Plant disease control via iron starving bacteria progress
Billions in crop losses arise from root diseases as microbes recruit iron. USDA researchers announce a monoclonal antibody to detect siderophores and test in barley roots, aiming to disrupt pathogen iron uptake. Field and greenhouse work with Pseudomonas putida and fluorescens target take all in wheat, with hopes of up to 38 million dollars saved in the Northwest.
