VERTICILLIUM WILT INFECTION IN CERCIS CANADENSIS.

Spatial Pattern of Verticillium Wilt in Commercial Mint Fields

Desirable Traits of a Good Biocontrol Agent against Verticillium Wilt

The soil-borne fungus Verticillium causes serious vascular disease in a wide variety of annual crops and woody perennials. Verticillium wilt is notoriously difficult to control by conventional methods, so there is great potential for biocontrol to manage this disease. In this study we aimed to review the research about Verticillium biocontrol to get a better understanding of characteristics tha...

Genetic dissection of Verticillium wilt resistance mediated by tomato Ve1.

Vascular wilt diseases caused by soil-borne pathogens are among the most devastating plant diseases worldwide. The Verticillium genus includes vascular wilt pathogens with a wide host range. Although V. longisporum infects various hosts belonging to the Cruciferaceae, V. dahliae and V. albo-atrum cause vascular wilt diseases in over 200 dicotyledonous species, including economically important c...

Complete mitochondrial genome of the Verticillium-wilt causing plant pathogen Verticillium nonalfalfae

Verticillium nonalfalfae is a fungal plant pathogen that causes wilt disease by colonizing the vascular tissues of host plants. The disease induced by hop isolates of V. nonalfalfae manifests in two different forms, ranging from mild symptoms to complete plant dieback, caused by mild and lethal pathotypes, respectively. Pathogenicity variations between the causal strains have been attributed to...

Fungicide Screening for Control of Verticillium Wilt of Peppermint

The ability of selected modern fungicides and other products to reduce Verticillium dahliae growth and disease development was tested. In the laboratory, the fungicides Quadris (active ingredient: azoxystrobin), Benlate (a.i.: benomyl), Vanguard (a.i.: cyprodinil), and Folicur (a.i.: tebuconazole) were added to an agar medium in different concentrations and the growth of V. dahliae was measured...
