Biocontrol of Plant Disease by Claire Prigent-Combaret,Bernard Dumas Pdf

Faced with climate changes, pest pressure on plants is increasing and new pest complexes are appearing, for which plant protection solutions are not yet available. The reduction of anthropic pressure on agroecosystems requires a reduction in the use of chemical inputs and the promotion of biocontrol approaches. In this book, we present new advances on plant disease management that are emerging from research outputs. The ability of biocontrol products to directly (e.g. production of antimicrobial peptides or quorum quenching activities by microorganisms, use of plant or agro-industrial by-products as biopesticides, etc.) or indirectly (e.g. via the increase of plant defense or plant growth pathways) protect plants against pathogens and pests is also considered. We also address new strategies like the development of phage-based biocontrol products and those that consider the plant as a holobiont and plant microbiota as targets of biocontrol treatments. The important question of the current regulatory process needed to launch plant production products on the market is also addressed, such as methods to evaluate their environmental impact.

Quorum Quenching for Biocontrol of Plant Diseases by Shaohua Chen,Wen-Juan Chen Pdf

Pathogenic microorganisms can cause crop diseases in various plants, leading to a decline in the quality and yield of crops. To more sustainably mitigate the impact of crop diseases on plant health and productivity, there is a need for more safe and eco-friendly strategies as compared to chemical prevention.

Microbial Biocontrol: Molecular Perspective in Plant Disease Management by Kubilay Kurtulus Bastas,Ajay Kumar,U. Sivakumar Pdf

This book is exploring molecular insight of plant disease resistance, enhancing plant immunity as well as the latest omics or approaches in plant disease management. In the recent past, microbial strains or products frequently utilized to inhibit the growth of phytopathogen and disease management. However, it is well known that plants respond to numerous biotic and abiotic stresses by morphological, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms. But still there is much more to study about their molecular aspect of interaction between host- pathogens- biocontrol agents that will be helpful in formulation and applications of microbial antagonistic for effective management of phytopathogens. This book attempt to fill this gap in the literature. This book is of interest to teachers, researchers, agronomist, horticulturalist scientists, capacity builders and policymakers. Also the book serves as additional reading material for undergraduate and graduate students of agriculture, microbiology, environment science.

Innovative Microbial Disease Biocontrol Strategies and Their Multifaceted Applications by Wen-Juan Chen,Shaohua Chen Pdf

With the increasing resistance exhibited by undesirable microorganisms to tradition-al antibiotics, the need to discover alternative (or, at least, supplementary) treatments to combat chemically resistant microbes is becoming urgent. Quorum sensing (QS) refers to a novel microbial communication system for monitoring cell density and regulation of a network of gene expression that is mediated by a group of signaling molecules called autoinducers (AIs). QS-regulated multicellular behaviors include biofilm formation, horizontal gene transfer, and antibiotic synthesis, which are demonstrating increasing pathogenicity to plants and aquacultural animals as well as contamination of wastewater treatment devices. To inhibit QS-re- gulated microbial behaviors, the strategy of quorum quenching has been developed. Different quorum quenchers interfere with QS through different mechanisms, such as competitively inhibiting AI perception (e.g., by QS inhibitors) and AI degradation (e.g., by quorum quenching enzymes). In this book, we aim to collect research dealing with the inno-vative microbial disease biocontrol strategies via QS that have relevance in microbi-ology, biochemistry, molecular biology, genetics, pathology, chemistry, and all om-ics-based sciences. Reaching a great combination of the recent studies on the micro-bial disease biocontrol strategies and their multifaceted applications, this book is one of the most practical and up-to-date references available on the subject. This allows the knowledge of quorum sensing accessible to a wider range of audiences, and also introduces new thoughts and new methods for researchers, practitioners in dealing with biocontrol or related issues. The fundamental concepts, experimental process, statistical analyses, and comprehensive discussions are covered in detail, providing the readers a systematic understanding of the field.

Advances in Plant Pathology by Josphert N. Kimatu Pdf

Plant pathology deals mainly with biotic phenomena that interfere with the normal metabolism of plants. Plants have developed mechanisms to deal with pathogenic attacks, while at the same time, pathogens are actively devising ways of overcoming the plant defense systems. Plant pathologists have been advancing their studies from morphological and physiological to now molecular studies at the gene level. There are various approaches for different microorganisms and plants. This makes the study of plant pathology diverse. This book, Advances in Plant Pathology, attempts to investigate advances in viral, fungal, bacterial, and other diagnostic molecular approaches in various plants.
