Antifungal activity of 2-hydroxy 4,4'6'trimethoxy chalcone individually was tested against spore germination of ten fungi of different genera. Efficacy of the chemical was also tested against conidial germination and other growth parameters of Erysiphe pisi on excised pea leaves. 2-Hydroxy 4,4'6'trimethoxy chalcone inhibited spore germination at all the concentrations. Maximum inhibition was ob...

Lagerstroemia indica is a widely grown ornamental shrub or small tree that has become naturalised and invasive in many tropical subtropical regions of the world. often used to provide shade around parking areas, for median strip plantings along roads, also planted domestic gardens (CABI, 2019). The was introduced 2007 improve landscaping Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Between August October 2020, powder...

1-Corydalmine,an alkaloid isolated from roots of Corydalis chaerophylla inhibited spore germination of some plant pathogenic as well as saprophytic fungi e.g. Alternaria brassicae, A. brassicicola, A. solani, Curvularia lunata, C. maculans, C. sp., C. pallscens, Erysiphe pisi, Fusarium udum, Helminthosporium species,H. penniseti and a Heterosporium species. 1-Corydalmine significantly inhibited...

Eighty yellow mongooses, Cynictis penicillata, from five localities in South Africa were examined for arthropod parasites. Ten ixodid tick species, of which Haemaphysalis zumpti was the most abundant, prevalent and widely distributed, were collected. The mongooses were also infested with two mite species. Echidnophaga gallinacea was the most abundant of the eight flea species collected. It and ...

use of irradiation has long been proved to be effective in inducing new T z n e t i c variability in a quantitative trait. SCOSSIROLI (1954) irradiated D ~ o sophila mlanogaster populations that had ceased to respond to selection for sternopleural bristle. The irradiated populations now responded to further selection: the response to upward selection was remarkably high, while that to downward ...

The alkaloid fuyuziphine was isolated from the whole plant of Fumaria indica. It had inhibitive effect against spore germination of some plant pathogenic fungi (Collectotrichum sp., C. gloeosporioides, C. falcatum, Curvularia maculans, C. lunata, Erysiphe cichoracearum, Helminthosporium pennisetti, Oidium erysiphoides, Ustilago cynodontis, Alternaria chieranthi, A. melongenae, A. brassicicola a...

An allosecurinine alkaloid was assayed against spore germination of some saprophytic and pathogenic fungi e.g., Alternaria alternata, A. solani, A. brassicicola, A. brassicae, Curvularia lunata, C. pallescens, C. maculans, Curvularia species, Colletotrichum species, C. musae, C. gloeosporioides, Erysiphe pisi, Fusarium udum, Helminthosporium echinoclova, H. pennisetti, H. spiciferum, and Hetero...
