Four phenotypically similar bacterial strains isolated from fungal, plant, and human sources were identified as Azospirillum species. Strains RC1 and LOD4 were isolated from the mycelium of the apple root pathogen Rhizoctonia solani AG 5 and from the rhizosphere of wheat grown in apple orchard soil, respectively. Strains C610 and F4626 isolated from human wounds were previously misclassified as...

ABSTRACT Soil fumigation with methyl bromide plus chloropicrin is used as a preplant treatment to control a broad range of pathogens in high-value annual crop production systems. In California, fumigation is used on approximately 10,125 ha of strawberry production to control pathogens ranging from Verticillium dahliae to root pruning pathogens such as Pythium, Rhizoctonia, or Cylindrocarpon spp...

Sheath blight disease (ShB), caused by the fungus Rhizoctonia solani Kühn, is one of the most destructive diseases of rice (Oryza sativa L.), causing substantial yield loss in rice. In the present study, a novel rice chitinase gene, LOC_Os11g47510 was cloned from QTL region of R. solani tolerant rice line Tetep and used for functional validation by genetic transformation of ShB susceptible japo...

Rhizoctonia solani causes economically important root and hypocotyl diseases in common bean throughout the world. Root health is a vital factor in plant development and root diseases would negatively influence water and nutrient uptake as well as cause direct stand reduction and root rot damage to the crop. An efficient common bean screening method to evaluate damping-off and early root/ hypoco...

Lettuce belongs to the most commonly raw eaten food worldwide and its microbiome plays an important role for both human and plant health. Yet, little is known about the impact of potentially occurring pathogens and beneficial inoculants of the indigenous microorganisms associated with lettuce. To address this question we studied the impact of the phytopathogenic fungus Rhizoctonia solani and th...

The authors carried out a scientific study from 1990 to 2022 on 20 varieties of potatoes the pathogenesis Rhizoctonia in crop production conditions and substantiate methods system protection against disease. fungus R. Solani persists annually soil seed tubers form mycelium sclerotia. It was found that more than 60% grounds potato agroecosystems have content causative agent is many times higher ...

Rhizoctonia cerealis and solani are considered to be among the most harmful soil-borne pathogens for crop plants globally. The lack of effective protection requirement minimize use chemical pesticides necessitate need develop alternative protective methods. One such method is resistance breeding against biotic abiotic stresses. Here, we present studies on presence traits in winter wheat genotyp...

rhizoctonia disease of potato is one of the main causes of yield loss in this crop world- wide. in order to survey the importance of causal agent spread by seed tubers, 36 isolates of rhizoctonia solani were obtained from stored seed tubers and infected subterranean potato plant in the main potato production areas of hamedan and kurdistan provinces in the west of iran. the examination of anasto...

The soil fungus Rhizoctonia solani is a pathogen of agricultural crops. Here, we report on the 51,705,945 bp draft consensus genome sequence of R. solani strain Rhs1AP. A comprehensive understanding of the heterokaryotic genome complexity and organization of R. solani may provide insight into the plant disease ecology and adaptive behavior of the fungus.

Pseudomonas sp. strain 2-92, isolated from a Canadian field plot under long-term mineral fertilization, strongly inhibits the growth of Fusarium graminearum, Rhizoctonia solani, and Gaeumannomyces graminis. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Pseudomonas sp. strain 2-92.
