Nine different Fusarium species were isolated from Acacia koa seeds, seedpods, seedling stem and root tissues, rhizosphere soil and soil surrounding roots of diseased trees. Fusarium oxysporum, the cause of koa dieback and wilt, was not isolated from seeds or seedpods but was found most commonly on roots and soil near diseased koa seedlings. Fusarium subglutinans was the most common species iso...

Two field experiments (Spring, 1974 and 1975) were conducted on Myakka fine sand to determine the effect of lime and nitrogen source on the development of Fusarium wilt of cucumber and watermelon. The same site, with the same experimental design, was used for each experiment. In both experiments, gross yields were increased and wilt development decreased by raising the soil pH with hydrated lim...

The Effectiveness of the Biofungicide Formula in Controlling Fusarium Wilt Disease Chili Plants (Capsicum Annuum L.). oxysporum f.sp. capsici is one pathogenic fungi that causes wilt disease chili plants. This can be suppressed by Gliocladium sp. as a biological agent used an active ingredient biofungicide formulas. use agents ingredients combined with natural carrier to form formula. purpose t...

The efficacy of four fungal bioagents viz., Trichoderma hamatum, Trichoderma harzianum, Trichoderma viride, Gliocladium virens and two bacterial bioagents namely Pseudomonas fluorescens and Bacillus subtilis were evaluated against the chickpea vascular wilt pathogen, Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. ciceri in vitro condition using Dual Culture Technique. Among the fungal bioagents, T. harzianum produce...

This study was initiated to determine the incidence and severity of fungal diseases tomatoes document farmers’ knowledge these their control measures in Offinso North, Techiman North Asante Akim Districts within forest forest-savannah agro-ecological zones Ghana. A survey conducted three selected communities each district tomato also practices adopted on farms using a well-structured questionna...

Fusarium oxysporum is a soil-inhabiting fungus that induces vascular wilt and root rot in a variety of plants. F. oxysporum f. sp. conglutinans (Foc), which comprises two races, can cause wilt disease in cabbage. Compared with race 1 (52557(-TM), R1), race 2 (58385(-TM), R2) exhibits much stronger pathogenicity. Here, we provide the first proteome reference maps for Foc mycelium and conidia and...

Acacia koa seedlings were evaluated from plantings and commercial nurseries for colonization by Fusarium spp., particularly F. oxysporum, the putative cause of koa wilt/dieback disease in Hawaii. We sampled 162 seedlings, 90% of which were from nurseries on the islands of Hawaii, Maui, Kauai, and Oahu. Fusarium oxysporum was detected on about 78% of sampled seedlings. It was most prevalent on r...

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. pisi (Fop) is a pathogen of field pea inducing severe vascular wilt worldwide. Plant resistance to races 1, 5, and 6, producing wilt symptoms, is conferred by a single dominant gene, while resistance to race 2, which gives near-wilt symptoms, have been recently showed to be quantitative. Among the virulence factors reported to play a role in the infection process, toxi...
