O cultivo da alface tem sido prejudicado por problemas fitossanitários, em especialmente o gênero Meloidogynes sp.. Na tentativa de minimizar prejuízos, busca-se práticas que sejam eficientes, baixo custo, e com reduzido impacto ambiental, tais como a utilização controle biológico. Objetivou-se avaliar potencial nematicida agentes biológicos infestação Meloidogyne para duas cultivares crespa. U...

Trichoderma gamsii T6085 is a promising beneficial isolate whose effects consist of growth inhibition of the main agents causing Fusarium head blight, reduction of mycotoxin accumulation, competition for wheat debris, and reduction of the disease in both the lab and the field. Here, we present the first genome assembly of a T. gamsii isolate, providing a useful platform for the scientific commu...

The use of Trichoderma isolates with efficient antagonistic activity represents a potentially effective and alternative disease management strategy to replace health hazardous chemical control. In this context, twenty isolates were obtained from tomato rhizosphere and evaluated by their antagonistic activity against four fungal pathogens (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici, Alternaria altern...

Trichoderma viride QM9123 fermented fiber isolated from feedlot waste at concentrations up to 16.7% solids. The fermented fiber solids decreased by 32%, and carbohydrate decreased by 60%. Cellulotyic enzyme production was better with fiber substrates that had been alkali pretreated and had a lower hemicellulose-to-cellulose ratio.

Root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid and White) is one of the most destructive plant parasitic nematode species in almost all agriculture horticulture crops Sri Lanka. Biologically sound controlling measures against this has been attempted from long past with ambiguous efficacy. This paper highlights nemato-toxic potential crude leaf extract Annona glabra, extracellular metabolites...
