Submerged cultivation of sp. in batch and fed-batch modes for microbial oil production.

Microbial lipids are a valuable source of potential biofuels and essential polyunsaturated fatty acids. The optimization of the fermentation conditions is a strategy that affects the total lipid concentration. The genus sp.

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.

Solid-state fermentation for production of a bioherbicide from Diaporthe sp. and its formulation to enhance the efficacy.

In this study, a bioherbicide was produced by solid-state fermentation (SSF) using Diaporthe sp. Adjuvants were employed in a formulation to enhance the herbicidal activity towards the target (Cucumis sativus). The study was divided into two steps: (1) the fermentation condition for bioherbicide production was assessed; (2) evaluation of different formulations containing palm oil, Tween 80 and Span 80, in order to increase phytotoxicity.

Production of bioherbicide by Phoma sp. in a stirred-tank bioreactor.

The objective of this work was to produce an herbicide by submerged fermentation in a stirred-tank bioreactor and to assess the potential herbicidal in pre-emergence, post-emergence, and in a detached leaves of Cucumis sativus var species. wisconsin (cucumber) and Sorghum bicolor (sorghum) species. Fermentations were carried out in a stirred-tank bioreactor with useful volume of 3L.
