Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites of microscopic fungi, which commonly contaminate
cereal grains. Contamination of small-grain cereals and maize with toxic metabolites of …

F usarium culmorum is a ubiquitous soil‐borne fungus able to cause foot and root rot and F

The aim of the study was a laboratory evaluation of the antifungal effect of leaf extracts from
yarrow (Achillea millefolium L.), tansy (Tanacetum vulgare L.), sage (Salvia officinalis L.) and …

Comparative analyses of pathogen genomes provide new insights into how pathogens have
evolved common and divergent virulence strategies to invade related plant species …

In this study, we investigated the effects of four long-term fertilization regimes that were
performed over 30 years, namely, non-fertilization (NoF), chemical fertilization (CF), manure …

Abstract 'Deep incorporation of corn straw'(CSDI) is to concentrate the burial of corn straw
into the subsurface soil layer (20–40 cm) and to break the plough pan, thereby creating a …

Priming refers to a mechanism whereby plants are sensitized to respond faster and/or more
strongly to future pathogen attack. Here, we demonstrate that preexposure to the green leaf …

Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate various biological processes in plants.
Considerable data are available on miRNAs involved in the development of rice, maize and …
