P. aeruginosa strain FG106 was isolated from the rhizosphere of tomato plants and identified through morphological analysis, 16S rRNA gene sequencing, whole-genome sequencing. In vitro in vivo experiments demonstrated that this could control several pathogens on tomato, potato, taro, strawberry. Volatile non-volatile metabolites produced by are known to adversely affect tested pathogens. showed clear antagonism against Alternaria alternata, Botrytis cinerea, Clavibacter michiganensis subsp....
Background Small colony variants (SCVs) are slow-growing bacteria, which often show increased resistance to antibiotics and cause latent or recurrent infections. It is therefore important understand the mechanisms at basis of this phenotypic switch. Methodology/Principal Findings One SCV (termed PAO-SCV) was isolated, showing high gentamicin cephalosporine cefotaxime. PAO-SCV prone reversion as evidenced by emergence large colonies with a frequency 10−5 on media without while it stably...
Aims The main objective of this study was to investigate the effect various essential oils (EOs) decrease activity cell wall degrading enzymes (CWDEs) produced by fungal phytopathogens, which are associated with disease progress. Also, seed treatment and foliar application peppermint EO its constituent, menthol, on diseases caused two necrotrophic pathogens bean investigated. Methods Results Antifungal EOs Rhizoctonia solani Macrophomina phaseolina, as pathogens, evaluated. Mentha piperita,...
Among the poaceae family, cereals are known as most important products because they main source of energy and food. Different plant pathogens, including oomycetes, fungi, bacteria, nematodes viruses, can infect cereal products. Fungal diseases group causing significant crop losses worldwide. Several techniques, chemical control, use resistant cultivars, biological application antimicrobial metabolites be used to manage diseases. The is limited due undesirable environmental effects emergence...
Rhizoctonia solani is one of the most destructive pathogens causing foot rot disease on tomato. In this study, molecular and cellular changes a partially resistant (Sunny 6066) susceptible (Rio Grande) tomato cultivar after infection with necrotrophic soil-borne fungus R. were compared. The expression defense-related genes such as chitinase ( LOC544149 ) peroxidase CEVI-1 in infected cultivars was investigated using semiquantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)....
Citrus bacterial canker (CBC) caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. (Xcc), is the most devastating of citrus diseases worldwide. During our study, we found that Essential oils (EOs) some cultivars are effective on Xcc. Therefore, it prompted us to determine plant metabolites responsible for antibacterial properties. We obtained EOs from locally cultivated using a Clevenger apparatus and their major constituents were identified gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The effect aurantium,...
The objective of this study was to identify grapevine epiphytic yeasts and bacteria for biocontrol Botrytis cinerea on grapes. Antagonistic were isolated from the flora associated with grape berries leaves cv. ‘Thompson seedless’ vineyards in Iran identified by sequencing conserved genomic regions. A total 130 yeast bacterial isolates surface screened vitro determining their antagonistic effect against B. used control postharvest gray mold. Among isolates, five four showed greatest activity...
In this study, efficiency of the endophytic fungal isolate Msh5 was evaluated on promoting tomato plant growth and controlling Alternaria alternata, causal agent early blight in tomatoes. Morphological molecular (ITS tub2 sequences) analyses revealed that isolate, Msh5, Acrophialophora jodhpurensis (Chaetomium jodhpurense Lodha). This beneficial fungus capable producing indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), urease, siderophore, extracellular enzymes, solubilized phosphate. Under laboratory conditions,...
