Using plant extracts as eco-friendly reducing and stabilizing agents for the synthesis of nanoparticles has gained significant attention in recent years. The current study explores green silver (AgNPs) using Avena fatua extract evaluates their antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici (Fol), a fungal pathogen. A sustainable approach was adopted to synthesize before these were employed anti-fungal activity. primary indication that AgNPs had formed performed UV-vis...
The bacterium, Streptomyces yanglinensis 3-10, shows promise in the control of many phytopathogenic fungi. In this study, S. and its antifungal substances, culture filtrate (CF3-10) crude extracts (CE3-10), were evaluated for their activity reducing growth aflatoxin AFB1 production by Aspergillus flavus, both vitro vivo on peanut kernels. results showed that dual conditions, reduced mycelial A. flavus about 41% as compared to control. was completely inhibited potato dextrose agar amended...
Banana is a staple food of millions people in almost all the tropical and subtropical regions world. The most critical factors affecting banana production are post-harvest diseases, which generally originate from flowering to fruit maturity or at time harvesting subsequent storage fruits. primary sources such infection include superficial wounds during handling, leading enormous economic losses. One major pathogen Colletotrichum musae, causing anthracnose, pretty significant disease on...
IntroductionG ilgit-Baltistan (GB), with a total area of 72,971 km² (28,174 sq.mi), is the northernmost territory administered by Pakistan (Hussain et al., 2021).GB one world's most beautiful areas, fifty highest mountains and three longest glaciers.It linked to Xinjiang region China east northeast, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK) west, Azad Kashmir south, Afghanistan's Wakhan Corridor north via Karakorum Highway (KKH) (Butz Abstract | The Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) was free from plant diseases...
The cultivation system requires that the approach providing biomass for all types of metabolic analysis is excellent quality and reliability. This study was conducted to enhance efficiency yield antifungal substance (AFS) production in Streptomyces yanglinensis 3–10 by optimizing operation conditions aeration, agitation, carbon source, incubation time a fermenter. Dissolved oxygen (DO) pH were found play significant roles AFS production. optimum S. be 6.5. As synthesis generally thought an...
Excessive release of heavy metals in ecosystem poses a serious threat to human beings and food security. Remediation from contaminated soils is considered complicated task for environmental safety. Among different techniques, immobilization using soil amendments has attained greater attention as promising solution metal remediation. A column leaching experiment was planned estimate the influence biochar (BC), slag (SL), ferrous manganese ore (FMO) at 3% 6% application rate on lead (Pb)...
Background and aimCitrus bent leaf viroid (CBLVd) is one of the emerging widely distributed viroids in citrus-growing areas world, including Pakistan. Previously, CBLVd has been reported Pakistan for first time 2009. Therefore, characterization required to monitor status citrus orchards concerning decline.MethodsBiological molecular was studied through biological indexing confirmation RT-PCR, followed by phylogenetic analysis selected isolates. Among four cultivars viz., Kinnow (Citrus...
Chemical pesticides used in crops have become a major concern due to their harmful effects on the environment and human health. This study aims identify characterize insecticidal proteins local plants determine efficacy against common crop pests. By analyzing mode of action toxicity these proteins, this research could provide sustainable eco-friendly approach pest management. The goal was evaluate various plant total soluble pests e.g. whitefly mustard aphid. Two types protein extracts were...
The oriental fruit fly, Bactrocera dorsalis (Hendel) (Diptera: Tephritidae) is one of the major insect pests which renders to become unfit for human consumption. In severe cases, losses may reach up 100% in some crops. present study aimed investigate pathogenicity entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs), Heterorhabditis bacteriophora, H. indica, Steinernema carpocapsae, and S. asiaticum against B. maggots pupae under laboratory conditions. One milliliter EPNs, having 50, 75, 100 infective...
Root-knot nematodes Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid and White) Chitwood Rhizoctonia bataticola (Taub.) Butler, fungus, are very dangerous root damaging pathogens. Present study was planned to establish a chemical control of these deteriorating pathogens under lab conditions as well in field. Maximum death rate nematode juveniles minimum numbers eggs hatched were recorded plates treated with Cadusafos (Rugby® 100G) @12 g/100 ml Cartap® (4% G) @9g/100 ml. Chemical treatment Trifloxystrobin +...
Root knot nematodes are commercially important plant parasites of many vegetable crops in Pakistan. This study investigate antagonistic effect Pseudomonas spp. against M. incognita on tomato crop. Ten cultivars were screened RKN infection. Roma was found the most resistant infection while money maker susceptible. Gall or egg mass number/indices more to RKN. strains inoculated infected plants reduced galling index and also improved growth plant. So, it obvious that bio-control agents act as...
The research was focused on the ability of wheat aphids Sitobion avenae, harboring bacterial secondary symbionts (BSS) Hamiltonella defensa or Regiella insecticola, to withstand exposure fungal isolates Beauveria bassiana and Metarhizium brunneum. In comparison lacking symbionts, BSS considerably increased lifespan exposed B. strains (Bb1022, EABb04/01-Tip) M. brunneum (ART 2825 BIPESCO 5) also reduced aphids’ mortality. aphid clones were shown be particularly vulnerable strain 5. As opposed...
