Journal ArticleDOI
Solubilization of phosphates and micronutrients by the plant-growth-promoting and biocontrol fungus trichoderma harzianum rifai 1295-22
TL;DR: This is the first report of the ability of a Trichoderma strain to solubilize some insoluble or sparingly soluble minerals via three possible mechanisms: acidification of the medium, production of chelating metabolites, and redox activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natural occurrence of beauvericin in preharvest Fusarium subglutinans infected corn ears in Poland
Antonio Logrieco,Antonio Moretti,Alberto Ritieni,J. Chelkowski,Claudio Altomare,Antonio Bottalico,Giacomino Randazzo +6 more
TL;DR: The natural occurrence of BEA in corn is reported here for the first time and proved to be toxic in Artemia salina bioassay.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biological characterization of fusapyrone and deoxyfusapyrone, two bioactive secondary metabolites of Fusarium semitectum.
Claudio Altomare,Giancarlo Perrone,Maria Chiara Zonno,Antonio Evidente,Raffaele Pengue,F. Fanti,Luciano Polonelli +6 more
TL;DR: Two alpha-pyrones originally isolated from rice cultures of Fusarium semitectum appear to be potential candidates for biotechnological applications, as well as good models for studies on mechanism(s) of action and structure-activity relationships.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicity assessment of metabolites of fungal biocontrol agents using two different (Artemia salina and Daphnia magna) invertebrate bioassays.
TL;DR: Two invertebrate models, viz. salina and D. magna, proved to be suitable models for rapid and inexpensive screening of toxicity of BCAs at an early stage of product development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence and toxicity of Fusarium subglutinans from Peruvian maize.
TL;DR: Assays ofFusarium culture extracts usingArtemia salina larvae, showed F. subglutinans as one of the most toxigenic species, and its toxicity was mostly correlated to the capability to produce beauvericin (BEA).
