Fungi and bacteria were isolated from surface disinfected leaf tissues of several citrus rootstocks. The principal bacterial species Alcaligenes sp., Bacillus spp. (including B. cereus, lentus, megaterium, pumilus, subtilis), Burkholderia cepacia, Curtobacterium flaccumfaciens, Enterobacter cloacae, Methylobacterium extorquens, Pantoea agglomerans, with P. agglomerans pumilus being the most frequently species. abundant fungal Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Guignardia citricarpa,...

Fusarium proliferatum is an important pathogen that associated with plant diseases and primarily affects aerial parts by producing different mycotoxins, which are toxic to humans animals. Within the last decade, this fungus has also been described as one of causes red root rot or sudden death syndrome in soybean, extensive damage crop. This study describes Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation F. a tool for disruption pathogenicity genes. The genetic was performed using two...

The mangrove ecosystem is a coastal tropical biome located in the transition zone between land and sea that characterized by periodic flooding, which confers unique specific environmental conditions on this biome. In these ecosystems, vegetation dominated particular group of plant species provide environment harboring diverse groups microorganisms, including endophytic microorganisms are focus study. Because their intimate association with plants, could be explored for biotechnologically...

Endophytes are being considered for use in biological control, and the enzymes they secrete might facilitate their initial colonization of internal plant tissues direct interactions with microbial pathogens. Microbial proteases also biotechnologically important products employed bioremediation processes, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, photographic food industries. In present study, we evaluated antagonism competitive between 98 fungal endophytes Alternaria alternata, Colletotrichum sp.,...

Guarana (Paullinia cupana var. sorbilis) is a plant from the Amazonas region with socio-economic importance. However, guarana production has been increasingly affected by unfavorable conditions resulting anthracnose, caused Colletotrichum fungal genus, which primarily affects mainly region. The aim of present study was to isolate bacterial endophytes seeds plants obtained and Northeast state Bahia, where this disease not problem for plantations. number Colony Forming Units (CFU/g seeds) 2.4...

The protective and growth-promoting activities of Colletrotrichum Diaporthe endophytes on tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) are underexplored. We screened 40 endophytic fungi associated with Mexican shrimp plant (Justicia brandegeana) using an in vitro dual culture assay for Fusarium oxysporum, one the most important phytopathogens plants. three best antagonists, Colletotrichum siamense (JB224.g1), C. (JB252.g1), masirevicii (JB270), were identified based multilocus sequence...

Because of human population growth, increased food production and alternatives to conventional methods biocontrol development plants such as the use endophytic bacteria fungi are required. One used study microorganism diversity is sequencing 16S rRNA gene, which has several advantages, including universality, size, availability databases for comparison. The objective this was analyze bacterial in agricultural crops using published papers, sequence databases, phylogenetic analysis. Fourteen...

Various organisms such as fungi and bacteria can live inside plants, inhabiting the aerial parts (primarily leaves) without causing damage. These microorganisms, called endophytes, produce an extensive variety of compounds that be useful for medical agronomic purposes. Trichilia elegans A. Juss., belonging to Meliaceae family, shows wide dispersion in South America, phytochemical analyses from these plants endophyte isolates have shown biological activity. Accordingly, aim this study was...
