During present investigation, bacterial strains were isolated from rhizosphere of healthy and infected fields of maize grown at Yousafwalla, Pakistan. Fourteen isolates were screened for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. Three isolates showed the antimicrobial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Bacillus subtilis. Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumoniae were found t...

in vitro and greenhouse studies were conducted to investigate the possibility of an interaction between two systemic insecticides of: thiodicarb (larvin df 80) and imidacloprid (guacho sw 70), and seedling disease organisms of: rhizoctonia solani, fusarium moniliforme and pythium ultimum. when in vitro concentrations of imidacloprid and thiodicarb were applied, a fungistatic activity occurred. ...

During 1997- 99 one seed samples of each 17 sesame cultivars (totally 17 samples) were collected from 10 localities in Iran. Blotter method and culture media (PDA, PMA, WA, CA, SNA, CLA, CYA, KCLA, WALM, MEA) were used to isolate and identity the mycoflora present on different parts of seeds. Totally, 145 isolates were obtained which included 34 species of 15 genera. The identified fungi were: ...

Although standard conditions are available for testing the susceptibilities of filamentous fungi to antifungal agents by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI; formerly National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards) broth microdilution assay, quality control (QC) MIC limits have not been established for any mold-agent combination. This multicenter (eight-center) study doc...

This study aimed to isolate and identify acidophilic actinobacteria. Acidophilic actinobacteria isolates were had from a paddy field soil in Osmancık placed near Çorum province Turkey. The dilution plate technique on seven selective media with pH 5.5 was used for isolation. 16S rRNA gene PCR amplification of performed. Three different algorithms the phylogenetic analyzes made MEGA 7.0 software....

Each of two horses was dosed by stomach tube with culture material on maize of Fusarium moniliforme MRC 826. One horse developed severe hepatosis and mild oedema of the brain after 6 doses of 2.5 g of culture material/kg body mass/day in 7 days. The second horse, in a similar experiment but at a dosage rate of 1.25 g/kg/day, developed mild hepatosis and moderate oedema of the brain. In both ani...

Infesting Fusarium species isolated from banana fruit samples were identified and quantified by morphological, mycotoxicological and molecular tools. A total of 19 Fusarium isolates were obtained: F. semitectum was most predominant (26%), followed by F. proliferatum (16%), F. circinatum (16%), F. chlamydosporum (10.5%), F. solani (10.5%), F. oxysporum (10.5%) and F. thapsinum (5%). Fumonisin B1...
