The present study examined the cultural significance of wheat and threat stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici) in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, aiming to protect farming heritage, promote sustainable practices, ensure future food security. A mixed-methods approach was employed capture multifaceted role within Rawalpindi’s social structure, traditions, security dynamics. Surveys interviews revealed that most fields were at tillering heading stages during survey period. Sporadic disease outbreaks, particularly milking stage, reported areas such as Maira Shareef Chakri villages, highlighting localized infections. To achieve objectives, qualitative component involved in-depth with 10 agricultural specialists cultivation 12 experienced farmers, selected through purposive sampling. For quantitative component, stratified random sampling used engage 300 providing broader insights into practices awareness. significant contrast emerged regarding awareness disease. Although farmers expressed concern about its potential reduce yields, much general population remained unaware This underscores importance targeted initiatives, grassroots campaigns delivered local languages address these knowledge gaps effectively. emphasized need for collaborative efforts among stakeholders, including researchers, policymakers, develop disease-resistant varieties. It also advocated ecosystem-based pest management strategies mitigate impact sustainability traditions.

Endophytic bacteria are an important source for developing antimicrobial substances. With the aim to find eco-friendly agents from natural sources, Streptomyces sp. R6 was isolated Azadirachta indica. After that, a new spirotetronate product, lobophorin S (compound 2), together with H8 1) and known macrolide compound divergolide C 3) were cultural solution of strain R6. These compounds mark first isolation marine-derived microbial products as lobophorins (LOBs) endophytic bacteria. The structures these three identified by extensive NMR HRMS analyses. activities against eight fungal four bacterial phytopathogens separately evaluated. Compound 1 demonstrated better antibacterial activity Erwinia carotovora, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato, P. lachrymans MIC values 3.91, 7.81, 15.63 μg/mL, respectively. Additionally, 1–3 all showed antifungal Botrytis cinerea, 1.95, Notably, in vivo effect B. cinerea up 78.51 ± 3.80% at 1.95 µg/mL, significantly surpassing polyoxin B (70.70 3.81%). results highlight potential promising lead development new, sustainable control plant diseases.

Sustainable agriculture increasingly relies on biocontrol agents as eco-friendly solutions to combat plant diseases while improving soil health. In this context, species of the genus Bacillus, particularly Bacillus subtilis, have shown promise effective for diseases. This study demonstrates successful fabrication biohybrid materials by decorating electrospun poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) fibers with electrosprayed chitooligosaccharide (COS) and subtilis using simultaneous electrospinning electrospraying. During electrospraying, COS formed a uniform film over PHB fibers, serving both an adhesive protective coating that maintained viability functionality embedded bacteria. SEM confirmed bacterial spores were uniformly spread across COS-coated biopolymer fibers. ATR-FTIR spectroscopy verified deposition mechanical assay demonstrated enhancement in characteristics after formation compared uncoated PHB. addition, improved wetting properties fibrous material, creating favorable environment growth development. Microbiological tests showed B. remained viable proliferated normally 48 h under suitable conditions at 28 °C agar medium. Furthermore, COS/B. subtilis-on-PHB also effectively inhibited pathogenic fungi, including Alternaria Fusarium. These findings highlight potential dual electrospinning/electrospraying techniques formulations. The integration coatings provides promising approach sustainable combining enhanced material antifungal activity.

Fungal diseases represent a significant threat to global agriculture, leading substantial crop losses and endangering food security worldwide. Conventional chemical fungicides, while effective, are increasingly criticized for their detrimental environmental impacts, including soil degradation, water contamination, the disruption of non-target organisms. Additionally, overuse these fungicides has accelerated emergence resistant fungal strains, further challenging disease management strategies. In response issues, bio-nanofungicides nano-biofungicides have emerged as cutting-edge solution, combining biocompatibility, safety, enhanced efficacy. These advanced formulations integrate bio-based agents, such microbial metabolites or plant extracts, with nanotechnology improve stability, controlled release, targeted delivery. Chitosan, silica, silver nanoparticles were extensively studied ability encapsulate bioactive compounds because outstanding antifungal activity, minimizing residues. Recent studies demonstrated potential nano-based address critical gaps in sustainable promising applications integrated pest systems. Here, we summarize last advances development analyze main differences between them. addition, challenges large-scale production, regulatory approval, comprehensive risk assessments discussed.

The exploration of natural products as lead scaffolds continues to serve a valuable strategy for the development novel antifungal agents. In this investigation, we focused on furanoid compound 2-heptyl-5-hexylfuran-3-carboxylic acid (HHCA) and designed synthesized four distinct series multisubstituted furan carboxylic derivatives. Comprehensive structural characterization biological evaluation were performed all 48 compounds. vitro screening against eight prevalent plant pathogens revealed that some these derivatives exhibited significant inhibitory effects Botrytis cinerea Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Structure-activity relationship analysis demonstrated peptide-containing showed superior potency compared with their hydrazide, amide, ester counterparts. most promising candidate 5g was further evaluated its in vivo efficacy two pathogens, S. sclerotiorum B. cinerea, indicating potent activity EC50 values 17.14 μg/mL 19.63 μg/mL, respectively. Notably, significantly lower than those product HHCA an enhanced potency. These findings highlight practical potential agent agricultural applications. Mechanistic investigations employing microscopic analysis, molecular docking simulations, density functional theory (DFT) calculations provided insights into putative mode action 5g, particularly regarding interaction succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). establish foundation rational HHCA-derived SDH-targeting fungicidal
