Article Synopsis
  • A soilborne fungal pathogen causes vascular wilt diseases in important crops; however, beneficial spp. can suppress these pathogens through mechanisms like mycoparasitism, though how they do this is still not fully understood.* -
  • In a study evaluating 15 isolates for their ability to degrade microsclerotia, isolate HZA14 showed the best performance by significantly inhibiting the growth of the pathogen and reducing disease severity in eggplant seedlings.* -
  • To explore the mycoparasitism mechanism of HZA14, gene expression analyses revealed significant changes, with many genes linked to microsclerotia degradation being up-regulated, confirming the isolation's effectiveness in both disease control and promoting plant growth.*

The environmental impact of industrial development has been well-documented. The use of physical and chemical methods in industrial development has negative consequences for the environment, raising concerns about the sustainability of this approach. There is a growing need for advanced technologies that are compatible with preserving the environment.

is the most destructive pathogen, causing bacterial wilt disease of eggplant. The present study aimed to develop green synthesis and characterization of silver chloride nanoparticles (AgCl-NPs) by using a native bacterial strain and subsequent evaluation of their antibacterial activity against . Here, a total of 10 bacterial strains were selected for the biosynthesis of AgCl-NPs.

To control the disease caused by , a total of 15 isolates of the species was screened for the biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Among them, the highest yield occurred in the synthesis of AgNPs using a cell-free aqueous filtrate of HZA14 producing gliotoxin. The synthetic AgNPs were charactered by SEM, EDS, TEM, XRD, and FTIR.
