Nanomaterials for Plant Disease Diagnosis and Treatment: A Review

Scientists are developing tiny particles called nanomaterials to fight plant diseases caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses, and worms. These nanoparticles can detect infections quickly and treat diseases more effectively than traditional pesticides, while reducing harmful environmental impacts. The technology shows promise for safer, more sustainable farming that could help feed a growing global population.

Antibacterial and Antifungal Activity and Acute Toxicity of Crude Extracts From the Wild Edible Mushrooms Cantharellus veraecrucis, Cantharellus violaceovinosus, and Turbinellus floccosus

Researchers tested extracts from three wild edible mushroom species found in Mexican forests for their ability to fight harmful bacteria and fungi. The extracts showed promise against disease-causing microorganisms, with one species particularly effective against agricultural plant pathogens. While the extracts showed moderate toxicity at high doses, the results suggest these mushrooms could be developed into natural pesticides or medicines.
