“…Another result of the study, when B. bassiana was applied to the soil contaminated with P. thornei at concentrations of 10 8 and 10 7 spores/ml, it was determined that the height and fresh weight of wheat plants and roots increased than the control. B. bassiana isolate (MARD 92) was identified to have endophytic property which enables it to be established within plant tissues and increases its field efficacy in controlling some pests (Khudhair et al 2016). Beserra et al (2019) reported that B. bassiana application in soybean positively affected vegetative development and reduced parasitism of P. brachyurus in roots.…”

Background Limited number of control methods against root-lesion nematodes has increased the search for alternative management strategies. Due to secondary metabolites such as toxins and enzymes secreted by the entomopathogenic fungus, Beauveria bassiana, the number of studies on nematicidal potentials on many plant parasitic nematodes has increased. Almost no work was done on the nematicidal activity of B. bassiana, which is widely used as a bio-insecticide, on the root lesion nematode, Pratylenchus thornei, commonly found on wheat in Turkey. In the present study, it was aimed to determine the pathogenicity of two native B. bassiana isolates (BIM-001 and BY2) obtained from Turkey against P. thornei on wheat under controlled conditions. Results Spore suspension of B. bassiana isolates affected P. thornei soil, root, final nematode density and reproduction rate at different degrees according to spore concentration. The soil, root, total nematode density, and reproduction rate in the control on İkizce cv. were 1234.0 adult + larvae/500 g soil, 1105.0 adult + larvae/per pot, 2341.0 (soil + root density) and 5.8 (PF(final nematode density/PI (initial inoculum density)), respectively. It was determined that these parameter values were at the lowest at 108 spore/ml than other concentrations in both isolates of B. bassiana. In 108 spore/ml concentrations of BIM-001 isolate, while P. thornei soil, root, total nematode density, and reproduction rate on İkizce were 641.7 adult + larvae/500 g soil, 930.9 adult + larvae/per pot, 1572.6 (soil + root density) and 3.9 (PF/PI), respectively, these parameter values were found to be 645.2 adult + larvae/500 g soil, 849.0 adult + larvae/per pot, 1492.2 (soil + root density) and 3.6 (PF/PI) at 108 spore/ml concentrations of BY2 isolate. It was observed that the reproduction rate of P. thornei decreased at 108 spore/ml concentration of BIM-001 and BY2 isolates compared to the control. Conclusion Native B. bassiana isolates of BIM-001 and BY2 reduced P. thornei on wheat and the concentration was important for the pathogenicity of B. bassiana. While the reproduction rate of P. thornei at 108 and 107 spores/ml concentrations in both isolates decreased than the control. At 106 spore/ml concentration it was found similar to the control. Even though B. bassiana is known as an effective biocontrol agent against insects and some plant-parasitic nematodes, more detailed studies should be done on its effect on P. thornei.

In many parts of the Asia, particularly in the arid regions of the middle east the date palm i.e. Phoneix dactylifera L. is considered a significant plant both culturally and economically. Over the past decade numerous biotechnological tools have been applied to revolutionize the date palm research and its cultivation process. In this comprehensive review ,we provided the in depth overview of the cutting edge developments in the date palm biotechnology, mentioning the important areas such as genomics, genetic engineering, in vitro propagation, omics technologies, and the integration of the artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI-ML).Due to these advancements ,in the date palm production how the date palm production lead the production of superior date palm cultivars with the improved yield ,fruit quality and resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses. Also it explores the application of the biotech tools in the enhancing pest and disease management strategies, increasing date palm productivity and developing the date palm based bio-factories for the production of high value compounds. This review highlights the current challenges faced by the date palm industries ,including the limited water resources ,genetic erosion , pests and disease and the need for improved postharvest handling and processing. It examines how these tools coupled with AI-based approaches can be leveraged to address these challenges and ensure the long term sustainability of date palm cultivation.

In many parts of Asia, especially in the regions which are arid in nature, present in the Middle East, the date palm, i.e. Phoneix dactylifera L., is a significant plant both culturally and economically. In the last decade, many biotechnological tools have been applied to revolutionize date palm research and its cultivation process. In this comprehensive review, we provided an in-depth overview of the cutting-edge developments in date palm biotechnology, mentioning the critical areas such as genomics, genetic engineering, in vitro propagation and incorporation of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI-ML). These advancements in date palm production led to the production of superior date palm cultivars with improved harvest, fruit traits, and resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses. Also, it explores the application of biotech tools in enhancing pest and disease management strategies, increasing productivity, and developing Date palm-based bio-factories for the synthesis of high-value compounds. This review highlights the current challenges faced by the date palm industries, including limited water resources, genetic erosion, pests and disease and the need for improved postharvest handling and processing. It examines how these tools, coupled with AI-based approaches, can be leveraged to address these challenges and ensure the long-term sustainability of date palm cultivation.
