Advances in the detection technology of vegetable soil borne fungi and bacteria [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologySoil borne diseases are one of the most serious diseases which often results the decline of vegetables quality and loss of production. Moreover, it is difficult for plants to exhibit disease symptoms in the early stages attributing to strong concealment ...

Soil-borne fungi influence seed germination and mortality, with implications for coexistence of desert winter annual plants. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 Soil-borne fungi influence coexistence of plant species in mesic environments, but much less is known about their effects on demographic processes relevant to coexistence in arid and semi-arid systems.

Lost in diversity: the interactions between soil‐borne fungi, biodiversity and plant productivity [PDF]
New Phytologist, 2018 Summary There is consensus that plant species richness enhances plant productivity within natural grasslands, but the underlying drivers remain debated. Recently, differential accumulation of soil‐borne fungal pathogens across the plant diversity gradient has been ...

Volatiles from soil-borne fungi affect directional growth of roots. [PDF]
Plant Cell Environ, 2021 AbstractVolatiles play major roles in mediating ecological interactions between soil (micro)organisms and plants. It is well‐established that microbial volatiles can increase root biomass and lateral root formation. To date, however, it is unknown whether microbial volatiles can affect directional root growth.

A Rapid Genomic DNA Extraction Method for Direct Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction-Based On-Site Detection of Soil-Borne Fungal Disease [PDF]
The Plant Pathology JournalSoil-borne phytopathogenic fungi cause root rot, wilt, and damping-off in crops, leading to major yield losses worldwide. Because symptoms appear only after underground infection progresses, early detection is crucial.

Soil-borne fungi challenge the concept of long-term biochemical recalcitrance of pyrochar. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2018 AbstractPyrogenic organic matter (PyOM) is assumed to be biochemically recalcitrant, but recent studies indicated a quick decrease of PyOM in post-fire soils. Regardless erosion and abiotic degradation, microbial decomposition has been the explanation for this response, but no direct proof has been provided up to now. In the present study, we were able

Towards sustainable biocontrol: inhibition of soil borne fungi by microalgae from harsh environments [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyUsing microorganisms as biocontrol agents against soilborne plant pathogens is a promising alternative to chemical pesticides. However, only some biocontrol agents have proven effective under field conditions.

Metagenomic analysis suggests that tomato root-knot nematode infestation disrupts rhizosphere microbial networks, consistent with reduced disease suppression [PDF]
Frontiers in MicrobiologyIntroductionThe rhizosphere microbiome serves as a critical line of defense for plant health and soil-borne disease suppression. However, the underlying mechanisms by which root-knot nematodes (RKN), a devastating soil-borne pathogen, undermine putative ...
