Powder containing biomolecules from Diaporthe schini for weed control.

This study describes the use of spray drying technology to obtain a powder containing biomolecules with herbicidal activity produced by submerged fermentation using . The efficiency of the bioherbicide was tested for the post-emergence control of L., L.

Weed control by metabolites produced from .

Weed control is a critical factor to ensure productivity and quality for food production. Chemical control is the main method used worldwide, but the demand for healthier food and the farmers' health and environment concerns have led to an increase in the search for alternative control methods. In this way, the use of biomolecules produced by microorganisms that present phytotoxic activity against weeds, such as exopolysaccharides, is attracting attention.

Concentration of metabolites from sp. using microfiltration membrane for increasing bioherbicidal activity.

This study is focused on the concentration of fermented broth from sp. to increase its herbicidal activity. For this purpose, biomolecules produced by submerged fermentation using sp.

Extracts from Lupinus albescens: antioxidant power and antifungal activity in vitro against phytopathogenic fungi.

Fungi are considered the most damaging microorganisms in agriculture. The indiscriminate use of chemical treatments in agricultural products causes the development of pest resistance and affects human health. An alternative to synthetic fungicides is the use of natural products such as plant extracts for the management of fungal diseases in plants.
