remain poorly understood. Our previous studies in sweet

Isolation and identification of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense in Fujian Province, China

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2019
Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxyporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), is the most serious disease affecting banana production. To clarify the distribution of the Foc races in Fujian Province of China, 79 soil samples were collected from four regions of ...

Specific PCR primer designed from genome data for rapid detection of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense tropical race 4 in the Cavendish banana.

PLoS ONE
Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) tropical race 4 (TR4) severely affects banana production worldwide. Thus, specific PCR primers have been developed to rapidly diagnose and monitor Foc TR4-related fusarium wilt outbreaks in ...

RESISTANCE OF LOCAL BANANA VARIETIES TO FUSARIUM WILT DISEASE

TROPICAL WETLAND JOURNAL, 2017
Fusarium wilt is one of the important banana diseases that lead to low quality and quantity of banana production. The objective of this study was to examine and study the resistance of some local banana varieties to fusarium wilt. Pathogens were isolated from the weevil of kepok banana (saba banana) that showed severe symptoms of Fusarium wilt.

A novel key virulence factor, FoSSP71, inhibits plant immunity and promotes pathogenesis in Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense

Microbiology Spectrum
Fusarium wilt of banana (Musa spp.), caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc), poses a significant threat to the global banana industry. Particularly, tropical race 4 of Foc exhibits high pathogenicity toward the major commercial banana cultivar
