The study on antagonistic mechanism of biocontrol strains gives the premise and basis for efficient and stable biological control. This study aimes to overcome of biocontrol agent in aspects of complicated and diversified mode of action, short-lasting and unstable efficacy in the production processes. This study elucidated the antagonistic mechanism of Bacillus cereus strain B-02 on Botrytis ci...

Uncinula necator and Botrytis cinerea are the most destructive pathogens of the grapevine in Tunisia and elsewhere. We used two strains of Bacillus subtilis group, B27 and B29 to control powdery mildew and the grey mold disease of the grapevine. Green house experiments showed that B29 and B27 strains of the bacteria efficiently reduced the severity of powdery mildew up to 50% and 60%, respectiv...

Three soft fungicides were evaluated for the control of Botrytis cinerea on kiwifruit in laboratory and field experiments. Four isolates of B. cinerea were tested against two standard fungicides (carbendazim and sulphur) and three products: Mycosin (Schaette) and Mycosan (Schaette), commercially available BIOGRO certified fungicides based on diatomaceous earth, and chitosan (Sigma), derived fro...

One of the fungal pathogens that causes more agriculture damage is Botrytis cinerea. Botrytis is a constant threat to crops because the fungus infects a wide range of host species, both native and cultivated. Furthermore, Botrytis persists on plant debris in and on the soil. Some of the most serious diseases caused by Botrytis include gray mold on vegetables and fruits, such as grapes and straw...

the botrytis cinerea is one of the most important agents of strawberry fruit rot. in order to identify the pathogenicity potential of the isolates on fruits and the antifungal effect of anise essence on this fungus, forty one isolates of b. cinerea was collected from different areas of mazandaran province on strawberry showing symptoms of gray rot on fruits. following the purification of the fu...

Botrytis bunch rot (BBR), caused by the fungus Botrytis cinerea, causes damage to ripening grape clusters throughout the temperate regions of the world where pre-harvest rains occur. Although pure Botrytis infections free of secondary contaminants can sometimes produce the so-called "noble rot" integral to the production of certain prized dessert wines, a far more common result is a disease tha...

Botrytis cinerea (B. cinerea) Pers. Fr. [teleomorph Botryo t in ia fucke l iana (de Bary ) Whetze l ] i s a phytopathogenic fungi responsible for grey mould, which is an important disease in more than 200 species of fruits, vegetables, ornamental crops and affecting a great number of organs[1]. Grey mould, cause important economic losses before and after the harvest[2], worldwide losses from th...

Botrytized wines are produced from grape berries infected by Botrytis cinerea under specific environmental conditions. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of B. cinerea BcDW1, a strain isolated from Sémillon grapes in Napa Valley in 1992 that is used with the intent to induce noble rot for botrytized wine production.

Fungi were isolated from soil samples corresponding to pesticide-contaminated soil (CS) and noncontaminated soil (NCS) in the Annaba vicinity (Algeria) and identified. The number of isolates obtained from CS and NCS were 263 and 288, respectively. The most frequent species (Aspergillus fumigatus, A. niger, A. terreus, Absidia corymbifera, and Rhizopus microsporus var microsporus) were not sensi...
