Jumbo phages have DNA genomes larger than 200 kbp in large virions composed of an
icosahedral head, tail, and other adsorption structures, and they are known to be abundant …

Conventional agricultural practices, such as rice plantations, often contaminate the soil and
water with xenobiotics. Here we evaluated the microbiota composition in experimental rice …

Jumbo bacteriophages, which have genomic DNA larger than 200 k-bp, are attracting
attention as potential biocontrol agents to suppress bacterial diseases in cultivated crops …

The world's population is increasing at an unprecedented rate and exceeded 7.5 billion in
2018. To meet the projected demands from not only the rising population, but also diet shifts …

In this study, we developed an effective and stable technique for suppressing seedling rot of
rice caused by Burkholderia glumae using bacterial communities cultured from nursery soils …

Increase in human population has led to industrialization and deterioration of the
environment, including the soil. Also, there is also a constant rise in demand for food, mostly …

Soil-borne diseases can cause significant negative impacts on crop production. To combat
these diseases, most farmers have been using chemicals such as soil fumigants to disinfest …
