First Report of Wilt of European hornbeam (Carpinus betulus L.) Caused by Fusarium oxysporum in China

First Report on Fusarium Wilt of Zucchini Caused by Fusarium oxysporum, in Korea

Fusarium wilt of zucchini in Jeonju, Korea, was first noticed in May 2013. Symptoms included wilting of the foliage, drying and withering of older leaves, and stunting of plants. Infected plants eventually died during growth. Based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of the molecular markers (internal transcribed spacer rDNA and translation elongation factor 1α), the fung...

First Report of Potato Stem-End Rot Caused by Fusarium oxysporum in Korea

In this study, we identified the causative agent of stem-end rot in potatoes that were grown in Gangwon alpine areas of Korea in 2013. The disease symptoms included appearance of slightly sunken circular lesion with corky rot on the potato surface at the stem-end portion. The fungal species isolated from the infected potatoes were grown on potato dextrose agar and produced white aerial mycelia ...

Control Approaches against Vascular Wilt Disease of Elaeis guineensis Jacq. Caused by Fusarium oxysporum

Variation in Carpinus Betulus ( Corylaceae ) in Poland

The European hornbeam (Carpinus betulus L.) is a transitional species in the Polish flora, reaching its northeastern range limit just beyond the Polish border (Jalas and Suominen, 1976; Boratyńska, 1993). The species is a telocratic taxon which appeared in Central Europe ~5000 years ago and spread throughout Poland ~4000 years ago (Huntley and Birks, 1983; Środoń, 1993; Ralska-Jasiewiczowa et a...

Control of Fusarium Oxysporum Causing Fusarium Wilt by Trichoderma Spp and Pseudomonas fluorescens on Arachis hypogaea L

Fusarium wilt diseases caused by the fungus Fusarium oxysporum lead to significant yield losses of crops. Biocontrol agents such asTrichoderma viride , Trichoderma harzianum and Pseudomonas fluorescens are applied to control Fusarium wilt of Arachis hypogaea. Experiments were conducted on the effect of culture filtrates of T.viride (1%), T.harzianum (1.5%), and P. fluorescens (2%) on biochemica...
