Bacillus amyloliquefaciens SQR9 exhibited predominantly antagonistic activities against a broad range of soilborne pathogens. The fungi-induced SQR9 extracts possess stronger antifungal activities compared with SQR9 monoculture extracts. To investigate how SQR9 fine-tunes lipopeptides (LPs) and a siderophore bacillibactin production to control different fungal pathogens, LPs and bacillibactin p...

Oomycetes constitute an important agricultural pathogen for plants of the Solanaceae family. Black shank, caused by Phytophthora parasitica var. nicotianae, is one of the most important diseases affecting tobacco plantations in Cuba and worldwide, constituting an occasional cause of major economic losses. We have constructed a subtractive library with the aim of identifying tobacco genes involv...

Eicosatetraenoic acid (ETA, 20:4, ω-3) is the desaturation product of dihomo-gamma linolenic (DGLA, 20:3, ω-6) catalyzed by delta-17 desaturase, which considered as a healthy that helps to lower risk heart diseases. The oleaginous filamentous fungus, Mucor circinelloides, has been used for long time model micro-organism GLA production at industrial scales. However, M. circinelloides lacks key e...
