Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi: Biocontrol against Fusarium Wilt of Chickpea

The present study shows the status of mycorrhization in three test varieties of chickpea. As the results revealed irrespective to the crops when arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) were assessed under the influence of soil quality better results were obtained with unsterile soil in comparison to sterile soil. Chickpea variety ICC 11322 showed the best result against the Fusarium wilt and chickpe...

Seed Treatments Induced Systemic Resistance in Chickpea against Fusarium Wilt in Wilt Sick Field

Induced systemic resistance in chickpea against wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysorum f. sp. ciceri (FOC) was studied by treating the seeds with benzo (1,2,3)-thiadizole-7-carbothioic acid smethyl ester (Bion), salicylic acid (SA) and dipotassium hydrogen phosphate (K2HPO4). Reduction in disease was observed in both type of applications but seed dressing was found more effective than soaking...

A Wilt Disease Op Alfalfa Caused by Fusarium

As stated in the above-mentioned paper (pi), several writers have reported a root rot or wilt of alfalfa with which a species of Fusarium has been associated. Cottam (3) states that the pathogenicity of a root disease of alfalfa in Utah has been traced to the activity of a Fusarium. He describes this disease as being characterized by brown cankerous depressions at the bases of lateral roots, wh...
