to identify trichoderma isolates for potential biocontrol of crown and root rot inpistachio, 100 samples of soil taken from rhizosphere, fertilizer channels and from soil surfacewere collected from kerman, yazd, khorasane razavi and semnan provinces during 2009-2011. overall, 32 isolates of trichoderma harzianum were obtained mostly from rhizospheresoil using either general or special environme...

root-knot nematodes (meloidogyne spp.) are among the most important groups of plant-parasitic nematodes, causing damage and yield losses to most cultivated plants. the bacterium pseudomonas fluorescens cha0 and the fungus trichoderma harzianum bi were investigated for biological control capability and systemic induction of resistance against the nematode m. javanica under glasshouse conditions....

Endophytic fungi, which live within host plant tissues without causing any visible symptom of infection, are important mutualists that mediate plant-herbivore interactions. Thrips tabaci (Lindeman) is one of the key pests of onion, Allium cepa L., an economically important agricultural crop cultivated worldwide. However, information on endophyte colonization of onions, and their impacts on the ...

An isolate of Trichoderma harzianum capable of lysing mycelia of The wheat bran preparation of T. harzianum increased growth of bean Sclerotium rolfsii and Rhizoctonia solani was isolated from a soil naturally plants in a noninf...

The capability of the bio-control agent Trichoderma harzianum to trigger plant growth and improvement in biomass response was investigated by inoculating roots of medicinal plant (Ocimum sanctum) seedlings with Trichoderma harzianum in pots, under aseptic, green house environmental conditions. Trichoderma harzianum was isolated from ten different agro climatic zones of Karnataka. Biological and...

in order to investigate the effects of cattle manure, benefit fungi of trichoderma species and psudomunas spp. bacteria on seedling emergence parameters, growth and yield of wheat (triticum aestivum l.) a pot experiment was carried out in factorial (23) arrangement based on a randomized complete design with three replications. the treatments were three levels of cattle manure (10, 20 and 30 t.h...

Peanut haulms compost as a carrier of three Trichoderma species (T. harzianum, T. hamatum and T. koningii) exhibited different morphological and chemical characteristics and its ability to control Fusarium wilt of cumin plants caused by Fusarium oxysporum compared with peat/vermiculite. The peanut haulms carrier was able to increase the population size, numbers, viability, survival, microbial b...

abstract in low-input cropping systems, the natural roles of microorganisms in maintaining soil fertility may be more important than conventional system. in order to investigate the effects of plant growth promoting fungi on improvement of growth and development in soybean (cv: jk) an experiment was conducted at the research farm of sari agricultural sciences and natural resources university du...
