Sclerotinia rot caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is one of the most serious diseases of oilseed rape. To understand the resistance mechanisms in the Brassica napus to S. sclerotiorum, comparative disease progression, histological and proteomic studies were conducted of two B. napus genotypes (resistant cv. Charlton, susceptible cv. RQ001-02M2). At 72 and 96 h post inoculation (hpi), lesion si...

Fungal pathogens are liable for a wide part of damages in agriculture economy. In the present research a survey was made to study occurrence of Sclerotinia species the causal agent of stem rot in Cauliflower, through agar disc method and dual culture bioassays. The number of apothecia reduced with decrease in temperature and relative humidity. Infection is dependent on long periods of leaf wetn...

Macrophomina phaseolina and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum are two significant fungal pathogens of sunflower. M. causes charcoal rot ashy stem blight in several important crop species. white mold disease which can occur as middle stalk rot, head premature plant death. Due to the wide host range their survival structures, rotation cannot provide sufficient protection against them. In our experiment, w...

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Barry is a soil habitat plant pathogen, able of infecting more than five hundred host spp., all over the world and doing crucial role in reduce yield economically important crops. rot also known as stem rot, incited by S. certical disease chickpea. We done an experiment which, number fungal isolation, purification, identification pathogenicity from infected ma...
