The plant microbiome: From ecological foundations to precision microbial engineering for sustainable agriculture

iMeta, EarlyView.
From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial

Preparation and characterization of antifungal colloidal copper nanoparticles and their antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum and Phytophthora capsici

Comptes rendus. Chimie, 2019
Copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) possess a promising antibacterial and antifungal activity with low-cost reagent and fabrication. In this study, we report the antifungal activity of pure CuNPs against Fusarium oxysporum (F.

Looking at Soil as It Is: Evolution of Microscopic Soil Characterization From Kubiëna to Artificial Intelligence

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
We provide a historic overview of microscopic soil structure characterization from its founding father, Walter Kubiëna, to several technical revolutions like automation, digitalization, and artificial intelligence. In addition to technical advancements, we explore how concepts and research questions have evolved in time.

Deciphering Underlying Drivers of Disease Suppressiveness Against Pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Soil-borne diseases, especially those caused by fungal pathogens, lead to profound annual yield losses. One key example for such a disease is Fusarium wilt disease in banana. In some soils, plants do not show disease symptoms, even if the disease-causing

Gymnema sylvestre: Bioactive constituents, health benefits, and emerging applications in nutraceuticals and functional foods

JSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Gymnema sylvestre (Retz.) R.Br. ex‐Schult., commonly known as “gurmar” or “sugar destroyer,” belongs to the Apocynaceae family and is traditionally used in Ayurveda for diabetes management. This review synthesizes ethnomedicinal evidence with contemporary pharmacological studies, to evaluate the therapeutic properties and mechanistic actions ...

Epitypification of Fusarium oxysporum – clearing the taxonomic chaos

Persoonia, 2018
Fusarium oxysporum is the most economically important and commonly encountered species of Fusarium. This soil-borne fungus is known to harbour both pathogenic (plant, animal and human) and non-pathogenic strains.

Enhancing cowpea wilt resistance: insights from gene coexpression network analysis with exogenous melatonin treatment

BMC Plant Biology
Background Cowpea wilt is a harmful disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum, leading to substantial losses in cowpea production. Melatonin reportedly regulates plant immunity to pathogens; however the specific regulatory mechanism underlying the protective ...

Disclosing the production of fungal chitinases and proteases using insect by‐products as substrates in solid‐state fermentation

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The world population is projected to reach nearly 9.7 billion by 2050, significantly increasing the demand for novel and sustainable protein sources. Edible insects, such as Tenebrio molitor, emerge as promising alternatives due to their high nutritional value, but adult insects and frass are direct and abundant by‐products of this ...

Hyphal growth of phagocytosed Fusarium oxysporum causes cell lysis and death of murine macrophages.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Fusarium oxysporum is an important plant pathogen and an opportunistic pathogen of humans. Here we investigated phagocytosis of F. oxysporum by J774.1 murine cell line macrophages using live cell video microscopy.
