“…Existence of earthworms makes the soil more fertile and increases its porosity which helps in flowing of air into the soil and also helps water to penetrate deep into the soil and helps the tree roots to get required amount of water. Earthworms plays an important role in soil ecology as they provide plenty of organic matter through their stool and also increase the porosity of the soil [15].…”

Agriculture is a strong foundation of economy for many agriculture-based countries like India. In the economies of many nations, including India, where banana farming is quite important, agriculture is a key component. Musa Acuminata is the scientific name for the banana, and a banana tree normally lives for about 25 years. Banana cultivation typically lasts 9 to 12 months. The persistent threat of illnesses, which can drastically affect yield and quality, is just one of the many difficulties faced by the banana industry. This study focuses on overcoming these obstacles by observing the health of the soil and detecting infections in banana plants. The yield and crop quality of bananas can be negatively impacted by a number of variables, including illnesses. Developing an efficient method for spotting diseases in banana plants is our main goal, and we're also constantly keeping an eye on the condition of the soil. The main methodology we use for identifying diseases is SVM. In addition, we use procedures for soil monitoring to measure soil pH levels, minerals, and other essential elements that affect the health of the soil. The study shows good results in identifying diseases, ensuring prompt treatments to reduce risks associated with diseases. Furthermore, strong plant growth and increased yields are facilitated by realtime soil health monitoring. By tackling the ongoing threat of illnesses in banana cultivation through SVM-based disease identification and ongoing soil health monitoring, this research offers a vital contribution to the agricultural sector. The study shows promise in identifying diseases and guaranteeing prompt actions to reduce risks associated with diseases. Furthermore, strong plant growth and increased yields are facilitated by real-time soil health monitoring. This paper is focused on both types of diseases of banana plant and minerals in the soil.

“…Fungicides are generally applied to handle leaf spot diseases [4]. However, frequent application may lead the pathogen to resist the fungicides [5] and could also be lethal to humans, animals, and plants [6]. Therefore, this study is aimed to assess the inhibitory effect of several medium-power lasers with different wavelengths and energies on the growth of Curvularia sp.…”

In the seedling stage, oil palm plants are susceptible to several diseases. Leaf spot disease caused by fungi or bacteria often appears that can lead to a failure and even death of the seeds. Spraying fungicides is usually conducted to diminish the fungi growth on the leaf. However, a continuous application of fungicides can become a resistance condition of the fungi to the given fungicides. In this research, a laser-based irradiation system is proposed to attack the fungi growth on the leaf. Photon as an electromagnetic wave is expected to penetrate the fungal cell, yielding dormant DNA, subsequently leading to the fungi’s death. The photon energy’s suitability could influence this technique’s effectiveness according to the absorption energy of the targeted fungal/bacterial cell. This work presents a preliminary result on the generated light power and the beam area at ∼16.59 mW/cm2 and ∼24 cm2, respectively, on Curvularia sp. under laboratory conditions.

“…While chemical fungicides, including copper-based compounds, have been utilized for the control of pear Valsa canker, the penetration of the pathogen into the deep xylem of the host renders most chemical treatments ineffective in the inner portions of the tree trunk, thereby allowing unimpeded pathogen progression ( Abe et al, 2007 ; Song et al, 2020 ). In addition, escalating concerns about potential toxicity and ecological risks posed by fungicide residues have catalyzed the pursuit of preferable alternative methods to address the disease ( Zubrod et al, 2019 ; Ismaila et al, 2023 ). For sustainable agricultural practices, innovative strategies such as biological control have surfaced as promising tools for controlling pear Valsa canker and reducing the adverse effects of traditional methods.…”

IntroductionPear Valsa canker, caused by Valsa pyri (V. pyri), poses a major threat to pear production. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of the cell-free supernatant (CFS) produced by Trichoderma virens (T. virens) to control the development of pear Valsa canker and reveal the inhibitory mechanism against the pathogenic fungi.ResultsUsing morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analysis, the pathogen G1H was identified as V. pyri, and the biocontrol fungus WJ561 was identified as Trichoderma virens. CFS derived from WJ561 exhibited strong inhibition of mycelial growth and was capable of reducing the pathogenicity of V. pyri on pear leaves and twigs. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations revealed deformations and shrinkages in the fungal hyphae treated with CFS. The CFS also destroyed the hyphal membranes leading to the leakage of cellular contents and an increase in the malondialdehyde (MDA) content. Additionally, CFS significantly inhibited the activities of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), and downregulated the expression of antioxidant defense-related genes in V. pyri, causing the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Artesunate, identified as the main component in CFS by liquid chromatograph-mass spectrometry (LC–MS), exhibited antifungal activity against V. pyri.ConclusionOur findings demonstrate the promising potential of T. virens and its CFS in controlling pear Valsa canker. The primary inhibitory mechanism of CFS involves multiple processes, including membrane damage and negatively affecting enzymatic detoxification pathways, consequently leading to hyphal oxidative damage of V. pyri. This study lays a theoretical foundation for the utilization of T. virens to control V. pyri in practical production.
