Biocontrol potential of Burkholderia spp. against Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici infecting tomato

Abstract Background Fusarium wilt of tomato caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (FOL) is a serious disease. Host resistance and soil fumigation may reduce the impact of FOL, but the effectiveness may decrease over time due to the diversity and evolution of pathogens....

A streamlined protocol for small-scale protoplast generation and CRISPR/Cpf1-mediated genome editing in Fusarium oxysporum

Fusarium oxysporum plays crucial roles as both a damaging plant pathogen and a model for studying host-pathogen interactions. It is well established that systematic functional genomics approaches are vital for advancing agricultural biotechnology and developing biological agents....
