Standard surveillance and diagnostic protocols need to be evaluated and implemented at regional level, for early warning and coordination of rapid responses among neighbor countries. This dataset provides a description of 2020 surveillance data for cassava mosaic disease (CMD) in Laos, East Cambodia and Northern Vietnam, indicating location of the ...

The genome of Penicillium chrysogenum Q176 contains a gene coding for the 88-amino-acid (aa)-long glycine- and cysteine-rich P. chrysogenum antifungal protein C (PAFC). After maturation, the secreted antifungal miniprotein (MP) comprises 64 aa and shares 80% aa identity with the bubble protein (BP) from Penicillium brevicompactum , which has a publ...
ABSTRACT. Melon bacterial fruit blotch (BFB) is the major bacterial melon disease in Northeastern Brazil. We evaluated the effects of applying a silicon (Si) slag on BFB suppressiveness in two melons cultivars as well as in soil chemical attributes and plant growth and nutrition. Slag was incorporated into the soil at concentrations equivalent to 0...

2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol (2,4-DAPG) is a well-known bacterial secondary metabolite, however, its mechanism of inhibitory and subinhibitory action on bacterial cells is still poorly understood. The mechanism of 2,4-DAPG action on model bacterial strains was investigated using fluorescent spectroscopy and the action of the antibiotic was found to i...

Efforts to develop more environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional broad-spectrum pesticides in agriculture have recently turned to RNA interference (RNAi) technology. With the built-in, sequence-specific knockdown of gene targets following delivery of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), RNAi offers the promise of controlling pests and pathogens...

In human nutrition, oats ( Avena sativa L.) are mainly used for their dietary fiber, β-D-glucans and protein content. The content of β-D-glucans in oat grain is 2–7% and is influenced by genetic and/or environmental factors. High levels of this cell walls polysaccharide are observed in naked grains of cultivated oat. It the work, the relationship b...

A new family of bio-based herbicidal ionic liquids (HILs) has been synthesized starting from the renewable resource glycine betaine (a derivative of natural amino acids). After esterification, the obtained alkyl betainate bromides containing straight alkyl chains varying from ethyl to octadecyl were combined with a herbicidal anion from the sulfony...
