Seed coating with phages for sustainable plant biocontrol of plant pathogens and influence of the seed coat mucilage
S. Erdrich, U. Schurr, J. Frunzke, B. Arsova
This study demonstrates that phages can bind to seed coat mucilage and enhance plant seedling survival against pathogens, suggesting phage-based biocontrol as a sustainable strategy.
