Survival of a potential bacterial biocontrol agent in the soil and its impact on microbial communities

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6984-6998, July 2026.
In soil microcosms, the candidate Bacillus persisted ≥6 months and caused modest community shifts whose transience and magnitude were soil dependent. Abstract BACKGROUND Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a major crop pathogen commonly managed using fungicides.

Fungal disease management in cotton using plant protection products: An Australian perspective

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6010-6023, July 2026.
Cotton disease management requires evidence‐driven use of plant protection products. Progress hinges on integrating chemistry, diagnostics, stewardship and sustainability to build resilient production systems. Abstract Cotton production faces persistent challenges from pathogens that compromise plant establishment, yield, and fibre quality.

Comparison of Effects of Chitin and Chitosan for Control of Colletotrichum sp. on Cucumbers

, 2017
Experiments were conducted to test the ability of chitin or chitosan to control anthracnose (Colletotrichum sp.) on cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.). Practical grade chitin and unpurified chitin (ground crab shells) were added to compost at concentrations ...

Pathogenic adaptations of Colletotrichum fungi revealed by genome wide gene family evolutionary analyses.

PLoS ONE, 2018
The fungal genus Colletotrichum contains hemibiotrophic phytopathogens being highly variable in host and tissue specificities. We sequenced a C. fructicola genome (1104-7) derived from an isolate of apple in China and compared it with the reference ...

RNA interference in crop protection: opportunities and challenges during the transition to commercialization

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 5971-5986, July 2026.
RNA interference (RNAi) technologies, host‐induced gene silencing (HIGS) and spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS), potentially offer sustainable crop protection. However, efficacy, costs, regulatory clarity, and socio‐environmental impacts require further evaluation for broader use.

CRISPR/Cas‐Mediated Gene Editing in Plant Immunity and Its Potential for the Future Development of Fungal, Oomycete, and Bacterial Pathogen‐Resistant Pulse Crops

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 7, Page 3573-3585, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Pulses provide myriad health benefits and are advantageous in an environmental context as a result of their leguminous nature. However, phytopathogenic fungi, oomycetes and bacteria pose a substantial threat to pulse production, at times leading to crop failure.
