Effects of Meloidogyne incognita on agronomic parameters and structural changes in eggplant (Solanum gilo Raddi) roots treated with Purpureocillium lilacinum

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Meloidogyne incognita impairs eggplant growth through gall formation with changes in root cell wall components and vascular tissue disruption, while the biocontrol agent Purpureocillium lilacinum mitigates these effects by reducing nematode infection. Abstract Meloidogyne spp. induce structural changes during the development of root‐knot galls, leading

Nematode-Responsive Activity of the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus 35S Promoter and Its Subdomains

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1999
Root-knot and cyst nematodes are obligate plant parasites that induce complex biotrophic feeding structures in host roots. The mechanisms by which nematodes regulate host gene expression to produce feeding sites are unknown. The cauliflower mosaic virus (

A synergistic alliance between nematophagous fungi and organic matter against plant‐parasitic nematodes: a systematic review

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 9, Page 8104-8119, September 2026.
Certain beneficial fungi are widely used to control harmful nematodes in crops, especially when combined with organic matter. Together, they improve soil health, support plant growth, and enhance nutrient cycling. This natural partnership offers a promising, environmentally friendly approach to strengthening sustainable agriculture and reducing ...

Characterizing How Community‐Level Plant Functional Traits Impact Soil Microbial Diversity

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Functional trait‐based approaches have been suggested for designing functionally diverse plant communities to influence soil microbial community structure and diversity. However, it remains unclear how species‐level plant functional traits (PFTs) and microbial associations translate to community‐level functional trait and soil ...

Impact of Soilless Growing Media on Growth, Yield, Fruit Quality, and Root‐Knot Nematode Incidence of Cucumber Under Protected Cultivation

Plant-Environment Interactions, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Soilless cultivation has emerged as an effective approach for improving cucumber productivity under protected cultivation by enhancing root‐zone conditions and minimizing soil‐borne constraints. However, the performance of different growing media combinations remains insufficiently understood.

Strigolactone‐mediated architecture regulation and stress resilience: Insights and innovations for crop breeding

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 2548-2576, August 2026.
This review summarizes the discovery, biosynthesis, and transport of strigolactone, and the D14‐D3/MAX2‐D53/SMXLs signaling module. It highlights diverse roles of strigolactone in plant architecture, stress responses, and crop breeding, including species‐specific functions, hormonal crosstalk, and agricultural applications.
