AI critic verdicts
- agroecologist · plausible
“Brassica biofumigation via glucosinolate hydrolysis products (isothiocyanates) suppressing soil-borne fungi is well-established in agroecology and IPM literature; mechanism, direction, and magnitude align.”
- plant-pathologist · plausible
“Brassica residue decomposition releasing isothiocyanates from glucosinolates to suppress soil-borne fungi is well-documented biofumigation science; source quote and mechanism align.”
