Given the current trend towards reducing use of chemical controls in agriculture, microbial resources such as plant endophytes are being intensively investigated for traits that conducive to protection. Among various important target pathogens, Fusarium graminearum is a fungal pathogen cereal crops responsible severe yield losses and mycotoxin contamination grains. In present study, we bacteria...

En los últimos años, la fitorremediación se ha convertido en una tecnología emergente debido a su bajo costo y sustentabilidad. El propósito de esta investigación fue evaluar capacidad fitorremediadora vetiver agua contaminada con arsénico (5 mg L-1) plomo (10 L-1). Para esto utilizó potable como matriz ya que representa especial vulnerabilidad riesgo contaminarse por estos compuestos a...

Abstract Background Research interest in plant essential oils has increased significantly due to their natural properties and consumer demand for safer methods of food preservation. Plants produce large amounts secondary metabolites, which have potential activity against fungal pathogens. This study aimed at screening antifungal effects on citrus Penicillium digitatum , morphological effect fin...

Overuse of antibiotics has resulted in widespread contamination the environment and triggered antibiotic resistance pathogenic bacteria. Conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are not equipped to remove antibiotics. Effluents from WWTPs usually primary source aquatic environments. There is an urgent need for cost-effective, environment-friendly technologies address this issue. Along w...

Abstract Phytoremediation using Vetiver grass (VG) has been used in the past few decades all over world, but effectiveness of its uptake mechanism water less discussed especially mixed metal conditions. Hence, focus this research was to determine and evaluate heavy removal two metals, copper (Cu) iron (Fe), based on vetiver toxicity. Three treatments Fe Cu mixture were chosen, individual concen...
