Rice Sheath Blight

Rice sheath blight (ShB), caused by the fungus Rhizoctonia solani Kühn (sexual state: Thanatephorus cucumeris), is one of the three major rice diseases, leading to significant yield losses. The pathogen is soil-borne and capable of infecting a wide range of crops. R. solani consists of 14 anastomosis groups (AGs), designated AG1–AG13 and AGB1, with compatible strains forming genetically diverse fused mycelial networks.

    Solavetivone 54878-25-0
    Solavetivone is a Sesquiterpenoid phytoalexin and Antifungal agent. Solavetivone is isolated from stress-challenged potato plants. Solavetivone is hydroxylated by sesquiterpenoid phytoalexin hydroxylase (SPH/CYP76A2L). Solavetivone helps solanaceous plants defend against pathogens, damages plant cells after pathogen threat, and inhibits mycelial growth of Rhizoctonia solani. Solavetivone is applicable to studies related to Rhizoctonia solani infection.
