Long-term no-till: A major driver of fungal communities in dryland wheat cropping systems.
PLoS ONE, 2017 In the dryland Pacific Northwest wheat cropping systems, no-till is becoming more prevalent as a way to reduce soil erosion and fuel inputs. Tillage can have a profound effect on microbial communities and soilborne fungal pathogens, such as Rhizoctonia ...

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2012 Twenty-one isolates of Rhizoctonia solani were categorized into three anastomosis groups consisting of AG-4-HG-I (eight isolates), AG-2-2 (nine isolates) and AG-5 (four isolates). Their pathogenic capacities were tested on cotton cultivar Giza 86. Pre-emergence damping-off varied in response to the different isolates; however, the differences were ...

Journal of Nutrition & Food Sciences, 2016 Two galactose specific lectins, RSAI and RSAII, were purified from sclerotia of Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn and their inhibitory effects were assessed on digestive α-amylase of Pieris brassicae Linnaeus. Results revealed molecular weight of 16 and 15.7 kDa and IC50 inhibitory concentration of 0.87 and 1.68 mg/ml for RSAI and RSAII, respectively.

Various Fungi Colonising Fresh Litter During Winter Inhibit Seed Germination of Picea jezoensis
Plant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 1, January/February 2026.The community of soil‐borne fungal pathogens infecting Picea jezoensis seeds differs among the sites with different altitudes. ABSTRACT Natural regeneration of Picea jezoensis, one of the dominant conifer species in northern Japan, is severely inhibited by soil‐borne pathogens.

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 12, Page 3659-3671, December 2025.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract A key feature of Orchidaceae is the production of dust‐like seeds that depend on fungal carbon during early development. Although protocorms and mature green orchids typically associate with rhizoctonia fungi, many non‐photosynthetic orchids and some photosynthetic ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.The tunneling dung beetle, Onthophagus taurus (Schreber 1759) buries dung in the soil, affecting soil physical properties, the soil microbial community, as well as nutrient cycling. However, few studies have examined links between dung‐beetle mediated changes in soil microbes and soil organic carbon. We used a 60‐day enclosure experiment to examine how

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 11, Page 5252-5278, November 2025.ABSTRACT Polyploidisation is a natural evolutionary mechanism that enhances plant stress tolerance and environmental adaptability; however, its impact on microbiome homeostasis remains poorly understood. In this study, we selected a nascent euploid synthetic hexaploid wheat line (HG116; 2n = 6x = 42, BBAADD) by selfing a triploid F1 hybrid of Triticum ...

Global Change Biology, Volume 31, Issue 9, September 2025.Drought can have lasting effects on grasslands above‐ and belowground. We found that drought left soil legacies that persisted into the following year, affecting plant community response to a subsequent drought. These effects depended on the intensity of the initial drought and the plant community resource acquisition strategy. Our findings demonstrate

South African Journal of Botany, 2018 Abstract The presence of appropriate fungal mycobiont for seedling recruitment and plant nutritional support is essential for the long-term survival of orchids in managed or restored habitats. Vanda thwaitesii Hook. f., an epiphytic orchid endemic to the Western Ghats in India and Sri Lanka, endangered due to habitat destruction, necessitates a ...

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract Under global change, the transformation of landscapes and anthropogenic movement of organisms lead to novel biotic interactions that affect ecosystem health. A prior field‐based metabarcoding survey revealed that Juglans nigra harbors a novel, low‐diversity mycobiome outside of its native range that may contribute to the severity of thousand ...
