The soil-borne pathogens and have emerged as major pathogens of radish () worldwide. The induction of soil suppressive of radish root rot disease was evaluated in soil repeatedly inoculated with , nonpathogenic binucleate sp. AG-A W1 (BNR) and . The repeated inoculations of soil with and BNR significantly suppressed the disease severity of and compared to the control. In contrast, the repeated inoculation of soil with significantly suppressed only the pathogen, . The community structure was examined using PCR-DGGE (polymerase chain reaction denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis) method. The bands of sp. were observed in the first, second and third inoculations of the soil with BNR. Similarly, bands of sp. were observed in the second and third inoculations of the soil with and . Compared to the control, disease severity was significantly reduced in the soil repeatedly inoculated with and . In conclusion, species were accumulated in specific patterns depending on the applied fungal inoculum in the suppressive soil.

Introduction: Rice, particularly Basmati rice, holds significant global importance as a staple food. The indiscriminate use of phosphate-based fertilizers during rice production has led to high residual levels of these chemicals in soil, impacting soil health and fertility. This study aimed to address this challenge by investigating the potential of phosphate solubilizing bacteria (PSB) in improving soil fertility and boosting the growth of Basmati rice.

The proliferation of weeds, pests, and plant diseases in crop cultivation has driven the increased application of herbicide lactofen, insecticide acetamiprid, and fungicide carbendazim, contributing to environmental pollution. Microorganisms are requently employed to remove pesticide residues from the environment. However, Liquid bacterial agents encounter difficulties in transportation and preservation during application and the current immobilized bacterial agents have a single degradation function.

Crop plants are severely affected by heavy metals (HMs), leading to food scarcity and economical loss. Lead (Pb) is outsourced by use of lead-based fertilizers, batteries, mining, smelting and metal processing. It significantly reduces growth, development and yield of crops cultivated on contaminated sites.
