therapeutic action: Seed germination enhancement

Identification and growth-promoting effect of Paecilomyces lilacinus a biocontrol fungi for walnut rot disease

mycolabadmin

Scientists identified a beneficial fungus called Paecilomyces lilacinus from walnut soil that can fight walnut rot disease more safely than chemical fungicides. Testing showed this fungus not only kills the disease-causing pathogen but also boosts walnut seed germination and seedling growth by up to 98%. This natural solution could help walnut farmers protect their crops while avoiding harmful chemical pesticides.

Researchers developed a new biodegradable material for agriculture made from mould mycelium and waste plant fibres. This eco-friendly crop cover can be used instead of synthetic plastic sheets that damage soil and pollute it with microplastics. The material breaks down naturally in soil within 10 days and can help seeds germinate better, offering farmers a sustainable alternative for protecting their crops.

Researchers identified a beneficial fungus called Paecilomyces lilacinus that can fight walnut rot disease, which damages walnut crops especially in China’s Xinjiang region. This fungus is more environmentally friendly than chemical fungicides and actually boosts walnut plant growth, increasing seedling height and root development significantly. The study shows it could replace harmful chemical treatments while improving overall plant health.
