rhizomania is the most important disease of sugar beet in iran and some other parts of the world, and plays an essential role in decreasing sugar yield in fields. the best approach to control this disease is to use resistant varieties. tagging the resistance genes in breeding programs, by molecular markers is necessary. in this study, some breeding populations and commercial varieties of sugar ...

Grain mold caused by Fusarium verticillioides is one of the most dangerous food and feed safety challenges in sorghum production. The most efficient solution for reducing the hazards of the disease is breeding resistant varieties. In order to find the resistant sorghum varieties, nine sorghum varieties were evaluated for their reaction to F. verticillioides and fumonisin accumulation in their ...

Adults of Rhyzopertha dominica (F.), the lesser grain borer, were exposed on four varieties of rough rice with Dobie indices of susceptibility of 1.1 to 1.1 (low), and four varieties with Dobie indices of susceptibility of 3.4 to 3.8 (high). The varieties with low and high Dobie indices were classified as resistant and susceptible, respectively, to R. dominica. The purpose of the study was to e...

charcoal rot, caused by macrophomina phaseolina, is one of the most important diseases of sunflower in golestan province. host resistance may be the only feasible method to manage this disease. accordingly, the resistance of 18 varieties of common recommendations for the region in the form of a randomized complete block design (rcbd) against isolates of m. phaseolina was assessed. statistical a...

Asian rust caused by Phakopsora pachirhizi, which is a major constraint to production of soybean, causing 90% yield losses in field. Synthetic fungicides used control this disease are environmentally degrading and have negative impact on the health producers consumers. The use resistant soybean genotypes can be an effective alternative. aim work evaluate tolerance varieties under natural condit...
