Mechanisms underlying the protective effects of beneficial fungi against plant diseases
TL;DR: The biocontrol mechanisms in beneficial fungi are explored and the potential practical implications are highlighted by highlighting the possible practical implications.

Fengycin produced by Bacillus subtilis 9407 plays a major role in the biocontrol of apple ring rot disease
TL;DR: This is the first report on the use of a B. subtilis strain as a potential biological control agent to control apple ring rot disease by the production of fengycin, and results suggest that ppsB is responsible for synthesizing fenGycin and that fenGYcin is the major antifungal compound produced by B. dothidea.
Journal ArticleDOI
Insights to plant-microbe interactions provide opportunities to improve resistance breeding against root diseases in grain legumes.
TL;DR: This review summarizes the current knowledge of resistance against soil-borne pathogens in grain legumes, evidence for genetic variation for rhizosphere-related traits, the role of root exudation in microbe-mediated disease resistance and how these traits can be incorporated in resistance breeding programmes.

Inhibition of plant pathogenic fungi by endophytic Trichoderma spp. through mycoparasitism and volatile organic compounds.
P. Rajani,C. Rajasekaran,M. M. Vasanthakumari,Shannon B. Olsson,Gudasalamani Ravikanth,R. Uma Shaanker +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that besides mycoparasitism, VOCs play a major role in antagonism of pathogenic fungi by four endophytic fungi belonging to the genus Trichoderma.

Endophytic bacteria of desert cactus (Euphorbia trigonas Mill) confer drought tolerance and induce growth promotion in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.).
Pierre Eke,Aundy Kumar,Kuleshwar Prasad Sahu,Louise Nana Wakam,Neelam Sheoran,Mushineni Ashajyothi,A. K. Patel,Fabrice Boyom Fekam +7 more
TL;DR: The cactus endophytic bacterial strain B. amyloliquefaciens CBa_RA37 showed promise for low-cost, efficient and environmentally friendly bio-inoculant technology to mitigate drought in arid zones of Asian and African continents.

Crop losses to pests
TL;DR: Despite a clear increase in pesticide use, crop losses have not significantly decreased during the last 40 years, however, pesticide use has enabled farmers to modify production systems and to increase crop productivity without sustaining the higher losses likely to occur from an increased susceptibility to the damaging effect of pests.
Book
The Fusarium Laboratory Manual
TL;DR: This chapter discusses techniques for Growing and Identifying Fusarium, and concludes with a discussion of the importance of knowing the carrier and removal status of canine coronavirus in the context of fusarium establishment.

Vigor Determination in Soybean Seed by Multiple Criteria1
TL;DR: In this article, a multiple criteria approach is presented by which vigor was evaluated in 16 lots of soybean (Glycine max L., cv. ‘Lee-68’) seed by determining O∂ uptake, CO₂ production, uptake of labeled glucose or leucine, conversion of isotopes into ¹ ₂ and polysaccharides or proteins, and leaching of metabolites through membranes of excised embryonic axes after 5 hours of imbibition.

TL;DR: Conventional plant breeding for resistance has an important role to play that can now be facilitated by marker-assisted selection, and there is also a role for transgenic modification with genes that confer resistance.

Antagonistic properties of species-groups of Trichoderma: II. Production of volatile antibiotics
C. Dennis,J. Webster +1 more
TL;DR: Isolates from different species-groups of Trichoderma were tested for production of non-volatile antibiotics, by an agar layer technique; the susceptibility of fungi to these antibiotics varied widely; Fomes annosus (Fr.) Cooke was the most susceptible and Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht, ex Fr.
