Endophytic fungi associated with Monarda citriodora, an aromatic and medicinal plant and their biocontrol potential

Pharmaceutical Biology, 2017
Context: The Food and Agriculture Organization has estimated that every year considerable losses of the food crops occur due to plant diseases. Although fungicides are extensively used for management of plant diseases, they are expensive and hazardous to

Metabolic Reprogramming of a Phenolic Acid by a Plant P450 Monooxygenase Reverses Bacterial Immunosuppression

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 7, Page 4672-4688, July 2026.
Ralstonia solanacearum suppresses P450 activity to block VA‐to‐VanA conversion, leading to VA accumulation and compromised immunity. ABSTRACT Soil acidification often exacerbates plant diseases caused by soil‐borne pathogens like Ralstonia solanacearum, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. This study unveils a sophisticated metabolic

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.

Lysogenic Conversion of the Phytopathogen Ralstonia solanacearum by the P2virus ϕRSY1 [PDF]

, 2017
A P2-like phage ϕRSY1 infecting the phytopathogen Ralstonia solanacearum was isolated and characterized. The 40-kb genome of ϕRSY1 showed high sequence similarity to the Ralstonia phage ϕRSA1 and the GMI1000 prophage ϕRSX.

Toward a better understanding of the ecological roles of extracellular vesicles from plant-associated bacteria

Applied and Environmental Microbiology
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) from phytobacteria are emerging key ecological actors of plant–bacteria interactions. They can promote colonization of the host by delivering virulence factors and cell wall-degrading enzymes.

Draft genome sequence data of Fusarium verticillioides strain REC01, a phytopathogen isolated from a Peruvian maize [PDF]

Fusarium verticillioides represents a major phytopathogenic threat to maize crops worldwide. In this study, we present genomic sequence data of a phytopathogen isolated from a maize stem that shows obvious signs of vascular rot.

Environmental Bacteriophages of the Emerging Enterobacterial Phytopathogen, Dickeya solani, Show Genomic Conservation and Capacity for Horizontal Gene Transfer between Their Bacterial Hosts

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Dickeya solani is an economically important phytopathogen widespread in mainland Europe that can reduce potato crop yields by 25%. There are no effective environmentally-acceptable chemical systems available for diseases caused by Dickeya. Bacteriophages
