Addition of Earthworms to Continuous Cropping Soil Inhibits the Fusarium Wilt in Watermelon: Evidence Under Both Field and Pot Conditions

Horticulturae
Fusarium wilt is a devastating soilborne disease that significantly reduces watermelon production worldwide. This disease is caused by Fusarium oxysporum subsp. niveum (E.F.Sm.) W.C. Snyder & H.N.Hansen. Earthworms can influence fungal populations either

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. echeveriae, a novel forma specialis causing crown and stem rot of Echeveria agavoides

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2015
analysis based on the ITS region confirmed the pathogen as Fusarium oxysporum. In order to identify the forma specialis, thirteen isolates obtained from infected tissues were used for phylogenetic analysis based on four polygalacturonase genes (Pg1, Pg5,

Differential Varietal Responses in Faba Bean Concerning Pea Aphid and Pea Necrotic Yellow Dwarf Virus (PNYDV) When Intercropped With Oat

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pest status of pea aphid (Acyrthosiphum pisum H.) in faba bean (Vicia faba L.) cultivation has gained importance because it transmits Pea necrotic yellow dwarf virus (PNYDV), a novel nanovirus in Europe. This study evaluated two faba bean varieties, ‘Fuego’ and ‘GL Sunrise’, grown under sole crop (SC) and intercrop (IC) conditions with oat

Identification and pathogenicity of Fusarium species associated with wilting and crown rot in almond (Prunus dulcis)

Scientific Reports
Severe Fusarium wilt and crown root symptoms were observed in almond orchards in Portugal. The present study elucidates the etiology of the disease through molecular, phenotypic, and pathogenic characterization. Three Fusarium isolates from Portugal were

Engineered Yarrowia lipolytica inducing gene silencing confers control ability against gray mold in plants

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Engineered the plant‐colonizing yeast Yarrowia lipolytica to produce and deliver double‐stranded RNAs targeting key genes of the gray mold fungus Botrytis cinerea produced a ‘living factory’ that continuously synthesizes and releases gene‐silencing molecules on plant surfaces, effectively suppressing the pathogen.

Embedded Pesticide Use: Exploring the Pesticide‐Land Nexus

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Since the turn of the century, global land grabs, farmland financialization and land‐based food sovereignty movements have returned the land question to the heart of agrarian studies. Meanwhile, abiding interest in pesticides has been reanimated in the face of changes in production, regulation and knowledge of toxicity.

Efficiency of RNAi‐based gene silencing in fungi: a meta‐analysis

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Mechanistic interpretation of RNAi efficiency across fungal lifestyles and delivery strategies based on the present meta‐analysis. Summary RNA interference (RNAi) shows great potential to protect crops against fungal diseases, yet reported protection efficiencies vary greatly, and our understanding of the factors responsible for this variance remains ...

Combinatorial efficacy of Trichoderma spp. and Pseudomonas fluorescens to enhance suppression of cell wall degrading enzymes produced by Fusarium wilt of Arachis hypogaea.L

International Journal of Agricultural Research, Innovation and Technology, 2017
Fusarium oxysporum, the soil borne pathogen causes vascular wilt, on majority of crop plants. It has been demonstrated that two different species of Trichoderma and Pseudomonas fluorescens suppress disease by different mechanisms.

Molecular identification of Fusarium spp. from wilt-infected tomato and brinjal plants in selected regions of Sri Lanka and endophytic bacteria as a potential option for disease management

Tropical Agricultural Research, 2018
Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium spp. is an economically important fungal disease of tomato and brinjal production areas in Sri Lanka. The study was carried out to identify Fusarium isolates infecting tomato and brinjal, and endophytic antagonists ...
