Sorghum (Sorghum bicolour (L.) Moench) is a major staple food crop and the fifth most important cereal in world. However, its production India adversely affected by different biotic abiotic constraints among them sorghum anthracnose caused Colletotrichum Gramin cola one of damaging diseases. It also responsible for economic loss worldwide, especially tropical sub-tropical countries. In present ...

Detached 3-week-old leaves of Agrostis palustris, Lolium perenne, Poa annua, and Poa pratensis were inoculated with conidial suspensions of two isolates of Colletotrichum graminicola obtained from A. palustris. Inoculated leaves were incubated at 23 degrees C under high relative humidity (>95%). The infection process was investigated by light microscopy from 2 to 168 h after inoculation (AI). S...

The total phenol content of four common paddy cultivars Odisha namely Abhisek (R), Manik (MR), Bas-12 (S) and Lalat (HS) were studied under pot culture condition in the net house following CRD design different treatments using biofertilizer Azospirillum. brasilense alone or combinations against rice root-knot nematode Meloidogyne graminicola. objective work was to study quantitative changes phe...

Root-knot nematodes (RKNs), Meloidogyne spp, are found in all temperate and tropical areas, and are among the most damaging plant pathogens worldwide. M. graminincola is an economically important root parasite on upland, lowland and deepwater rice. FMRFamide-like peptides (FLPs) play significant role as neurotransmitters or neuromodulators in the nervous system and proposed as one of the import...

Meloidogyne graminicola merupakan salah satu nematoda parasit penting pada tanaman padi. M. menyebabkan gejala puru akar sehingga pertumbuhan terhambat dan terganggu. Pengendalian sangat dilakukan agar kerusakan padi penyebarannya dapat ditekan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menguji potensi bakteri endofit dalam mengendalikan (NPA) Empat isolat asal padi, yaitu Si33, Si2, Sp24, GH1, kentang G0...

Recent linyphiid collections from Laos as well as some additional specimens from Thailand and West Malaysia are examined. Six species and two genera are described as new to science: Bathyphantes paracymbialis n. sp., Nematogmus asiaticus n. sp., Theoa hamata n. sp.; Asiagone n. gen. is erected for Asiagone signifera n. sp. (type species) and A. perforata n. sp.; Laogone n. gen. is established f...

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a unique class of plant steroid hormones that orchestrate myriad growth and developmental processes. Although BRs have long been known to protect plants from a suite of biotic and abiotic stresses, our understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms is still rudimentary. Aiming to further decipher the molecular logic of BR-modulated immunity, we have examined the...

Photodynamic inactivation (PDI) is an efficient approach for the elimination of a series of microorganisms; however, PDI involving phytopathogenic filamentous fungi is scarce in the literature. In the present study, we have demonstrated the photoinactivating properties of five cationic meso-(1-methyl-4-pyridinio)porphyrins on conidia of the phytopathogen Colletotrichum graminicola. For this pur...
