Laboratory and Field Data for Myxobacterial Biocontrol of Wheat Fusarium Crown Rot

A study screening 81 myxobacterial strains for biocontrol potential against Fusarium Crown Rot in wheat. The dataset includes laboratory inhibition rates (82.01-94.84%), greenhouse control efficacies (52.94-88.24%), and field trial results showing yield increases of 13.71-27.82%. The data was authored by Xiaoli Wang and last updated on 2026-04 10.

Use Cases

• Compare biocontrol efficacy of microbial strains based on reported mycelial inhibition rates.
• Model the relationship between biocontrol treatment and crop yield promotion based on field trial results.
• Analyze the performance of biological versus chemical controls using the greenhouse efficacy data.
• Identify candidate myxobacterial strains for further genomic study based on the screening results.

Strengths

• Includes results from multiple experimental stages: laboratory screening, greenhouse trials, and field validation.
• Provides specific quantitative results, including inhibition rates up to 94.84% and yield increases up to 27.82%.
• Directly compares biocontrol efficacy to a standard chemical fungicide (Tebuconazole).

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is small (670.7 KB), indicating limited scope.
