Covering soybean leaves with cellulose nanofiber changes leaf surface hydrophobicity and confers resistance against <i>Phakopsora pachyrhizi</i>
2020-08-27
Abstract excerpt
Asian soybean rust (ASR) caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi , an obligate biotrophic fungal pathogen, is the most devastating soybean production disease worldwide. Currently, timely fungicide application is the only means to control ASR in the field. We investigated cellulose nanofiber (CNF) application on ASR disease management. CNF-treated leaves showed reduced lesion number after P. pachyrhizi inoculation compar...
