Phytophthora nicotianae is a common and destructive pathogen of numerous ornamental, agronomic and horticultural crops such as tomato, tobacco and citrus. Three monobranched C13 alcohol alkoxylate non-ionic surfactants were evaluated for in vitro inhibitory activity against the different asexual structures of P. nicotianae. The same surfactants, labelled MBA1301, MBA1303 and MBA1306, were teste...

A series of fish bioassays using cultures of the toxic dinoflagellate, Pfiesteria piscicida and a cryptoperidiniopsoid dinoflagellate indicated various degrees of toxicity for Pfiesteria piscicida and no toxicity by the cryptoperidiniopsoid. P. piscicida maintained toxicity in the presence of live fish, and this toxicity was perpetuated following a series of inoculations to other culture vessel...
