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: ...

Abstract Gray mold is a destructive disease caused by Botrytis cinerea , pervasive plant pathogen, which poses threat to both tomato growth and postharvest storage. The utilization of induced resistance presents potential strategy for combating pathogenic attacks. ZNC (zhinengcong), an extract derived from the endophytic fungus Paecilomyces variotii has been discovered play vital role in preven...

die-back disease caused by paecilomyces variotti is one of the most destructive diseases of pistachio in iran. in this study, genetic diversity of paecilomyces variotti isolates was investigated with ssr marker, using six primers pairs. sampling was done from pistachio gardens in different geographical zones of kerman province during summer 2013. various fungal isolates were isolated from infec...

During the study on endophytic fungi of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.), 655 fungal isolates were obtained and studied taxonomically. Based on morphological and ITS sequences data, 15 species belonging to 10 genera including Alternaria brassicicola, A. chlamydospora, A. malorum, A. atra, Arthrinium phaeospermum, A. sacchari, Aspergillus nidulans, A. wentii, Beauveria bassiana, Cheatomium elatum, ...

in this study, the genetic diversity among paecilomyces variotti isolaes was investigated. sampling was performed from pistachio garden in seven geographical region of kerman province during 2011-2012. seventy isolates were identified as p. variotii species using morphological criteria. the genetic diversity among 20 selected isolates was assayed by variation at ssr marker bands using 12 pair p...
