None (Members of Erysiphales cause powdery mildew diseases on wide host rang and produce whitish primary mycelium on surface of infected parts. Based on microscopic study of one specimen on Jasminum sp., structures of fungus including conidiophores and conidia were observed. Foot cells of conidiophores were cylindrical or curved in basal part, followed by 1-2 shorter cells. Conidia were ellipso...

Over the past decade, scientific studies have increasingly concentrated on effects of global phosphorus (P) scarcity food security. A comprehensive strategy that considers demand reduction and recycling possibilities is needed to address P scarcity. Reduced tillage along with crop residue retention could decrease fixation in soil, improve labile content enhance organic-P (Po) buildup its minera...
