Summary: The survey conducted in Germany from 2016-2019 evaluated the effects of management systems, pedo-climatic conditions, and crop rotation history on faba bean root health, diversity of root rot pathogens, and yield. Results showed that there was no significant difference in root rot incidence between organic and conventional fields, but rotational history had an impact on the isolation frequencies of certain species. Pedo-climatic conditions favored the most prevalent Fusarium species identified in the study.

Summary: Treatment of faba bean seeds with 0.001 M Zn solution followed by surface drying can improve biomass production, leaf area, α-amylase activity, soluble sugar, SPAD value, leaf Zn concentration, while reducing leaf malondialdehyde content and total antioxidant activities under drought stress. Adequate Zn supply through seed priming can help in alleviating the adverse effects of drought stress during the early seedling growth stage in faba bean.

Summary: This study investigated the proteomic profile of developing faba bean seeds and found that proteins related to cell growth, division, and metabolism were most abundant in early growth stages, while seed storage proteins began to accumulate from 45 days after pollination. The relative abundance of seed proteins showed distinct temporal accumulation trends among protein classes.

Summary: Increased production of field pea and faba bean in Canada has led to a greater incidence of disease and insect pests, which can ultimately reduce yield. Field trials evaluating various strategies found no consistent impact on disease severity or insect herbivory, indicating a need for further research to develop effective management methods.

Summary: This study highlights the role of salt priming in mitigating salt stress on faba bean. It was found that salt shock resulted in negative effects on growth, photosynthetic pigments, and yield, accompanied by increased generation of H2O2 and lipid peroxidation. However, priming with increasing concentrations of NaCl improved plant defense mechanisms, including enhanced expression of GSH-related genes, proline accumulation, and antioxidant enzymes, thereby reducing the detrimental effects of salt shock on growth and yield.

Summary: The inoculation of multifunctional plant growth-promoting microbes is a simple, economic, and effective way to improve the nodulation and biological nitrogen fixation of legumes. The white-rot fungus Ceriporia lacerata HG2011 was found to release beneficial compounds and nutrients, promote root growth, and improve the availability of phosphorus and iron in the soil, resulting in enhanced nodulation and plant nitrogen fixation. Compared to native rhizobia inoculation, the fungal inoculant showed better performance in increasing nutrient availability, nodule mass, and plant biomass and grain yield.

Summary: The study found that using bio-stabilized municipal solid waste as organic fertilizer can achieve positive results in faba bean cultivation. Compared to mineral fertilizers, both organic and mineral fertilizers showed similar effects in terms of biomass production, plant growth, seed yield, nitrogen and protein content, and pigment content. Additionally, organic fertilizers can improve soil properties and nutrient content, providing a suitable soil environment for faba bean growth.

Summary: With the increased continuous cropping of faba bean, the incidence rate of Fusarium wilt in faba bean is increasing. Nitrogen fertilizer and intercropping of faba bean and wheat can affect the occurrence of the disease. This study explored the effect of nitrogen fertilizer and faba bean-wheat intercropping on the occurrence of Fusarium wilt in faba bean and found changes in exudation patterns contribute to the observed reduction in the occurrence of the disease.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of crop domestication on root functional traits and trait plasticity in response to neighboring plants. The authors found that wild barley had higher root functional traits and acid phosphatase activity, but lower root exudation of carboxylates and mycorrhizal colonization compared to domesticated barley under low P supply. Wild barley exhibited larger plasticity in root traits, while domesticated barley showed greater plasticity in root exudates and mycorrhizal colonization. The combination of wild barley and faba bean showed higher P uptake benefits under low P supply. These findings provide valuable insights for barley breeding and species selection to enhance P uptake.

Summary: The study identified two melanogenic actinobacteria with potent antifungal activity against mulberry root rot pathogens. These isolates demonstrated tolerance to various stresses, including high concentrations of salt and alkali, as well as carbendazim and UVB irradiation. They have the potential to be incorporated into eco-friendly disease management strategies.

Summary: This study evaluated the effectiveness of bioagents, Trichoderma harzianum and plant resistance inducers, as alternatives to fungicides in controlling root rot disease in faba bean. Under greenhouse conditions, the incidence of root rot was significantly reduced by using inorganic salts, antioxidants, and the bio-stimulator T. harzianum, exceeding the fungicide Rhizolex-T. These treatments are considered good and environmentally safe alternatives against root diseases, overcoming the negative effects of fungicides.

Summary: The study evaluated the efficacy of plant extract-based foliar sprays on stem rust infection in wheat. The plant extract treatments showed some degree of disease suppression and were more effective than a commercial fungicide. Carnation extract treatment had the lowest disease prevalence, followed by ginger and cinnamon extract treatments. The reduction in disease severity was associated with increased grain yield.
