Inoculation of in vitro cultures with rhizosphere microorganisms improve plant development and acclimatization during immature embryo rescue in nectarine and pear breeding programs
(Elsevier, 2020-08-14)
In the present study, two fungi Cladosporium ramotenellum strain PGP02 and Phoma spp. strain PGP03 and the bacterium Pseudomonas oryzihabitans PGP01 were isolated from Pyrus and Prunus in vitro rescued ...
Double-sided battle: The role of ethylene during Monilinia spp. infection in peach at different phenological stages
(Elsevier, 2019-10-02)
Controversy exists on whether ethylene is involved in determining fruit resistance or susceptibility against biotic stress. In this work, the hypothesis that ethylene biosynthesis in peaches at different ...
Shelf life improvement of the biocontrol agent Candida sake CPA-1 by suitable package and storage conditions
(Springer, 2019-06-28)
Agrochemical companies are increasing their interest in the production of biopesticides based on biocontrol agents (BCAs), mainly due to the need to reduce the synthetic fungicide application and the ...
Rhizosphere microorganisms enhance in vitro root and plantlet development of Pyrus and Prunus rootstocks
(Springer, 2021-03-14)
The rooting of fruit tree rootstocks is the most challenging step of the in vitro propagation process.
The use of rhizosphere microorganisms to promote in vitro rooting and plant growth as an alternative ...
Differential contribution of the two major polygalacturonases from Penicillium digitatum to virulence towards citrus fruit
(Elsevier, 2018-05-31)
The fungus Penicillium digitatum is the causal agent of the citrus green mould, the major postharvest diseases of citrus fruit. Lesions on the surface of infected fruits first appear as soft areas around ...
PbSRT1 and PbSRT2 regulate pear growth and ripening yet displaying a species-specific regulation in comparison to other Rosaceae spp.
(Elsevier, 2021-05-01)
Epigenetic regulation is crucial to ensure a coordinated control of the different events that occur during fruit development and ripening. Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases involved in ...
Non-volatile signals and redox mechanisms are required for the responses of Arabidopsis roots to Pseudomonas oryzihabitans
(Oxford University Press, 2022-08-24)
Soil bacteria promote plant growth and protect against environmental stresses, but the mechanisms involved remain poorly characterized, particularly when there is no direct contact between the roots and ...
Compatibility interactions between the biocontrol agent Penicillium frequentans Pf909 and other existing strategies to brown rot control
(Elsevier, 2018-11-23)
Background
To improve efficacies achieved through biocontrol agent application, there has been increasing interest in studying the efficacy of biocontrol agent with other existing technologies like ...
Dehydration of Ampelomyces quisqualis CPA-9 conidia by adding biodegradable coatings: Biocontrol activity against powdery mildew and physical characterization of the formulated product
(Elsevier, 2021-07-07)
Ampelomyces quisqualis CPA-9 was reported as a promising biocontrol fungus against powdery mildew on cucurbits, although its formulation had not been developed. The present work aimed to develop a ...
