Genetically closely related but phenotypically divergent Trichoderma species cause green mold disease in oyster mushroom farms worldwide

Article Abstract:

An integrated approach is used for determining that the causal agents of green mold disease in oyster mushroom are two genetically closely related, but phenotopically different species of Trichoderma. It is shown that the evolutionary pathway of Trichoderma pleuroticola is parallel to other saprotrophic and mycoparasitic species from the Harzianum clade and that this species have posed the highest infection risk for mushroom farms.

Effect of direct electric current on the cell surface properties of phenol-degrading bacteria

Article Abstract:

The effects of Direct Electric Current DC on cell surface properties of phenol-degrading bacteria as a prelude for combining in situ bioremediation and electrokinetics in a soil environment contaminated with phenol is determined. The results showed a lower current inductation and no significant changes in the surface hydrophobicity and flatten cell shape.

Gamma study of pH, nitrite, and salt inhibition of Aeromonas hydrophila

Article Abstract:

The gamma hypothesis is used to investigate the time of growth of Aeromonas hydrophila challenged with pH, NaN[O.sub.2] and salt combinations. The results have shown that pH, NaN[H.sub.2] and salt have acted independently on the growth of Aeromonas hydrophila.
