Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleBiocontrol 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 · 8,934 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDiversity of the Rhizosphere Soil Culture-Dependent Fungi of Mature TobaccoXiaolin Li, Xinzhu Li, Kewei Zhao et al.Problem statement: The maturation of tobacco is a very important period of tobacco production. Until recently, there are no many reports on tobacco rhizospheric culturable fungi, especially at the mature stage. Approach: Five rhizosphere soils of tobacco and five non-rhizosphere soils of tobacco were collected in Yanbian county, Panzhihua. Sixty-one fungal strains isolated from these soil samples were analyzed by … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 26 Oct 2011 · 9,881 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Occurrence of Entomopathogenic Fungi on Mineral and Peat Soils in Peninsular MalaysiaPong Kuan Kin, Wahizatul Afzan Azmi, Norman Kamarudin et al.The aims of this study are to isolate and identify Entomopathogenic Fungi (EPF) from mineral and peat soils in relation with the soil physico-chemical parameters. The mineral soil was sampled from the MPOB Research Station Hulu Paka in Terengganu, whereas peat soil was sampled from the MPOB Research Station Teluk Intan in Perak. Isolation of these fungi was carried out … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 12 Jan 2017 · 8,206 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCharacterization of Fungal Communities in Limed and Unlimed Lands Contaminated with Metals: Phospholipid Fatty Acid (PLFA) Analysis and Soil RespirationKassandre Goupil, Kabwe K. Nkongolo, Sabah NasserullaNorthern Ontario (Canada) especially the Greater Sudbury region is highly known for its nickel, copper and other metal deposits. The mining, roasting and smelting of these elements have caused disastrous effects on the vegetation and overall environment. Dolomitic lime which contains calcium and magnesium carbonate was applied to soils from 1980 to 1995 at different locations across Northern Ontario. The … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 May 2015 · 8,100 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBioautography Guided Identification of Anticandidal Compounds from A. terreus st. 1B. K. Nagaraja, R. Sripathy, C. N. Ramchand, M. SundararamanProblem statement: Saprophytic and soil inhabiting microorganisms are prolific producers of secondary metabolites with wide range of structural and functional diversity. The objective of the current study was to screen and evaluate the anti-candidal properties of soil inhabiting fungi. Approach: Preliminary dual culture assay and bioautography was used to screen the fungi with potential anti-fungal activity and direct detection of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 1 Dec 2011 · 7,632 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Quick Method for Metarhizium anisopliae Isolation from Cultural SoilsM. A. Tajick Ghanbary, A. Asgharzadeh, A. R. Hadizadeh, M. Mohammadi SharifProblem statement: Fungi are one of the most active members in biological community of cultural soils. Many saprophyte and facultative parasitic fungi live in soil. Metarhizium anisopliae, one of the most famous soil inhabitant entomopathogens has a virulence potential on plant and animal pests. Approach: Introducing a new method for its isolation from soil was an applied method to find … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 9,326 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOff-road Vehicle-Induced Substrate Vibrations Are Associated with Strong Declines in Ectomycorrhizal Mushroom Fruiting in Forest EcosystemsLev ShestakovWe conducted a multi-year (2020-2024) control-impact field study in a pine forest of the Moscow Region to assess whether off-road vehicle activity affects the fruiting of two ecologically important ectomycorrhizal fungi, Boletus edulis and Suillus luteus. Substrate vibrations associated with vehicle passage were recorded and characterized by dominant energy in the low-frequency range. Over the study period, abundance in disturbed … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 23 May 2026 · 1,309 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacteristics of Antagonistic Activity of Two Trichoderma Species New to Kazakhstan Against Soil PathogensYelena Rakhimova, Assem Assylbek, Lyazzat Kyzmetova et al.The high efficiency of representatives of the Trichoderma genus in suppressing a wide range of plant pathogens contributes to the conduct of large-scale research on the search for local strains. The purpose of this study is to characterize the antagonistic activity of two Trichoderma species new to Kazakhstan (T. pararogersonii and T. rossicum) isolated from the rhizosphere of Picea schrenkiana … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 17 Oct 2023 · 4,461 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Characterization of Phosphate Solubilizing Activity of Endophytic Fungi from Zingiberaceous SpeciesErman Munir, Yurnaliza, Anisa Lutfia, Adrian HartantoPhosphorus (P), which is one of the less available soil macronutrients, is important for plant growth and metabolism. A promising strategy to increase the P uptake by plants is by introducing Phosphate-Solubilizing Microorganisms (PSM) into the P-deficient regions, to convert P into soluble forms through organic acids secreted by the PSMs. The aim of this study was to characterize the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2022 · 6,652 accessesView PDF Cite
