Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titlePromising Biocontrol Agents Against the Main Pathogens of Apple Fruit RotElvira Ismailova, Nurlan Kuldybayev, Gul Baimakhanova et al.Current study looked into how well microorganisms, both those already known and newly found, from the surface of plants in gardens in southern and southeastern Kazakhstan could fight against other harmful microbes. We evaluated the effectiveness of 16 strains of lactic acid bacteria, 11 strains from the Bacillus and Pseudomonas genera, and 7 strains of Trichoderma fungi (all sourced from … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 25 Aug 2026 · 864 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMULTI-TRAITS OF NON-PATHOGENIC FLUORESCENT PSEUDOMONAS AND EVALUATION OF THEIR POTENTIEL AS BIOCONTROL AGENTSMehri Inès, Turki Yousra, Ben Rajeb Asma et al.In recent years, certain strains of fluorescent pseudomonads called PGPB have drawn attention due to their abilities to promote plant growth. Therefore, in this investigation, we have explored the adhesive properties, the phytostimulator effects and the biocontrol activities of 40 isolates, with the aim to select potential inoculants to improve crop yields. Ten different colony morphotypes were detected on CRA … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 16 Apr 2014 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBiocontrol of Soil Fungi in Tomato with Microencapsulates Containing Bacillus subtilisMarcela Hernàndez-Suàrez, Francisco Daniel Hernàndez-Castillo, Gabriel Gallegos-Morales et al.Problem Statement: An option to reduce pollution by synthetic agro-chemical in root plant disease management is the use of antagonist rhizobacteria belonging to Bacillus genus, because their inhibitory properties, stimulation of plant growth and crop yield increase. Approach: This study was carried out in order to evaluate if Bacillus subtilis strains could play an antagonists role of plant pathogens and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2011 · 8,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSwiftlet Bacteriophages Concerning Diversity and Biological Features in South Kalimantan, IndonesiaSiti Gusti Ningrum, Hana Cipka Pramuda Wardhani, Intan Permatasari HermawanWe aimed to isolate and characterize bacteriophages infecting Nitrobacter spp. from swiftlet house environments and to evaluate their biological properties as potential biocontrol agents to mitigate nitrate accumulation in edible bird’s nest (EBN) production. Environmental samples were collected from multiple swiftlet houses in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. Samples were enriched with Nitrobacter cultures, and bacteriophages were detected using spot assays followed … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 17 Apr 2026 · 1,759 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDecoding Late Blight of Potato and Tomato: Insights into Pathogen Dynamics, Host Interactions and Emerging SolutionsHumayra Ferdus, Mahabuba Mostafa, Dodi Al Sharif, Md. Motaher HossainThe oomycete Phytophthora infestans is the source of late blight, a devastating disease that significantly impacts on tomato and potato cultivation worldwide, threatening food security and causing considerable economic losses. This review explores the epidemiological dynamics of late blight, focusing on the pathogen's life cycle, reproductive strategies, and molecular pathogenesis. Traditional management strategies, including cultural practices, host resistance, and biocontrol … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 4 · 5 Feb 2026 · 2,530 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCapability of Streptomyces spp. in Controlling Bacterial Leaf Blight Disease in Rice PlantsRatih Dewi Hastuti, Yulin Lestari, Rasti Saraswati et al.Problem statement: Bacterial Leaf Blight (BLB) caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is the most damaging disease in lowland rice growing areas in Indonesia. Streptomyces spp. have been known as a producer of antimicrobial compounds that can be used as biocontrol agents. This study examined the ability of three promising indigenous Streptomyces isolates which were previously selected from in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 30 May 2012 · 9,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAspergillus Niger Metabolites Efficacies Against the Mosquito Larval (Culex Quinquefasciatus, Anopheles Stephensi and Aedes Aegypti) Population after Column ChromatographyNamita Soni, Soam PrakashProblem statement: Mosquito is a very common vector of several tropical diseases such as malaria, filariasis, dengue and chikungunya. Till todate, many xenobiotics have been used to control mosquito population and protect people from mosquito born diseases but increasing rate of resistance against these xenobiotics is a major concern in the disease control management. In contrast, extensive use of these … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2011 · 15,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening of Pseudomonas sp. Isolated from Rhizosphere of Soybean Plant as Plant Growth Promoter and Biocontrol AgentAris Tri Wahyudi, Rika Indri Astuti, GiyantoAbstract: Problem statement: Pseudomonas spesies are one of the rihizobacterial group that have an important role in plant growth promoter and plant health. To prepare them as inoculants, they must have a range of characters as growth promoter such as Indole Acetic Acid (IAA) producers which can promote the growth of plants and solubilize phosphates. In addition, they must also … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2011 · 9,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChitinolytic Bacteria Isolated from Chili Rhizosphere: Chitinase Characterization and Its Application as Biocontrol for Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci Genn.)Nisa Rachmania Mubarik, Irni Mahagiani, Amaryllis Anindyaputri et al.Problem statement: Chitin, a common constituent of insect exoskeleton, could be hydrolyzed by chitinase. The research was conducted to screen chitinolytic rhizobacteria isolated from rhizosphere of chilli pepper and to determine their chitinase activity in degrading chitin of whitefly, Bemisia tabaci Genn. (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). Whitefly is recognized as an important pest on many crops including chilli pepper.
