this study was carried out to identify fusarium species associated with sugar beet root rot and yellows. pathogenicity of fusarium oxysporum, the causal agent of fusariumyellows of sugar beet was also investigated. samples of infected roots were collected from fields in major sugar beet producing areas in khorasan province during 1999-2000. infected roots were washed, surface sterilised and pla...

VATCHEV, T. D., 2015. Fusarium root and stem rot of greenhouse cucumber: aerial distribution of inoculum. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 21: 650–654 Fusarium root and stem rot is one of the most damaging diseases of greenhouse cucumber. This study reveals development and spread of airborne inoculum of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-cucumerinum the causal agent of the disease. Infective propagules of ...

Stem rot disease was found in garlic (Allium sativum L.) cultivated from 2008 to 2010 in the vegetable gardens of some farmers in Geumsan-myon, Jinju City, Gyeongnam province in Korea. The initial symptoms of the disease were typical water-soaked spots, which progressed to rotting, wilting, blighting, and eventually death. White mycelial mats had spread over the lesions near the soil line, and ...

Volatile compounds, physicochemical and sensory attributes of four sweet cherry cultivars (Canada giant, Ferrovia, Lapins and Skeena) grown in Northern Greece were determined. Eighteen volatile compounds were identified and semi-quantified in cherries using solid phase micro extraction in combination with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (SPME-GC/MS). Carbonyl compounds were the most abunda...

in this study, biocontrol effect of some strains pseudomonas fluorescent surveyagainst pythium aphanidermatum the causal agent of cucumber root rot disease. first biocontrol ability of bacteria against the fungal pathogen evaluated by cross-culture method. results showed that inhibition zone of strain t17-4 (7.5 mm) was more than others. seven strains including t17-4, cha0, cha89, vupf52, vupf5...

Fruits of the sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) accumulate a range of antioxidants that can help to prevent cardiovascular disease, inflammation and cancer. We tested the in vitro antioxidant activity of 18 sweet cherry cultivars collected from 12 farms in the protected geographical indication region of Marostica (Vicenza, Italy) during two growing seasons. Multiple targeted and untargeted metabol...

The identity, geographical distribution, and host range of codling moth is reviewed, and the evidence for sweet cherry being a host is critically analysed. A model is described which assesses the risk of codling moth being spread through international trade in sweet cherries, as exempli"ed by exports from, respectively, New Zealand and USA to Japan in winter and summer. The model is based on th...
