Monoconidial cultures of 15 isolates of Trichoderma harzianum were characterized on the basis of 82 morphological, physiological, and biochemical features and 99 isoenzyme bands from seven enzyme systems. The results were subjected to numerical analysis which revealed four distinct groups. Representative sequences of the internal transcribed spacer 1 (ITS 1)-ITS 2 region in the ribosomal DNA ge...

Alternaria solani Sorauer (Ellis), a foliar pathogen of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), was considered to be difficult to control, responsible for yield losses of up to 30% (24), until the registration of the first strobilurin fungicide, azoxystrobin (Quadris; Syngenta Crop Protection, Greensboro, NC), in 1999. Strobilurins belong to the group of chemicals classified as Quinone outside inhibitor...

Abstract Background Application of organic amendments could improve soil properties as well controlling soil-borne pathogens. Soil with dry powders six plant species materials, i.e . caraway seeds, fennel garlic gloves, onion bulbs, pomegranate peel and spearmint leaves were separately applied for Fusarium solani Meloidogyne incognita on pea plants in pots. The control is untreated check pots R...

Here we present the genome sequence of Dickeya solani strain RNS 08.23.3.1A (PRI3337), isolated from Solanum tuberosum. Dickeya solani, recently described on potato cultures in Europe, is a proposed new taxon closely related to the Dickeya dianthicola and Dickeya dadantii species.

It is a successful means to control rot disease it leads fundamental effects on the physiology of host, as use in agent hostile Fusarium solani causal Broad bean root .The results this study appeared that have make less tot incidence severity plants increase resistance-Link...

Essential oils from four plants, i.e. geranium, rosa, lemon and mint were tested for their activity in vitro and in vivo against Rhizoctonia solani and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli, the cause of root rot and wilt of beans. In vitro, they were found to have an inhibitory effect against the mycelial growth of R. solani and F. oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli. Complete inhibition in fungal growth w...

While it is not possible to directly the observe evolution of multigene families, the best alternative is to compare orthologous family members among several closely-related species with varying degrees of reproductive isolation. Using RT-PCR we show that in pea (Pisum sativum) each member of the pathogenesis-related PR10 family has a distinct pattern of expression in response to the fungus Fus...

Objective: To investigate the antifungal activity of crude extract of leaves of Tamarix dioica tree. Material and Methods: Antifungal activity of crude extract of T. dioica leaves was studied. The extract was dissolved in Dimethyl Sulfoxide, then six strains of fungi were subjected to crude extract separately by agar tube dilution method. Inhibitory effect of extract in millimeters was determin...
