Alcoholic extracts of Russian sage (Salvia yangii) contain bioactive terpenoids with inhibitory activity against grapevine downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola)

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Alcoholic extracts from flowers, leaves, and shoots of Russian sage decreased downy mildew severity on grapevine leaf disks. Fractionation followed by metabolomic analysis revealed putative terpenoids as the main components of the active fractions. Specifically, 7‐methylrosmanol, 12‐O‐methylcarnosic acid, carnosic acid, and carnosol were identified as ...

Trichoderma spp. Genes Involved in the Biocontrol Activity Against Rhizoctonia solani

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Rhizoctonia solani is a pathogen that causes considerable harm to plants worldwide. In the absence of hosts, R. solani survives in the soil by forming sclerotia, and management methods, such as cultivar breeding, crop rotations, and fungicide sprays, are

Disease control in oilseed rape: Current insights and perspectives for next‐generation integrated pest management

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
Winter oilseed rape in Europe suffers frequent pathogen losses. This review outlines key integrated pest management (IPM) strategies, rotation, residue and tillage management, optimized sowing, resistance, and targeted fungicides supported by forecasting.

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals

Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.
In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.

Antifungal Effect of Essential Oils from Some Turkish Herbs against Rhizoctonia solani Kühn

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2006
The antifungal properties of essential oils of Origanum minutiflorum (native to Turkey), O. onites, Thymbra spicata and Satureja cuneifolia were tested against six Rhizoctonia solani isolates obtained from infected seedlings from various forest nurseries

The photoswitchable ABAMIs for the future regulation of GWT1 in a spatiotemporal level

Smart Molecules, EarlyView.
The GWT1‐targeted azobenzene‐aminopyridine derivatives (ABAMIs), sensitive to the light at wavelengths from 365 to 520 nm, are separately developed as photochromic ligands to regulate bioactivity as well as the GWT1 functions. These molecules are smart tools in photopharmacological studies, giving an innovative method for understanding functional GWT1 ...

Antifungal and enzymatic activities of endophytic fungi associated with Tamarix nilotica

Plant Signaling & Behavior
Fungal endophytes were recovered from Tamarix nilotica (Tamaricaceae) roots and stems collected in Taif, Saudi Arabia. A total of 49 different taxa were identified. The overall colonization rate of root and stem segments was 30.6%. A total of 49 isolates

Disabling a conserved module confers broad‐spectrum resistance

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This commentary reviews the discovery by Yuan et al. of a conserved susceptibility module where fungal Gas2 stabilizes host SnRK1β1A to suppress nuclear immunity in rice. It discusses the mechanism for broad‐spectrum resistance via genome editing and considers the essential balance between enhanced defense and associated agronomic trade‐offs.

Observing the invisible: X‐ray CT for plant–microbe interactions

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Utility of X‐ray computed tomography (X‐ray CT) for visualising belowground plant interactions between multiple spatial scales and focal planes. Summary Plant–microbe interactions are inherently spatial, yet the physical structure of the soil and rhizosphere is rarely treated as a mechanistic variable in experimental design.

Negative Regulators of Rice Agronomic Traits: Functional Insights and Applications in Genome Editing‐Based Breeding

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among current precision breeding strategies, genome editing has created new opportunities for crop improvement, but its success depends heavily on the selection of ...
