The utilization of compost vineyard wastes as suppressive growing media against Fusarium wilt is a good alternative for the disposal and recycling of these organic wastes. Inoculation of biological control agents (BCAs) enhances the biocontrol activity of compost. In this experiment, vineyard compost was sampled at different stages during the composting process, rating the values of acceptabili...

macrophomina phaseolina is one of the major yield limiting factors of melons in tropical and subtropical regions. for eco-friendly and effective management of the disease, 24 gamma induced mutants from trichoderma harzianum were evaluated against three isolates of the pathogen representing three geographically different regions viz. khorasan (isolate 1), garmsar (isolate 2) and khuzestan (isola...

Pot experiment was conducted to find out the competence of some commercial product Trichoderma spp. on management root knot nematode in tomato crop. The RCBD having seven treatments six different including one control three replications. Each treatment had five pots. Twenty days old seedling Shrijana hybrid transplanted and inoculated with 1500 eggs Meloidogyne soil after transplanting seedling...

Twelve isolates of Trichoderma (six of T. harzianum, five of T. viride, one of T. virens), which reduced variably the incidence of collar rot disease caused in peanut by Aspergillus niger Van Tieghem, were evaluated for their potential to produce lytic enzymes during in vitro antagonism. T. viride 60 inhibited highest (86.2%) growth of test fungus followed by T. harzianum 2J (80.4%) at 6 days a...

In this study, dual culture, poison agar, and direct methods were used to assess the ability of Trichoderma virens IMI-392430, T. pseudokoningii IMI-392431, T. harzianum IMI-392432, T. harzianum IMI-392433, and T. harzianum IMI-392434 to control Ceratocystis paradoxa, which causes the pineapple disease of sugarcane. The highest percentage inhibition of radial growth (PIRG) values were observed ...

S: Fusarium solani and Rhizoctonia solani are the common causal pathogens causes the damping off disease of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in Egypt. The antagonistic effect of four Trichoderma species, i.e. Trichoderma album, Triechoderma hamatum, Trichoderma harzianum and Trichoderma viride, was tested against F. solani and R. solani in vitro, in greenhouse and in field. In vitro tests, all Tri...

Abstract Background Apple decline diseases, responsible for seedlings root and collar rot in nurseries, are an important disease. Different fungal bacterial antagonists were evaluated to control Pythium ultimum associated with this serious disease using vitro vivo greenhouse assays. Results The test of ten Aspergillus spp. Trichoderma harzianum isolates showed their efficacy reduce the radial g...

Alternaria leaf spot disease is a major threat to sesame (Sesamum orientale L.) caused by Alternari asesami. Induced resistance is an alternative to systemic disease resistance response of plants. The present study aims to evaluate Trichoderma species efficacy as biocontrol via induction of resistance against A. sesami in sesame species. During in vitro bio control test, T. harzianum colonize a...
