The resistance phenotypes of nine potato cultivars to five isolates of Alternaria solani, causal agent of early blight, were studied after inoculation and growth under greenhouse conditions. We identified potato cultivars with both susceptible and resistant phenotypes as well as A. solani isolates with varying degrees of aggressiveness. Two potato cultivars and two pathogen isolates were select...

reactions of 20 cucumber cultivars, tested to fusarium stem and root rot disease, have ranged from susceptible to tolerant. the most susceptible cultivars were 8-ayat, 32-pv, cb- 61688222, janette, nasco, negeen, nicoo 100, psr36-47112, rubah-l, rubah-s and sultan and tolerant cultivars were 120118, ayat, jakie, fd-c101, festival, khassib, psr 36-45007, sr36-45664 and storm. between these culti...

Root rot disease of cassava is one the major diseases in Thailand, widespread incidence soil-borne pathogens has been found to affect more than 80%. The research aims investigate effect elicitors as salicylic acid and Bacillus subtilis strain JN2-007 for inducing resistance against root by Fusarium solani cassava. experiment was carried out a susceptible cultivar test efficacy biochemical respo...

Phytophthora species are considered as the major cause of several plant diseases resulting in huge yield losses in agricultural crops. Despite years of effort to develop Phytophthora resistance varieties, there is no reports of a resistant cucumber variety. In this study, the effect of concomitant application of potassium phosphite (KPhi) and chitosan on some physiological and molecular respons...

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...
