The study was conducted for the purpose of knowing effect mycorrhizal fungus on controlling root rot disease caused by pathogenic Rhizoctonia solani, field experiment included four treatments and each treatment had five replicates, were as follows (Control, Mycorrhiza, Rhizoctonia, Rhizoctonia), where percentage infection with (0.00, 0.00, 96.91, 63.58), respectively. while growth indicators st...

Crown and root rot disease was among the major problems in acid lime (Citrus aurantifolia) seedlings grown nursery of Warm Temperate Horticulture Centre, Kirtipur, Nepal. Samples diseased plants were investigated at laboratory Nepal Plant Disease Agro Associates. Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium solani Alternaria citri found associated with samples. On pathogenicity testing R. showed symptoms like ...

In 2014, glasshouse-grown wasabi (Eutrema japonica) grown in a compost based media displayed symptoms of poor growth and wilting. Visual assessment the roots showed that 25% symptomatic plants sampled had raised black lesions on affecting between 5 20% total root area. To isolate causal agent, affected material (approximately mm3) was surface disinfested sodium hypochlorite (2%) for 30 s, rinse...

Rhizoctonia solani and R. oryzae are the principal causal agents of Rhizoctonia root rot in dryland cereal production systems of the Pacific Northwest. To facilitate the identification and quantification of these pathogens in agricultural samples, we developed SYBR Green I-based real-time quantitative-polymerase chain reaction (Q-PCR) assays specific to internal transcribed spacers ITS1 and ITS...

in order to study the effects of planting date and sugar beet cultivars on infection to curly top virus, vector population, damping off, root rot, and sugar yield, an experiment was conducted in mobarakeh region during 1999-2000 in a split plot design. the main factor was three planting dates and sub factor was six sugar beet cultivars: ic1 as a susceptible cultivar to beet curly top, t41r, 723...

Bhut jolokia (Capsicum chinense Jacq.) is one of the world’s hottest chilli entered in the Guinness book of world record (2006). Many pest and diseases ruined Bhut jolokia and among them damping-off disease of seedling as well root and stem rot in young transplants caused by Rhizoctonia solani is one of the important limiting factor in cultivation and production (Ngullie and Daiho, 2013). Even ...
