the present study examined the effects of mycorrhizal fungus glomus sp. on pistachio growth parameters and root-rot disease of pistachio seedlings under greenhouse conditions. the experiment was conducted in factorial arrangement based on completely randomized design with six replications. examined factors included: levels of glomus inoculation (with (m1) and without inoculation (m0) and two le...

The effect of root exudates from non-mycorrhizal and mycorrhizal cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plants colonized by one of three arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (Gigaspora rosea Nicolson & Schenck, Glomus intraradices Smith & Schenck, or Glomus mosseae (Nicolson & Gerdemann) Gerd. & Trappe) on hyphal growth of Gi. rosea and G. intraradices in axenic culture and on root colonization by G. mosseae in...

four sugar beet genotypes with different reactions to root rot pathogens were evaluated for resistance to important root rot agents including pythium aphanidermatum, phytophthora drechsleri, rhizoctonia solani ag-2-2 and r. solani ag-4. inoculums for pythium and phytophthora were 3-5 day actively growing colony of the pathogens on cma medium, while for rhizoctonia isolates were nine infected co...

Thirteen betelvine cultivars (PB 001 to PB 013) collected from different locations of Bangladesh showed remarkable variations in disease reaction foot and root rot caused by Sclerotium rolfsii. The lowest incubation period 8 days was required for the 005 (BARI line), 006 (Misti pan), 009 Pan-1) 010 (Bangla pan) highest 22 (Laldingi 013 (Gayasur appearance 1st symptoms. incidence ranged 8.33 100...

Metallic silver nanoparticles have been reduced from silver nitrate by employing the extracellular enzymatic machinery of edible White button Mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). The physical properties of these particles, size and shapes have been determined using techniques like TEM, FTIR and XRD and were reported in our earlier report. But, what stands of paramount importance in the presen...
