This study was performed in order to determine the distance of isolation for the seed potato production from ware potato in three regions of Ardabil, Namin and Nir. The experiment was carried out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with five distances (100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 meters from ware potato) and three replications with Super Elite (SE) class of Agria potato cultivar from wa...

this study was conducted for evaluating the combined effect of soil moisture, phosphorus (p) and zinc (zn) levels on the growth attributes of potato (solanum tuberosum l. cv. agria). this investigation was arranged as a factorial experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with zn at three levels (0, 10 and 20mg zn per kg dry soil as zinc sulfate), p at three levels (0, 30 and 60mg pe...

• This pathogen has quarantine status in Europe • Washing and/or processing of potatoes from affected areas could contaminate GB watercourses • A new automated molecular diagnostic test means the pathogen can now be reliably detected in industrial potato washings and sewage effluents • As such, effluents from industrial potato washing can be monitored before release into the environment • The t...

in order to study the weed populations in wheat, under different crop rotations an experiment was carried out at agricultural research station of jolgeh rokh, iran. during growing season this project was done in five years, based on randomized complete bloch design with three replications, on crop rotations included: wheat monoculture for the whole period (wwwww), wheat- wheat- wheat- canola- w...

Defense against pests and pathogens is a fundamental process controlled by similar molecular mechanisms in all flowering plants. Using Arabidopsis thaliana as a model, steps of the signal transduction pathways that link pathogen recognition to defense activation have been identified and corresponding genes have been characterized. Defense signaling (DS) genes are functional candidates for contr...

Pectobacterium wasabiae, originally causing soft rot disease in horseradish in Japan, was recently found to cause blackleg-like symptoms on potato in the United States, Canada, and Europe. A draft genome sequence of a Canadian potato isolate of P. wasabiae CFIA1002 will enhance the characterization of its pathogenicity and host specificity features.

The aim of this work was to evaluate the effect essential oils Syzygium aromaticum, Cymbopogon citratus, Eucalyptus citriodora and Rosmarinus officinalis on mycelial development fungus Colletotrichum sp. in fragments Feijoa sellowiana fruits. were incorporated PDA (Potato-Dextrose-Agar) medium concentrations 250, 500 1000 ppm, 0 ppm (PDA only) (negative control), fungicide fluazinam 1% (positiv...

To understand the phytotoxic effects that certain bezimidazole fungicides exert on plant growth, the aim of the present study was to determine the effect of the fungicide carbendazim, on foliar biomass, pigment content, and nutrient levels in tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Tennessee 86). The fungicide applied was carbendazim with a purity of 100%, at three different rates: 1.3 mM (car...
