Novel Natural Compound from Aspergillus fumigatus Helps Against Meloidogyne incognita
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) pose a great threat to global agriculture, which could cause an estimated annual yield loss of more than $157 billion per year. To replace biohazardous nematicides, there is an ever-increasing need to identify natural pr...Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) pose a great threat to global agriculture, which could cause an estimated annual yield loss of more than $157 billion per year.
