Charcoal rot diseases of melon caused by Macrophomina phaseolina is one of the most important diseases of melon occurring in regions with variable climate. Reduction of yield of melon by this disease has been reported up to 100% in some of Garmsar field. Salinity which can cause the important trouble in plant metabolism and nutrition is present in Semnan and Garmsar areas. Melon is susceptible ...

melon and musk melon are grown widely in warm and moderate climate regions of the world as well as iran. these crops are attacked by several fungal pathogens including macrophomina phaseolina which causes charcoal rot disease at different growth stages and reduces the yield remarkably. fungicide application and other control methods have not been successful in control of charcoal rot and utiliz...

trichoderma harzianum (t39), t.virens (dar74290), t.viride (mo), t. harzianum (m) and trichderminb a commercial formulation of t. harzianum(bi) were evaluated as potential biological agents for the control of charcoal stem rot in melon caused by macrophomina phaseolina. cell-free metabolites of t. harzianum(m), t. harzianum (t39) and t. virens (dar 74290) inhibited growth of m. phaseolina compl...

macrophomina phaseolina is one of the major yield limiting factors of melons in tropical and subtropical regions. for eco-friendly and effective management of the disease, 24 gamma induced mutants from trichoderma harzianum were evaluated against three isolates of the pathogen representing three geographically different regions viz. khorasan (isolate 1), garmsar (isolate 2) and khuzestan (isola...

In our earlier investigation, a fungal isolate Penicillium citrinum VFI-51 and its secondary metabolite was reported to have antagonistic potential against Botrytis cinerea, the causative agent of Botrytis gray mold disease in chickpea. In the present investigation, P. citrinum VFI-51 was further evaluated for its antagonistic potential against Macrophomina phaseolina, the causative agent of ch...

Charcoal rot of sorghum causedby the fungus ~acrophorfdna phaseolina is a root andstalk rot disease of great destructive potential in most sorghum-growing regions. Improved, highyielding cultivars under good management tend to be very susceptible to the disease. M. phaseolina is a common soilborne, nonaggressive, and plurivorous pathogen that attacks plants whose vigor has been reduced by unfav...

root rot and vine decline caused by monosporascus cannonballus is a major challenge for melon production world-wide. in recent years, a disease suggested to be related to this pathogen was observed 1-2 weeks prior to harvest in many melon production areas across iran. in this study, melon plants with symptoms of chlorosis, wilting, decline and/or sudden death were collected from melon growing a...

to study of biological control of charcoal rot of melon caused by macrophomina phaseolina, 187 isolates of fluorescens pseudomonas isolated of rhizosphere and soil of melon plants. then 12 isolates belong to i, iii and v biovars of p. fluorescens and b biovar of p. putida were selected for greenhouse experiments based on inhibition amount. pseudomonas isolates inhibited mycelial growth signific...
