Biocontrol for Shrimp Disease: Comprehensive Review and a Bacterial Disease Biocontrol Practice

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biocontrol is a key strategy for disease control, as it is environmentally friendly and widely applicable. This review elaborates on biocontrol in aquaculture, particularly in shrimp culture. Biocontrol in shrimp culture mainly relies on four strategies: (i) direct kill pathogen by Bdellovibrio or bacteriophages; (ii) suppression of intestinal

Acetylation Activity and Specificity of Peptidoglycan Deacetylase BsPdaC Acting in Reverse on Chitooligosaccharides

ChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 10, 27 May 2026.
Bacillus subtilis PdaC is the first peptidoglycan deacetylase able to act in reverse, acetylating a glucosamine oligomer (chitopentaose) with a pattern of acetylation mirroring the natural deacetylation reaction with unique final regioselectivity, acetylating all but the reducing end of D5.

Development of a high-efficiency gene knockout system for Pochonia chlamydosporia

Microbiological Research, 2015
The nematophagous fungus Pochonia chlamydosporia, which belongs to the family Clavicipitaceae (Ascomycota: Pezizomycotina: Sordariomycetes: Hypocreales), is a promising biological control agent for root-knot and cyst nematodes. Its biocontrol effect has been confirmed by pot and field trials.

Volatile Organic Compounds From Nematophagous Fungi With Nematicidal Activity Against the Root‐Lesion Nematode Pratylenchus brachyurus

Journal of Phytopathology, Volume 174, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Pratylenchus spp. are highly polyphagous migratory endoparasites and rank among the most important plant‐parasitic nematodes in agriculture. Their management relies primarily on integrated practices, including the use of chemical nematicides, biological control agents, and cultural strategies.

Use of Pochonia chlamydosporia to control Meloidogyne javanica in cucumber

Biological Control, 2014
Abstract This study was done to evaluate the effect of the bionematicide Pc-10, based on Pochonia chlamydosporia var. chlamydosporia, on the control of Meloidogyne javanica. The fungus was applied by two methods: (1) drenching the substrate of seedlings with an aqueous suspension of Pc-10 (0, 4.5, 9.0, 13.5 and 18.0 g/L), or (2) incorporating Pc-10 ...

Evaluation of nematophagous fungal mycelial growth and interactions with bovine gastrointestinal parasitic nematodes

German Journal of Veterinary Research, 2022
Previous research has shown an increased action on helminth biological control by fungal combinations. This study characterized the temperature and pH conditions necessary for better mycelial growth of Monacrosporium sinense (SF53) and Pochonia ...

Population dynamics of stubby root nematodes (Trichodorus and Paratrichodorus spp.) associated with ‘Docking disorder’ of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.), in field rotations with cover crops in East England

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 187, Issue 2, Page 177-191, September 2025.
This study evaluated the population dynamics of stubby root nematodes (SRN) in field rotations with cover crops and the subsequent effect of this rotation on sugar beet quality and quantity attributes. It was clear that the SRN densities under field conditions are influenced by multiple factors, such as the type of cover crops grown, soil disturbance ...
