Water Extracts' Effect on the Growth of Wheat.

For a long time, entomopathogenic fungi were considered alternative biological control factors. Recently, these organisms were shown to fulfill additional roles supporting plants' development, improving their resistance to disease and survival under stress conditions. Considering the documented interactions of with a wide range of plants, we aimed to evaluate the impact of aqueous extracts of the fungus on the growth of an agriculturally significant plant-wheat.
