Sclerotinia sclerotiorum can initially suppress host oxidative burst to aid infection establishment, but later promotes reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation as proliferation advances. Here, it was shown that the cellular redox status can be modulated by thiamine to protect Arabidopsis thaliana against Sclerotinia at the early stages of infection. The initial inhibition of host ROS generatio...

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a phytopathogenic fungus that causes wilting and white rot in several species such as strawberry. The overuse of agrochemicals has caused environmental pollution plant resistance to phytopathogens. Inoculation crops with beneficial microorganisms arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM), plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR), their metabolites considered an alternative agro...
