abstract a total of 270 bacillus strains were isolated from bulk soil and rhizospheric of cucumber in the tonekabon fields (mazandaran province). antifungal activity of bacillus strains was evaluated against pythium aphanidermatum and p. ultimum using dual culture method. 13 strains with more than 10 mm inhibition zone were selected for further study. morphological, physiological, biochemical a...

abstract pythium aphanidermatum is one of the most important agent of root and foot rot of cucumber, particularly in the warm humid climate. induction of host resistance by microorganisms or by the synthetic compounds is recently considered as one of the biological control method of disease. trichoderma harzianum bi is a good candidate for induction of resistance in plant against diseases. the ...

abstract the root and foot rot of wheat is one of the important disease of wheat over the world. the root and foot rot of wheat observed more frequently in the resent years at khorasan province (northeast of iran). for investigation the causal agents, several samples were collected from wheat fields of north khorasan in 2007 and 2008. culture of diseased parts of plants on pda resulted. fusariu...

for determination the host range of fusarium stem and root rot of green-house cucumber (cucumis sativus) that caused by fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-cucumerinum, after isolation, identification and study of pathogenisity, 16 species of several plant families were artificially inoculated with this pathogen by sand and corn meal contaminated with pathogen, two varieties of cucumis melo, of c...

In vitro studies with Trichoderma spp., soil-borne fungal antagonists, demonstrated that a number of isolates produced volatile and non-volatile metabolites capable of inhibiting the growth and sporulation of several soil-borne plant pathogenic fungi. Microscopic observations showed that T. harzianm and T. viride, isolated from soil samples from Ahwaz and Karaj, adversely affected the myce...

VATCHEV, T. D., 2015. Fusarium root and stem rot of greenhouse cucumber: aerial distribution of inoculum. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 21: 650–654 Fusarium root and stem rot is one of the most damaging diseases of greenhouse cucumber. This study reveals development and spread of airborne inoculum of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-cucumerinum the causal agent of the disease. Infective propagules of ...

to identify the fungi associated with foot and root rot of wheat in the khuzestan province, diseased samples were collected at all growth stages in three growing seasons of 2004-2007. pieces of infected parts of the root and foot were surface sterilized and cultured on acidic and non acidic pda media. one hundred and fifteen isolates were obtained and on the basis of macroscopic and microscopic...
