The present investigation was conducted to test the in vitro efficacy of fungicides, botanicals and bio-agents against Alternaria alternata causing leaf blight disease chrysanthemum. Seven fungicides evaluated under in-vitro condition showed that Hexaconazole, Difenconazole Azoxystrobin + at all concentrations viz.,0.1, 0.2 0.3% completely inhibited fungal mycelial growth followed by Tebuconazo...

brown spot disease caused by alternaria alternata (fr.: fr.) keissl is a serious problem forproduction of tangerines and tangerine hybrids in iran. the tangerine pathotype causes brownspot disease on young leaves and immature fruits of limited varieties of mandarins and tangerines(citrus. reticulata blanco). specificity in the interaction between tangerine and the pathogen isdetermined by a hos...

Sensitivity to fungi is a major risk factor for the development of asthma. However, the prevalence of fungal sensitivity in asthma is not completely understood. Nonetheless upward of 80% of asthmatic patients may be sensitized to one or more fungi. Fungal exposure occurs primarily from outdoors sources, but can occur in the indoor environment as well. Assessment of fungal exposure requires a mu...

Tentoxin, a cyclic tetrapeptide produced by several Alternaria species, inhibits the F₁-ATPase activity of chloroplasts, resulting in chlorosis in sensitive plants. In this study, we report two clustered genes, encoding a putative non-ribosome peptide synthetase (NRPS) TES and a cytochrome P450 protein TES1, that are required for tentoxin biosynthesis in Alternaria alternata strain ZJ33, which ...

Rabea E.I., Steurbaut W. (2010): Chemically modified chitosans as antimicrobial agents against some plant pathogenic bacteria and fungi. Plant Protect. Sci., 46: 149–158. The antimicrobial activity of eight chemically modified chitosans against plant pathogenic bacteria of crown gall disease agrobacterium tumefaciens and soft mould disease Erwinia carotovora and fungi of early blight disease al...

The tomato pathotype of Alternaria alternata produces host-specific AAL toxin and causes Alternaria stem canker on tomato. A polyketide synthetase (PKS) gene, ALT1, which is involved in AAL toxin biosynthesis, resides on a 1.0-Mb conditionally dispensable chromosome (CDC) found only in the pathogenic and AAL toxin-producing strains. Genomic sequences of ALT1 and another PKS gene, both of which ...
