“…A huge number of fungal pathogens, such as Alternaria, Aspergillus, Bipolaris, Botrytis, Colletotrichum, Fusarium or the Sclerotinia genera, are transmitted when the seeds are sown and emerge. The pathogens limit the germination and the development of both seedlings and plants, such as soybean [91], cereals [92], oilseed rape [93], vegetables [94][95][96] and herbs [97], thus negatively affecting the yield and food safety [98,99].…”

“…Traditionally, in order to control seed-borne pathogens, fungicides have been widely used [44,100]. As shown in numerous studies, the use of cold plasma is an innovative, efficient, and eco-friendly method for reducing pathogens without the use of pesticides, which are harmful to both the environment and consumer [94,101,102].…”

Sustainable agriculture with low inputs of chemicals and fertilizers has been recently attracting more attention from producers and researchers in the EU. The main reason for such attention is The European Green Deal—the EU’s latest growth strategy concerning environmental degradation and climate change. One of its main components is the Farm to Fork strategy, which especially features the reduction in pesticide and mineral fertilizer application and also supports the development of organic farming. At the same time, food demand is rising. These ambitious challenges require extensive research, development and innovation. Therefore, new non-chemical techniques for improving plant growth and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses must be explored for their potential in this field. One of the most promising is the use of non-thermal plasma for such purposes. As this physical factor is a complex mixture of ions, atoms, electrons, radicals and molecules, its effect on plants and pathogens is also complex. This review presents different aspects of the effect of non-thermal plasma on seed germination, development of seedlings, plants and pathogens. The literature was explored to provide evidence for the possible use of non-thermal plasma for boosting plant growth and plant protection.

“…Similar results were confirmed by using plasma-activated water on the inactivation of Penicillium italicum in kumquat [ 54 ]. Ahmad et al [ 55 ] tested two plasma treatments viz plasma-activated water and plasma activated H 2 O 2 solution on the spores and mycelium of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides which causes anthracnose disease in pepper ( Capsicum annuum L.) seeds. They found that both treatments effectively inhibited the spore and mycelium of C. gloeosporioides .…”

Fusarium spp. is a well-studied pathogen with the potential to infect cereals and reduce the yield to maximum if left unchecked. For decades, different control treatments have been tested against different Fusarium spp. and for reducing the mycotoxins they produce and are well documented. Some treatments also involved integrated pest management (IPM) strategies against Fusarium spp. control and mycotoxin degradation produced by them. In this review article, we compiled different control strategies against different Fusarium spp. In addition, special focus is given to the non-thermal plasma (NTP) technique used against Fusarium spp. inactivation. In a separate group, we compiled the literature about the use of NTP in the decontamination of mycotoxins produced by Fusarium spp., and highlighted the possible mechanisms of mycotoxin degradation by NTP. In this review, we concluded that although NTP is an effective treatment, it is a nice area and needs further research. The possibility of a prospective novel IPM strategy against Fusarium spp. is also proposed.

“…Several authors have shown that non-thermal plasmas are able to control seed-transmitted pathogens, such as Aspergillus parasiticus Speare, Penicillium sp. in bean (Rüntzel et al 2019), in addition to pathogens from chickpea, lentil, soybean (Selcuk et al 2008;Pérez-Pizá et al 2018, Taheri et al 2020, Pérez-Pizá et al 2021, peanut (Devi et al 2017), Scots Pine (Swiecimska et al, 2020), onion (Kopacki et al 2017), rice (Jo et al 2014) and pepper (Ahmad et al 2022). Non-thermal plasma, when applied to Fabaceae seeds under low stress, is beneficial for seed germination and seedling growth (Será et al 2021, Yan et al 2022, as the results found by Pérez-Pizá et al (2019) in which it improved the germination of soybean seeds.…”

Seeds pathogens compromise the production of beans. Seed treatment is used to mitigate the pathogens' incidence and damage; however, the forms of control must be efficient and safe. Our main hypothesis is that synthetic chemicals are the most efficient treatment against bean seed pathogens. Thus, we discuss the controls of pathogens in bean seeds using different treatments and identify the technologies studied for these purposes. This review assessed papers that used different strategies to control the bean seed pathogen. There are treatment classifications in which synthetic chemicals are the most efficient to control these pathogens, but as a burden, they pose a risk to human health, animals, and the environment. However, alternative, and complementary solutions to control these microorganisms have been sought in physical, natural, and biological control. Of the studies evaluated, 35.29% used biological control, 17.65% used control with natural agents, 11.76% used physical control, and the others corresponded to 5.88% each. 72.22% are related to the control of fungal pathogens, 16.67% to the control of bacteria, and only 11.11% to the virus. 94.12% were effective, and only 5.88% were not successful in controlling. Overall, our findings expand our knowledge about the alternative treatments that are efficient against pathogens associated with bean seeds which could serve as an alternative tool for plant disease management and seed treatment.
