Researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have developed an innovative method for the early detection of Fusarium wilt in tomato plants by monitoring subtle changes in the plants' water use.

The successful field trial marks a significant breakthrough in the fight against Fusarium wilt. By focusing on parental improvement through mutation breeding, the Joint FAO/IAEA Centre is developing a ...

Most of Australia’s plants rely on a hidden underground network of fungi for water and minerals. They could be in trouble – ...

A recent study conducted by researchers from Arizona State University has uncovered alarming levels of Fusarium mycotoxins in illicit cannabis samples seized in Arizona and California. The study ...

The samples were tested for 23 types of mycotoxins and fungal metabolites. Notably, Fusarium mycotoxins such as fusarenon-X and diacetoxyscirpenol were present at levels exceeding regulatory ...

While aflatoxins present the most common risk in cattle feeds, Simpson notes that fumonisins, produced by Fusarium fungus, can emerge as a problem in cattle, such as during a 2016 outbreak in Texas.

Fungal infection, also known as a mycosis, refers to the invasion of a host's tissue by specific types of fungi. Mycoses often start in the lungs following inhalation of fungal spores or on the ...

But scientists at the University of Hawaii have found a possible solution - marine fungi. Researchers at the University of Hawaii (UH) in Mānoa believe it is a “promising and largely untapped ...

The manuscript would benefit more in explaining the study rationale if more background on previous characterization of this fungicide on Fusarium is given. The manuscript shows the mechanism of action ...
