Bacillus safensis LS01 provides biological control of potato common scab with potential effects from secondary metabolites.

Aims: Potato common scab (CS), caused by pathogenic Streptomyces, is a devastating disease affecting potato crops worldwide. Antagonistic microorganisms have been used as biological control agents to inhibit Streptomyces scabies and reduce the use of synthetic pesticides. However, identifying beneficial microorganisms for controlling CS remain undetermined.

CTPS cytoophidia formation affects cell cycle progression and promotes TSN‑induced apoptosis of MKN45 cells.

Cytidine triphosphate synthase (CTPS) forms filamentous structures termed cytoophidia in numerous types of cell. Toosendanin (TSN) is a tetracyclic triterpenoid and induces CTPS to form cytoophidia in MKN45 cells. However, the effects of CTPS cytoophidia on the proliferation and apoptosis of human gastric cancer cells remain poorly understood.

Treatment With Wheat Root Exudates and Soil Microorganisms From Wheat/Watermelon Companion Cropping Can Induce Watermelon Disease Resistance Against f. sp. .

Companion cropping with wheat ( L.) can enhance watermelon [ (Thunb.) Matsum.

Application of Sodium Silicate Enhances Cucumber Resistance to Fusarium Wilt and Alters Soil Microbial Communities.

Exogenous silicates can enhance plant resistance to pathogens and change soil microbial communities. However, the relationship between changes in soil microbial communities and enhanced plant resistance remains unclear. Here, effects of exogenous sodium silicate on cucumber ( L.

Physiological response and sulfur metabolism of the V. dahliae-infected tomato plants in tomato/potato onion companion cropping.

Companion cropping with potato onions (Allium cepa var. agrogatum Don.) can enhance the disease resistance of tomato plants (Solanum lycopersicum) to Verticillium dahliae infection by increasing the expressions of genes related to disease resistance.

An endophytic Streptomyces sp. strain DHV3-2 from diseased root as a potential biocontrol agent against Verticillium dahliae and growth elicitor in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum).

Plant endophytes play important roles in biocontrol of plant diseases. Actinomycetes are used for biocontrol of fungal diseases caused by Verticillium dahliae. Many studies have focused on the endophytic actinomycetes isolated from the roots of healthy plants, but few on those from the roots of diseased plants.

Effects of Intercropping with Potato Onion on the Growth of Tomato and Rhizosphere Alkaline Phosphatase Genes Diversity.

Background And Aims: In China, excessive fertilization has resulted in phosphorus (P) accumulation in most greenhouse soils. Intercropping can improve the efficiency of nutrient utilization in crop production. In this study, pot experiments were performed to investigate the effects of intercropping with potato onion (Allium cepa L.

Companion cropping with potato onion enhances the disease resistance of tomato against Verticillium dahliae.

Intercropping could alleviate soil-borne diseases, however, few studies focused on the immunity of the host plant induced by the interspecific interactions. To test whether or not intercropping could enhance the disease resistance of host plant, we investigated the effect of companion cropping with potato onion on tomato Verticillium wilt caused by Verticillium dahliae (V. dahliae).
