Advances in Research on Soil-Borne Diseases of Medicinal Plants and Their Prevention and Control
摘要
Medicinal plants as the core component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) play a pivotal role in promoting the development of China’s TCM industry. The frequent occurrence of soil-borne diseases significantly impacts the high and stable production of these medicinal plants. Common soil-borne diseases, such as root rot, seedling blight, and gray mold, can occur in more than ten commonly used medicinal plants, leading to a substantial reduction in yield or even total crop failure. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the types and pathogenic mechanisms of common soil-borne diseases during the cultivation of medicinal plants. It discusses chemical, biological, physical, and other control strategies and their current development status for soil-borne diseases. The paper also offers insights into existing challenges in the prevention and control of soil-borne diseases in medicinal plants, aiming to inform green prevention and control practices.
