The paper develops a bioassay-guided genome mining approach to identify antifungal natural products from pseudomonads that antagonize Zymoseptoria tritici.

This study shows that Trichoderma hamatum GD12 uses volatile organic compounds to inhibit the pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, with a mutant lacking the enzyme N-acetyl-β-glucosaminidase showing reduced antagonism.

This study investigates antixenosis in aphid-resistant wheat by testing volatile organic compound responses in aphids.

The paper shows that chemical cues from beetle larvae enhance bacterial growth and virulence gene expression in a plant pathogen.
