Nematodes associated with dieback disease of cranberries.
Hemicycliophora ritteri and Paratrichodorus minor were associated in high numbers with a previously unknown "dieback disease" of cranberry. Chemical treatment with nematicides and fungicides failed to control this disease. There were no correlations (P </= 0.05) among nematode numbers and yields of good or rotten berries, and with disease ratings. Nematodes were apparently not involved in the e...
متن کاملPlant Pathogens as Biocontrol Agents in Native Hawaìn Ecosystems
Several examples, some spectacular, are available of successful applications of weed biocontrol approaches with plant pathogenic agents in agricultural and rangeland situations. The overall percentage rate of success of all such programs attempted cannot yet be documented, however. Both the "mycoherbicide" method, in which large quantities of inoculum are directly applied to target plants, and ...
متن کاملCombinations of biocontrol agents for management of plant-parasitic nematodes and soilborne plant-pathogenic fungi.
Numerous microbes are antagonistic to plant-parasitic nematodes and soilborne plant-pathogenic fungi, but few of these organisms are commercially available for management of these pathogens. Inconsistent performance of applied biocontrol agents has proven to be a primary obstacle to the development of successful commercial products. One of the strategies for overcoming inconsistent performance ...
متن کاملComments on the use of biocontrol agents against plant- parasitic nematodes
Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN) undoubtedly represent a serious threat to the world economy. Growing dissatisfaction with chemical nematicides due to environmental issues obstructing the use of traditional chemicals has created re-directions in the type and choice of applicable nematicides. The role of different beneficial microorganisms ranks high as environmentally friendly biological alterna...
متن کاملNative Killer Yeasts as Biocontrol Agents of Postharvest Fungal Diseases in Lemons
Economic losses caused by postharvest diseases represent one of the main problems of the citrus industry worldwide. The major diseases affecting citrus are the "green mold" and "blue mold", caused by Penicillium digitatum and P. italicum, respectively. To control them, synthetic fungicides are the most commonly used method. However, often the emergence of resistant strains occurs and their use ...
