Rhizoctonia bataticola is responsible for the spoilage of mango fruits (Mangifera india) during post-harvest preservation and storage. Culture of R. bataticola exhibited significant pectinase and cellulase activity. In Rhizoctonia-infected fruits an increase of protease and cellulase activity, and a decrease in certain enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism, were observed in comparison to healthy fruits.

This study explores the potential antagonistic effects of selenium-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles (Se-ZnO NPs), synthesized through a sustainable approach, on maize charcoal rot induced by the fungus Macrophomina phaseolina. Se-ZnO-NPs were prepared using the rhizobium extract of Curcuma longa and characterized for their physicochemical properties. Characterization included various in vitro parameters such as FTIR, ICP-MS, particle size, PDI, and zeta potential.

Charcoal rot, caused by the soilborne fungus , is one of the most economically important diseases affecting strawberry ( ×) production in California. Previous studies on non-strawberry hosts have shown that proper soil moisture management can limit pathogen colonization of plants and decrease disease severity. We performed field and greenhouse studies for two seasons with the objective of investigating the role of soil moisture in disease development and management of charcoal rot of strawberries.

Root rot caused by Macrophomina phaseolina, a common soil-borne disease in black gram, is managed with chemical fungicides, leading to toxicity and degradation of beneficial soil microbes. Existing bioagents, like talc formulation, cause leaching, clogging, and reduced productivity. The development of liquid bio-formulation via drip irrigation is crucial to mitigate biotic stress and maximize yield.
