biological control of sugar beet damping-off of rhizoctonia solani ag-4 by two native streptomyces isolates (s2 and c) was evaluated in green house and field conditions. in dual culture, two streptomyces isolates inhibited mycelial growth of r. solani ag-4. besides, volatile components of s2 and c inhibited r. solani mycelial growth for 72 and 74 percentages, respectively. soil treatment either...

Evaluation of Rhizoctonia zeae as a potential biological control option for fungal root diseases of sugar beet" (2015). Abstract Several common root diseases routinely damage sugar beet in Nebraska and other production areas of the Central High Plains, and it is becoming more common to find fields infested simultaneously with multiple pathogens. Owing to the shortage of available fungicides for...

Three acyl derivatives of chitosan (CS) with different side chains were synthesized and their structures were characterized. Their swelling behavior was investigated. The antifungal behavior of these chitosan derivatives was investigated in vitro on the mycelial growth, sporulation and germination of conidia or sclerotia of the sugar-beet pathogens, Rhizoctonia solani K"uhn (AG2-2) and Scleroti...

Sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) germplasms FC716 through FC719 (Reg. no. GP-143 to GP-146, P1 574627 to P1574630) were developed by the USD A-ARS in cooperation with the Beet Sugar Development Foundation. Each of these germplasms was developed from genetically different and distinctive sources. These lines should provide resistance to root-rotting strains (AG-2-2) of Rhizoctonia solani Kilhn and p...

The fungal species Rhizoctonia solani belongs to the Basidiomycota division and is a ubiquitous soil-borne pathogen. It main agent of damping-off disease in seedlings causes root crown rot sugar beets. Plant pathogens deploy small secreted proteins, called effectors, manipulate plant immunity order infect host. Here, gene (RsCRP1) encoded putative effector cysteine-rich protein was cloned, expr...

in order to find the plant extracts with antifungal activity, 18 plant species were screened. in this study, distilled water, methanol, chloroform, aceton and ethanol were employed to obtain crude extract from plant samples. the extracts were tested against sugar beet root rot agents, rhizoctonia solani and phytophthora drechsleri. the inhibitory effect of different extracts was investigated by...

Rhizoctonia solani AG-2-2 is the causal agent of Rhizoctonia root and crown rot in sugar beet; however, recent increases in disease incidence and severity were grounds to reevaluate this pathosystem. To assess the capacity at which other anastomosis groups (AGs) are able to infect sugar beet, 15 AGs and intraspecific groups (ISGs) were tested for pathogenicity on resistant ('FC708 CMS') and sus...
