Characterization of a Regional Population of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum by Race, Cross Pathogenicity, and Vegetative Compatibility

Race 3, a New and Highly Virulent Race of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum Causing Fusarium Wilt in Watermelon

Local origin of two vegetative compatibility groups of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum in Australia

Pathogenicity and genetic diversity of Fusarium oxysporum from geographically widespread native Gossypium populations, including a cotton growing area believed to be the center of origin of VCG 01111 and VCG 01112 of F. oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum (Fov) in Australia, was determined using glasshouse bioassays and AFLPs. Five lineages (A-E) were identified among 856 isolates. Of these, 12% were ...

genetic relationship among fusarium oxysporum f. sp. melonis vegetative compatibility groups and their relatedness to other f. oxysporum formae speciales

fusarium wilt of melon is a destructive fungal disease throughout the world. in this study, the evolutionary relationships among isolates of different formae speciales of fusarium oxysporum was examined, with a special emphasis on the forma specialis melonis. bootstrapped maximum likelihood analysis of the elongation factor-1α (ef-1α) sequence was conducted on 16 iranian and 11 foreign isolates...

Growth responses of in vitro Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum to external supply of tannic acid.

Allelochemicals released from root exudates or decaying residues of plants play diversified roles in ecological interactions of plant-pathogen. The objective of this work was to evaluate the allelopathic effect of an externally supplied tannic acid on soil-borne in vitro Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum. Results showed that the tannic acid decreased the growth of the fungus up to 9.5% at 800 mg...

Pathogenicity and Diversity of Vegetative Compatibility of Fusarium Verticillioides

Pathogenicity of 10 Fusarium verticillioides isolates, originated from grain of wheat (five isolates) and maize (five isolates), were studied under greenhouse conditions. Based on different parameters of the pathogenicity estimate (a scale for % of nonemerged plants, % of survived plants, plant vigour — the growth and dry weight of roots and epicotyls and disease severity) it was determined tha...
