Comparative study of endophytic bacterial strains from non-host crops for enhancing plant growth and managing early blight in tomato.

, , and are potent bacterial endophytes, which typically exhibit host-specific interactions. However, comparative studies of these endophytes and in non-host crops are lacking. Therefore, in this study, we evaluated the potential of endophytes strain HP3d, strain PGSS1, strain A6, and P42, isolated from various crop ecosystems in promoting plant growth and inducing systemic resistance against early blight disease in tomato.

Oligo-Metastatic Ductal Breast Carcinoma Presenting as a Subcutaneous Nape Nodule: A Case Report.

Breast cancer (BC) in females is the most diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer death in women worldwide, followed by lung, colorectal, and cervical cancers. For oligo-metastatic (OM) cancers, the best definition is a maximum of five metastatic foci, not necessarily located in the same organ or anatomic region, all potentially treatable by ablative local treatment: either surgical resection or radiation when accessible. Oligo-metastatic breast cancer (OM-BC) is currently arising as an emerging entity with more focused research needed to upgrade the guidelines for best management.

Silver nanoparticles synthesized using aerial part of Achillea fragrantissima and evaluation of their bioactivities.

Achillea fragrantissima (A. fragrantissima), a desert plant, is used internally in Arabian traditional medicine to treat inflammatory, spasmodic gastrointestinal disorders, and hepatobiliary diseases. The study focuses on the environmentally friendly production of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from the water-based aerial parts of the A.

Molecular characterization of plant growth-promoting Trichoderma from Saudi Arabia.

Fungi in the genus Trichoderma are widespread in the environment, mainly in soils. They are used in agriculture because of their mycoparasitic potential; Trichoderma have the ability to increase plant health and provide protection against phytopathogens, making them desirable plant symbionts. We isolated, identified, and characterized Trichoderma from different regions of Saudi Arabia and evaluated the ability of Trichoderma to promote plant growth.
