Endophytic Fungi as Potential Bio-Control Agents of Soil-Borne Pathogen

Deleted Journal, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 76(3), P. 617 - 636

Published: March 11, 2024

As possible biocontrol agents against soil-borne infections, root endophytic fungi, also known as fungal endophytes, have gained attention. Recently, it has been discovered that endophytes and fungi found in plant roots are promising for diseases. These can shield plants from the harm knots rot pathogens cause. They display characteristics crucial long-term disease control agriculture, such generation of systemic resistance, production antifungal metabolites, stimulation development. This review examines different types, underlying mechanisms, relationships with pathogens. Using agricultural systems requires standardized selection, application, evaluation approaches. Fungal shown promise preventing spread diseases, reducing need chemical pesticides, increasing crop yields. other could improve pathogen management viability food production. Supporting ecologically friendly methods accelerating sustainable agriculture be accomplished use these helpful fungi. However, further study is required to explore entophytic dramatically practices provide more eco-friendly agriculture.

ABSTRACT The scientific interest in using natural methods to control plant diseases and pests is significantly growing. Microorganisms predators that feed on plant–parasitic nematodes are important controlling these pests. Many studies show promising results enemies manage nematode populations. Our review identifies the most for different types of nematodes. We highlight fungi such as Purpureocillium lilacinum , Metacordyceps chlamydosporia Hirsutella rhossiliensis Orbilia oligospora Arthrobotrys spp., bacteria Pasteuria penetrans Bacillus subtilis Pseudomonas fluorescens . These species strong potential against specific genera Meloidogyne Heterodera Pratylenchus Globodera Despite their effectiveness, several challenges hinder widespread use. include a lack awareness among farmers, difficulties mass‐producing applying bioagents limited research effectiveness various environmental conditions. Future should focus overcoming challenges. This includes improving production application bioagents, educating farmers conducting more field confirm effectiveness. By addressing concerns, biological can become reliable sustainable method managing agriculture.
