This research was to evaluate the effects of culture filtrates pathogenic fungi on seed germination and seedling indices Chrysophyllum albidum (G.Don). The experiment carried out at Mycology Unit, Department Forestry Environment, Rivers State University, Nkpolu-Oroworkwo laid in a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) treatment replicated twenty times mean value separated using Duncan Multiple Ran...

In order to determine the fungi causing kernel rot on chestnut, 150 chestnut kernels were collected from forests of Düzce province. Ninety-eight showed necrosis at various sizes, while rest 52 healthy in appearance. Twelve recovered necrotic kernels, four kernels. The most frequently isolated fungus was Gnomoniopsis smithogilvyi, obtained 24 It also 5 and produced when inoculated intact Besides...

The objective of this study was to investigate the chemical composition and in vitro antifungal activity Mentha × Piperita L. (peppermint) essential oil (EO) against some plant pathogenic fungi (Alternaria alternata, Penicillium expansum, Rhizoctonia solani, Rhizopus stolonifer). Antifungal EO selected conducted using agar diffusion method by adding peppermint concentrations (0, 250, 500, 750, ...

Highly stabilized monodispersed silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized by Rhizopus stolonifer and the antifungal efficacy of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) against Candida sp. were studied. Characterization of biosynthesized nanosilver was made by TEM-EDS and AFM. Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of biosynthesized AgNPs, Amphotericin B, and Fluconazole have been studied on pathogenic...

A mycelial mattress of Rhizopus stolonifer obtained from a liquid static culture was utilized for wound dressing and biomedical use. Following screening of mutants induced by UV radiation, F6, exhibiting delayed sporangium formation was selected because its sporangium maturation exhibited a 5-day delay without significant loss of mycelial weight compared to the wild type. The sporangium-free my...
