ABSTRACT
Seed- and soil-borne diseases are important constraints to sustainable crop production under organic farming systems, particularly in arid and semi-arid agro-ecosystems where high temperatures, moisture stress, low soil organic matter, and repeated cultivation can favour pathogen...

ABSTRACT
A large portion of the Earth’s surface is covered by dry and semi-dry regions, where conditions are often challenging. Nevertheless, these regions are rich in microbes that live in close association with plants, supporting their growth and...
