Overexpression of the First Peanut-Susceptible Gene, or , Enhanced Susceptibility to DC3000 in Arabidopsis.

Salicylic acid (SA) serves as a pivotal plant hormone involved in regulating plant defense mechanisms against biotic stresses, but the extent of its biological significance in relation to peanut resistance is currently lacking. This study elucidated the involvement of salicylic acid (SA) in conferring broad-spectrum disease resistance in peanuts through the experimental approach of inoculating SA-treated leaves. In several other plants, the salicylate hydroxylase genes are the typical susceptible genes ( genes).

Genome Resource of PY-1, a Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Strain in Particular Antagonistic Against .

PY-1 exhibited promising antimicrobial properties; in particular, it is highly inhibitory to , which causes downy mildew of grape. It is very necessary to carry out systematic and in-depth research on the PY-1 strain for the improvement, application, and promotion of biocontrol agents. The PY-1 genome was fully sequenced and assembled.

Screening, and Optimization of Fermentation Medium to Produce Secondary Metabolites from for the Biocontrol of Early Leaf Spot Disease, and Growth Promoting Effects on Peanut ( L.).

A novel Bacillus amyloliquefaciens BAM strain, with novel fermentation nutrient mediums and compositions, could produce potent antifungal secondary metabolites, as the existing strains face resistance from fungus pathogens. In the current study, we introduced two novel nutrient mediums for the fermentation process, semolina and peanut root extract, as carbon and nitrogen sources in order to maximize the antifungal effects of B. amyloliquefaciens against Cercaspora arachidichola to control early leaf spot disease in peanuts.

A Comparison of Three Types of "Vineyard Management" and Their Effects on the Structure of Populations and Epidemic Dynamics of Grape Downy Mildew.

Grape downy mildew (GDM) is a destructive grapevine disease caused by that occurs worldwide. In this study, we determined the characteristics of GDM epidemics and the grapevine canopy micro-climate in open-field, fungicide-spray, and rain-shelter plots during two constitutive years (2016 and 2017). It was found that rain shelter can significantly delay the disease occurrence by 28 and 21 days, reduce the epidemic phase by 28 and 21 days, and decrease the final disease index by 82% and 83%.
