Soil bacteria can benefit from co-occurring soil fungi in respect of the acquisition of carbonaceous nutrients released by fungal hyphae and the access to novel territories in soil. Here, we investigated the capacity of the mycosphere-isolated bacterium Burkholderia terrae BS001 to comigrate through soil along with hyphae of the soil fungi Trichoderma asperellum, Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium ox...

Pathogenicity and anastomosis groups of seven Rhizoctonia-like isolates obtained from infected pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) seedlings were determined, in the central district Siirt province at Southeast Anatolia Region Turkey. Browning on crown root collected saplings drying plants observed. In pathogenicity test, most virulent isolate was Rs2 with a disease severity 93.75%. The group this isol...

Metallic silver nanoparticles have been reduced from silver nitrate by employing the extracellular enzymatic machinery of edible White button Mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). The physical properties of these particles, size and shapes have been determined using techniques like TEM, FTIR and XRD and were reported in our earlier report. But, what stands of paramount importance in the presen...

abstract sclerogenic fungal pathogens, are among the most important diseases of rice plant. sheath blight caused by rhizoctonia solani is one of the economically important diseases that attack a wide range of hosts. stem rot (magnaporthe salvinii) has also been found with different severity in most fields of guilan province. to determine sclerogenic fungal pathogens of rice plant, 141 isolates ...

Goal. Assess potato varieties and hybrids for resistance against rhizoctonia disease identify highly resistant varieties.
 Methods. The fundamental principle of the existing methodology evaluating is to test varieties, species potatoes on natural or artificial infectious backgrounds using a pure culture fungus Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn. grown in Petri dishes was introduced when tubers were p...
