The imminent removal of agrochemicals in Europe is directly affecting the strawberry sector Spain, specifically Huelva province. currently main producer country. lack efficient fumigants has led to rise soilborne diseases. Macrophomina phaseolina (the causal agent charcoal rot strawberries) generating serious problems with farmers. This work proposes optimize process anaerobic soil disinfestati...

Maize, a vital cereal globally, ranks alongside rice and wheat. Among the significant factors curbing maize yields, post-flowering stalk rot (PFSR) stands as highly destructive ailment. PFSR leads to yield reductions in from 10% 42%, occasionally may reach upto 100% specific regions. This emphasizes potential for elevating India's corn production by developing cultivating PFSR-resistant hybrids...

Background: Lemon verbena (Lippia citriodora H.B.K.) is an aromatic and medicinal plant of family Verbenaceae, which cultivated in the North region of Iran. Objective: This comparative study was carried out on essential oil content and composition of Lippia citriodora H.B.K. from micro-propagated and rooted apical stem cutting plantlets. Methods: The micro-propagated plantlets were obtained ...

Macrophomina phaseolina is a soil-borne fungal pathogen that causes the charcoal rot disease in many plant species. This disease causes many problems to the soy industry as no consistently effective control has been found. Using Medicago as a model, we study the molecular interactions between the pathogen and its plant host. A microarray chip was used to measure the changes in the expression le...

macrophomina phaseolina is an important soil-borne pathogen causing charcoal rot in many important crop plants including sesame, in iran. a total of 60 isolates of m. phaseolina were collected from the main sesame producing regions in ten provinces of iran. the genetic diversity among m. phaseolina populations was estimated using inter-simple sequence repeat (issr), focusing particularly on geo...

An attempt has been made to assess the status of different cane diseases in the South African sugar industry. Factors taken into account are present incidence, potential for further spread,, estimated losses in yield and possibilities for control. It is shown that diseases are causing significant losses in yield but that the major proportion of present losses, that due to ratoon stunting diseas...
