Fusarium Soilborne Pathogen

Fusarium species are among the most persistent species of soilborne fungal pathogens. They cause severe economic damage in different agricultural production (potato, wheat, rice, etc.) due to the mycelia and chlamydospores that play a role during the infection of host plants. Our review has explored...

Sumario:Fusarium species are among the most persistent species of soilborne fungal pathogens. They cause severe economic damage in different agricultural production (potato, wheat, rice, etc.) due to the mycelia and chlamydospores that play a role during the infection of host plants. Our review has explored various studies on Fusarium species. The mechanisms involved in enhancing the protective ability of the Fusarium strain have been discussed. Furthermore, the current chemical and biological control methods to minimize Fusarium species’ impact on crops were highlighted. Future directions in the attempt to improve the control of Fusarium soilborne pathogens have been discussed.
