Article Synopsis
- Soybean is one of the top five global food crops, with Brazil producing approximately 42% of the world's supply, but its production faces challenges from diseases like anthracnose.
- In 2013, anthracnose symptoms, such as brown lesions, were found in soybean fields in Brazil, leading to a detailed sampling process for identifying the pathogen.
- In 2023, a specific fungal isolate was reactivated and characterized for its genetic makeup using various molecular techniques and the findings were recorded in the GenBank database.
(Fabaceae) is used as green manure crop because of its nitrogen fixation and nematode control (Nascimento et al. 2020). In April 2018, leaf wilting, flower rot, and stem necrosis symptoms were observed on with 100% incidence, in Sorriso (12° 33' 31″ S, 55º 42' 51″ W), Santa Carmem (11° 55' 52″ S, 55º 16' 47″ W), and Sapezal (12º 59' 22″ S, 58º 45' 52″ W) counties in the state of Mato Grosso, Brazil.

Cutaneous secretions produced by amphibians of the family Bufonidae are rich sources of bioactive compounds that can be useful as new chemical templates for agrochemicals. In crop protection, the use of elicitors to induce responses offers the prospect of durable, broad-spectrum disease control using the plant's own resistance. Therefore, we evaluated the potential of methanolic extracts of cutaneous secretions of two species of amphibians of the family Bufonidae found in the Amazon biome-Rhaebo guttatus (species 1) and Rhinella marina (species 2)-in the synthesis of phytoalexins in soybean cotyledons, bean hypocotyls, and sorghum mesocotyls.
