Mycoparasitism and Biocontrol

1996
Exploitation of mycoparasites as biocontrol agents in agriculture is well-documented. A number of them have shown potential to control Rhizoctonia solani in a diversity of crops or sites, alone or integrated with chemical or mechanical techniques. In respect to the pathogen’s behaviour on the plant surface, the biocontrol effect ranges from niche ...

Commercialization and Implementation of Biocontrol

Annual Review of Phytopathology, 2005
Although the number of biocontrol products is increasing, these products still represent only about 1% of agricultural chemical sales. Yet these are important contributions because biocontrol agents offer disease management alternatives with different mechanisms of action than chemical pesticides.

Uncoupling virulence and biocontrol

Nature Microbiology, 2019
The secondary metabolite cepacin A is the essential compound made by Burkholderia ambifaria needed for biocontrol of plant pathogens. In this organism, genes responsible for virulence and for cepacin A biosynthesis reside on different replicons, allowing for the engineering of avirulent mutants that retain their biocontrol properties.

Biocontrol Agents Against Diseases

2020
Biological control against plant diseases has been extensively studied in recent decades, leading to the identification and development of a significant number of biocontrol agents with various modes of action. Considerable scientific and industrial investments are needed for the development and the commercialization of these protection tools.

Phage for Biocontrol

2016
Bacteriophage (phage) therapy, or the therapeutic use of phage for the treatment of bacterial diseases, is a classical approach that was originally disregarded due to inconsistent results and with the advent of antibiotic drugs. However, with a greater understanding of phage biology and the pressing need for new and innovative antimicrobial strategies ...

Bacteriophage biocontrol

2018
Today, in terms of food safety and biocontrol, sales professionals promote phages as 'natural born killers'. This is mainly because bacteriophages feature unique and efficient mechanisms to specifically target and eliminate bacteria. According to the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses, tailed phages are further separated into three distinct

Mechanisms of Biocontrol

2014
Plant pathogens such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, nematodes, etc., which cause various diseases in crop plants, are controlled by plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR). The mechanisms of biocontrol may be competition or antagonism; however, the most studied phenomenon is the induction of systemic resistance by these rhizobacteria in the host ...
