Characterization and bioefficacy of grapevine bacterial endophytes against causing anthracnose disease.

Introduction: Grapevine ( L.), one of the economically important fruit crops cultivated worldwide, harbours diverse endophytic bacteria (EBs) responsible for managing various fungal diseases. Anthracnose () (Penz.

Prevalence of Refractive Errors Among Medical Students of Raichur Institute of Medical Sciences, Raichur, Karnataka, India.

Introduction Refractive errors (REs) are on the rise among medical students due to the high academic pressure of long hours of reading and their association with close technology. Uncorrected REs cause impaired vision and blindness with considerable morbidity. Documenting the prevalence of REs among medical students helps with early detection and appropriate remedial measures to prevent eye morbidity.

Current Status and Future Perspectives on Distribution of Fungal Endophytes and Their Utilization for Plant Growth Promotion and Management of Grapevine Diseases.

Grapevine is one of the economically most important fruit crops cultivated worldwide. Grape production is significantly affected by biotic constraints leading to heavy crop losses. Changing climatic conditions leading to widespread occurrence of different foliar diseases in grapevine.

Biocontrol potential of endophytic fungi originated from grapevine leaves for management of anthracnose disease caused by .

Unlabelled: In the present study, 51 fungal endophytes (FEs) were isolated, purified and identified from the healthy leaf segments of ten grapevine varieties based on the spore and colony morphologies and ITS sequence information. The FEs belonged to the Ascomycota division comprising eight genera viz., , , , , and .
