ABSTRACT Tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) is one of the most important vegetable crops, highly valued for its nutritional content and industrial applications. However, it susceptible to infections caused by over 200 pathogens. Pesticides have traditionally been a reliable option controlling pathogen invasions in but their harmful effects are well documented. An alternative pesticide use biological control. This review focuses on recent research microbiological control strategies tomato crops. The bacteria manage foliar diseases has shown great potential, particularly species from genera Bacillus Pseudomonas , which widely studied between 2016 2023. Additionally, fungi genus Trichoderma play crucial role as agents, they enhance nutrient solubilisation uptake plants.

Verticillium dahliae is highly prone to pathogenic differentiation and influenced by host cotton's resistance. To better understand the mechanisms of this phenomenon, we applied selective pressures resistant susceptible cotton varieties on V. strain Vd076 within an artificial wilt nursery greenhouse. Consequently, among offspring strains, high virulence strains exhibited higher levels physiological characteristics genetic diversity compared moderate low strains. Moreover, whole genome resequencing revealed that Ka/Ks ratio single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) in majority was about 0.6, indicating adverse selection impact Pathogenicity assays demonstrated triggered continuous induction disease-resistant cultivar increased from 4th generation reached its peak 6th generation. Additionally, transcriptome analysis generations differentially expressed genes (DEGs) accumulated a significant number response associated with pathogen pathogenicity differentiation, including mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway, amino antibiotic biosynthesis, phenylpropanoid metabolism. Furthermore, VDAG_04757, VDAG_06462, VDAG_03218, VDAG_08487 correlation dahliae. Collectively, study has implications for elucidating evolution induced host, as well advancing holistic strategies preventing managing disease.

ABSTRACT Plant resistance to pathogens can be significantly enhanced through genetic modification, thereby reducing the reliance on chemical pesticides. CONSTITUTIVE EXPRESSER OF PATHOGENESIS‐RELATED GENES 5 (CPR5) serves as a key negative regulator of plant immunity. Here we explored functional domains CPR5 protein with goal dampening its activity bolster Using hexapeptide asparagine–alanine–alanine–isoleucine–arginine–serine (NAAIRS) linker‐scanning analysis, identified heptad repeat domain (HRD) in middle region protein, which is highly conserved across kingdom. The HRD predicted form an α‐helix structure and acts interface for dimerization. Intriguingly, overexpression Arabidopsis wild‐type plants resulted phenotype similar cpr5 mutant led enhancement immunity, indicating that introduced HRDs disrupt native dimers, relieving suppression Furthermore, expression under control pathogen‐inducible promoter improved cotton Verticillium dahliae , destructive wilt pathogen affecting production worldwide.
