Isolates of Agaricus bisporus strains F56 and U3 were tested for sensitivity to several selected fungicides in vitro. The analysis showed that flusilasole + carbendazim and cyproconazole + carbendazim were the most toxic fungicides to A. bisporus strain F56 with respective EC50 values of 0.04 and 0.23 mg/l. The least toxic fungicides were carbendazim (EC50 = 16.58 mg/l) and trifloxystrobin (EC5...

In 2009-2010, unusual symptoms were observed on Pleurotus eryngii grown in mushroom farms in Gyeongnam Province, Republic of Korea. One of the main symptoms was a cobweb-like growth of fungal mycelia over the surface of the mushroom. The colonies on the surface rapidly overwhelmed the mushrooms and developed several spores within 3-4 days. The colonized surface turned pale brown or yellow. The ...

according to the global water shortage problem, the exploring for reducing its harmful effects is very important. this experiment was conducted as split plots method based on randomized complete block design with three replicates in urmia university research field during growing season of 2013-14. water deficit stress as main plot consisted of three levels (irrigation when soil moisture reached...

Fungicides viz., Benomyl, TopsinM, Carbendazim and Cuprocaffro were used at different concentrations i.e., 0, 1, 10, 100, 1000 and 10,000 ppm a.i. to evaluate Trichoderma species viz. T. harzianum, T. pseudokoningii, T. longibrachiatum, T. viride for tolerance to fungicides. Topsin-M and Carbendazim were the most effective fungicides that inhibit the growth of Trichoderma species even at low co...

The content and homologue composition of alkylresorcinols were investigated in rye seedlings (Secale cereale L.) treated with benzimidazole fungicides and grown for 5 days under various thermal and light conditions. The fresh and dry biomasses of green and etiolated plants were greatly increased by benomyl and carbendazim at 29 °C. At 22 and 15 °C benomyl had an inhibitory action on growth of r...

In order to investigate the effect of vermicompost and Nano Iron on yield and yield components of maize, a farm experiment was done in a factorial based on completely randomized blocks design with three repetitions in Damavand in 2013. The first factor was vermicompost in two levels included no applying and applying (vermicompost 1kg.m-2) and the second factor was Nano iron fertilizer with four...

Fungicide resistance in dollar spot caused by Sclerotinia homoeocarpa is a common problem on golf courses in North America (Figure 1) (2), and managing fungicide resistance is a complex and controversial topic (1,4). With dollar spot, the question of whether to use the same fungicide until resistance develops or to rotate different chemistries and tank mixtures has not been defi nitively answer...

Two key decisions that need to be taken about a fungicide treatment programme are (i) the number of applications that should be used per crop growing season, and (ii) the dosage that should be used in each application. There are two opposing considerations, with control efficacy improved by a higher number of applications and higher dose, and resistance management improved by a lower number of ...

The present work focuses on the analysis of cell cycle progression of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis yeast cells under different environmental conditions. We optimized a flow cytometric technique for cell cycle profile analysis based on high resolution measurements of nuclear DNA. Exponentially growing cells in poor-defined or rich-complex nutritional environments showed an increased percentage ...
