Applications of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi in Controlling Root-Knot Nematodes
Meloidogyne nematodes cause diseases in economically important plants. These sedentary endoparasites modify plant roots, creating feeding sites and... -
Is localized acquired resistance the mechanism for effector-triggered disease resistance in plants?
Plant nucleotide-binding leucine-rich repeat receptors (NLRs) are intracellular immune receptors that are activated by their direct or indirect...

Biometabolomics of Crucifer’s Host-Pathosystem
During Albugo–Brassica interaction, host metabolism is activated to regulate photosynthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, and respiration. The... -
Secondary Metabolites of Endophytic Fungi Against Candidiasis
Plants have the ability to produce bioactive substances that aid in the treatment or prevention of disease. They also offer endophytes a special... -
Photograph registration of petri dishes in high quality and image editing of microbiological assays
Science is based on evidence that can be measured or observed through methodical techniques which are expressed in several ways, either...
