Rhizoctonia cerealis and solani are considered to be among the most harmful soil-borne pathogens for crop plants globally. The lack of effective protection requirement minimize use chemical pesticides necessitate need develop alternative protective methods. One such method is resistance breeding against biotic abiotic stresses. Here, we present studies on presence traits in winter wheat genotyp...

GOTTLIEB, D., R. J. KNAUS, and S. G. WOOD. 1978. Differences in the Sterol synthesizing pathways of sterol-producing and non-sterol-producing fungi. Phytopathology 68: I 168-1169. The mycelia of several sterol-producing and non-sterolsqualene was detected in the non-sterol-producing fungi. The producing fungi were analyzed for the presence of squalene, block in the synthesis of ergosterol by th...

In order to find new lead compounds with high fungicidal activity, (Z/E)-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienoic acids were synthesized via selective two-step oxidation using the commercially available geraniol/nerol as raw materials. Twenty-eight different (Z/E)-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienamide derivatives were prepared by reactions of (Z/E)-carboxylic acid with various aromatic and aliphatic amines, follo...

The root rot disease complex of Meloidogyne hapla Chitwood, 1949 (Nemata: Meloidogynidae) and Rhizoctonia solani Kühn was investigated in 2021 under controlled conditions with different applications on tomato. Three week-old seedlings (cv. Alberty F1) were inoculated M. and/or R. according to priority the applications. After sixty days, parameters plant height, wet weight, numbers gall egg mass...

Application of biochar, a pyrolyzed biomass from organic sources, to agricultural soils is considered a promising strategy to sustain soil fertility leading to increased plant productivity. It is also known that applications of biochar to soilless potting substrates and to soil increases resistance of plants against diseases, but also bear the potential to have inconsistent and contradictory re...
