abstract sclerotinia sclerotiorum is the causal necrotroph pathogen with wide host range and showed various phenotipic intraspecies variability. considering to difficult identification of intraspecies heterogeneity on the basis of phenotypic factors, compatible mycelium groups introduced as an appropriate tool for classification and intraspecies heterogeneity distinction. in this research, 19 f...

sclerotinia stem rot (white stem rot), an important fungal disease, which is caused by sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is one of the serious diseases of various plants such as canola. use of resistant cultivars is an effective method to control the disease. a greenhouse experiment based on cotyledon inoculation using mycelial suspension of two different isolates of s. sclerotiorum was conducted to ev...

backgoround: plant diseases, caused by a wide range of phytopathogenic fungi, could be managed using of trichoderma sp, as a biocontrol agent. cell wall degrading enzymes like chitinase from t. harzianum are important means for fungal pathogen inhibition. overexpression of these chitinase enzymes can improve the antagonistic potential of trichoderma sp. strains. objectives: this study aimed to ...

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a devastating plant pathogen that attacks numerous economically important broad acre and vegetable crops worldwide. Mycoviruses are widespread viruses that infect fungi, including S. sclerotiorum. As there were no previous reports of the presence of mycoviruses in this pathogen in Australia, studies were undertaken using RNA_Seq analysis to determine the diversity of...
