Take-all disease of Poaceae is caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis (Magnaporthaceae). Four varieties are recognised in G. graminis based on ascospore size, hyphopodial morphology and host preference. The aim of the present study was to clarify boundaries among species and varieties in Gaeumannomyces by combining morphology and multi-locus phylogenetic analyses based on partial gene sequences of ITS, LSU, tef1 and rpb1. Two new genera, Falciphoriella and Gaeumannomycella were subsequently introduced in Magnaporthaceae. The resulting phylogeny revealed several cryptic species previously overlooked within Gaeumannomyces. Isolates of Gaeumannomyces were distributed in four main clades, from which 19 species could be delimited, 12 of which were new to science. Our results show that the former varieties Gaeumannomyces graminis var. avenae and Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici represent species phylogenetically distinct from G. graminis, for which the new combinations G. avenae and G. tritici are introduced. Based on molecular data, morphology and host preferences, Gaeumannomyces graminis var. maydis is proposed as a synonym of G. radicicola. Furthermore, an epitype for Gaeumannomyces graminis var. avenae was designated to help stabilise the application of that name.

Cinnamic acid and geraniol are two well-known antifungal natural products and widely applied in food and cosmetics industries. To discover novel natural product-based fungicide candidates with more potent activity and good ecological compatibility for the management of plant diseases, a series of cinnamic acid-geraniol hybrids were prepared by means of molecular hybridization and their chemical structures were well confirmed by spectral analysis. The antifungal activities of the target compounds against three phytopathogenic fungi Fusarium graminearum, Gaeumannomyces graminis (Sacc.

The diphenyl ether molecular pharmacophore has played a significant role in the development of fungicidal compounds. In this study, a variety of pyrazol-5-yl-phenoxybenzamide derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for their potential to act as succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs). The bioassay results indicate certain compounds to display a remarkable and broad-spectrum in their antifungal activities.

Article Synopsis
- 27 new dehydroabietyl-1,2,4-triazole-5-thioether derivatives were synthesized and tested for antifungal activity, with one compound showing significant effectiveness against certain plant fungi.
- The compound was noted to protect apple branches and its structure-activity relationship revealed that electron-withdrawing groups enhanced its antifungal properties.
- Electron microscopy and action mode studies indicated that the compound disrupts fungal cell structures, increases reactive oxygen species, and interferes with key fungal enzymes, suggesting its potential as a new fungicide.

Bacillus velezensis has been known for its high potential in controlling agricultural diseases. Technological advances have opened new perspectives for producing effective formulations by reducing some of the obstacles to their use, such as instability and loss of activity due to exposure to adverse environmental conditions. Encapsulation is one of the new approaches in agricultural science.
