This study was carried out to determine the anastomosis groups and disease severity of Rhizoctonia solani, which causes root collar rot in chickpea production areas Konya. A total eleven isolates spp. were obtained isolations made from plants surveys. examined microscopically grouped as multinucleate, binucleate according number nuclei. Ten multinucleate identified R. while one isolate sp. In p...

A Myceliophthora thermophila laccase and a Rhizoctonia solani laccase were mutated on a pentapeptide segment believed to be near the type-1 Cu site. The mutation L513F in Myceliophthora laccase and the mutation L470F in Rhizoctonia laccase took place at a position corresponding to the type-1 Cu axial methionine (M517) ligand in Zucchini ascorbate oxidase. The triple mutations V509L,S510E,G511A ...

Trichoderma is a fungal genus that includes species that are currently being used as biological control agents and/or as biofertilizers. In addition to the direct application of Trichoderma spp. as biocontrol agents in plant protection, recent studies have focused on the beneficial responses exerted on plants, stimulating the growth, activating the defenses, and/or improving nutrient uptake. Th...

Ginseng damping-off, caused by the fungal pathogens Rhizoctonia solani and Pythium sp., is a critical disease in ginseng seedling. In a continuing effort to find microorganisms with the potential of acting as a biocontrol agent against Rhizoctonia damping-off, we found that a Streptomyces sp. A501 showed significant antifungal activity against Rhizoctonia solani. In field experiment to test the...

Rhizoctonia solani anastomosis group AG2-2 IIIB is a severe sugar beet and maize pathogen. It causes crown and root rot disease which le ads to y ield losses world-wide. The soil-borne pathogen is d ifficult to detec t and quantify by conventional methods. We developed a real-time PCR (qPCR) assay for the quantification of genomic DNA of Rhizoctonia solani AG2-2 IIIB based on the ITS region of ...

to identify the fungi associated with foot and root rot of wheat in the khuzestan province, diseased samples were collected at all growth stages in three growing seasons of 2004-2007. pieces of infected parts of the root and foot were surface sterilized and cultured on acidic and non acidic pda media. one hundred and fifteen isolates were obtained and on the basis of macroscopic and microscopic...

the effects of bio-priming with different isolates of biological agent of trichoderma spp. and pseudomonas fluorescens on morphological and physiological characteristics of a bean cultivar (yaas) as well as their effects on controlling of rhizoctonia solani were investigated in two separate experiments. in the first experiment, different isolates of trichoderma including trichoderma harzianum b...

The antifungal effect of 10 plant extracts viz., Thevetia peruviana, Ocimum basilicum, Piper betel, Murraya koenigii, Chrysanthemum coronarium, Polyalthia longifolia, Catharanthus roseus, Pelargonium graveolens, Moringa officinalis and Lawsonia inermis were evaluated by poisoned food technique against Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn, the causal organism of sore shin disease of tobacco. Among all the pl...
