Nanoemulsion formulation of lemongrass essential oil using Pseudomonas-derived rhamnolipids for targeted phytopathogen suppression

This study developed a nano-sized formulation of lemongrass oil stabilized with naturally-derived rhamnolipid surfactant to fight plant fungal diseases. The formulation successfully inhibited the growth of three major plant pathogens and remained stable during storage. This bio-based approach offers farmers an environmentally-friendly alternative to synthetic chemical fungicides for protecting crops.

Xenorhabdus spp.: An Overview of the Useful Facets of Mutualistic Bacteria of Entomopathogenic Nematodes

Xenorhabdus bacteria are tiny organisms that naturally live inside microscopic worms used for pest control. These bacteria produce powerful substances that can kill harmful insects, fungi, and plant-damaging worms without using toxic chemical pesticides. Scientists are discovering new types of these bacteria and their compounds, which could help create safer products for farming and disease control. This research shows these beneficial microbes could replace harmful chemicals in agriculture.
