Seed health testing by studying the seed-borne fungi of soybean seeds is an important step in the management of the seed-borne diseases. In the present study seed-borne fungi was studied by using agar plate method. A number of seed-borne fungal species was isolated from the agar plate. These seed-borne fungal sps. were Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, A. fumigatus, Chaetomium globosum, Curvularia ...

Essential oils from four plants, i.e. geranium, rosa, lemon and mint were tested for their activity in vitro and in vivo against Rhizoctonia solani and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli, the cause of root rot and wilt of beans. In vitro, they were found to have an inhibitory effect against the mycelial growth of R. solani and F. oxysporum f. sp. phaseoli. Complete inhibition in fungal growth w...

Four experimental trials were carried out at Albenga (Northern Italy) to evaluate the e!ectiveness of reduced dosages of methyl bromide (MB) applied under gas-impermeable "lms in controlling soilborne pathogens of vegetable crops. Forty and thirty g/m2 of MB applied under di!erent types of gas-impermeable "lms controlled Rhizoctonia solani on bean, lettuce and basil, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. b...

some types of faba bean suspected of root pathogens in lorestan provincec, iran were sampled during years 2007 to 2008. after some pathogenicity tests, 121 samples which suffered from root fungus disease and from chromista were totally isolated. the abundance of fungi, fusarium solani, which caused the faba bean root rot was more than that of the other separated types and as well as the farming...

The impact of 10 Fusarium species in concomitant association with Rotylenchulus reniformis on cotton seedling disease was examined under greenhouse conditions. In experiment 1, fungal treatments consisted of Fusarium chlamydosporum, F. equiseti, F. lateritium, F. moniliforme, F. oxysporum, F. oxysporum f.sp. vasinfectum, F. proliferatum, F. semitectum, F. solani, and F. sporotrichioides; Rhizoc...

The antagonistic activity of three bacterial isolates namely Microbacterium terregens, Cellulosimicrobium cellulans and Bacillus amylollquefaciens was evaluated through direct confrontation method and filtrates culture against the growth of Fusarium solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Rhizoctonia solani and Phytophthra cactorum. All bacterial isolates showed the inhibition of the mycelia growth of the ...

Summary Understanding pathogen-agrosystem interaction is particularly essential when applying a control method to minimize pathogen prevalence prior plant infection. To meet this requirement, frequency of major root rot pathogens isolated from bean and seed, their soil populations were examined in farmers’ fields. Multivariate analyses evidenced more frequent isolations Fusarium solani Rhizocto...

In order to discover new compounds with good fungicidal activities, 32 pyrazole derivatives were designed and synthesized. The structures of the target compounds were confirmed by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HR-ESI-MS), and their fungicidal activities against Botrytis cinerea, Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn, Valsa mali Miyabe et Yamada, Thanatephorus...
