Control of Fusarium Oxysporum Causing Fusarium Wilt by Trichoderma Spp and Pseudomonas fluorescens on Arachis hypogaea L

Fusarium wilt diseases caused by the fungus Fusarium oxysporum lead to significant yield losses of crops. Biocontrol agents such asTrichoderma viride , Trichoderma harzianum and Pseudomonas fluorescens are applied to control Fusarium wilt of Arachis hypogaea. Experiments were conducted on the effect of culture filtrates of T.viride (1%), T.harzianum (1.5%), and P. fluorescens (2%) on biochemica...

A Wilt Disease Op Alfalfa Caused by Fusarium

As stated in the above-mentioned paper (pi), several writers have reported a root rot or wilt of alfalfa with which a species of Fusarium has been associated. Cottam (3) states that the pathogenicity of a root disease of alfalfa in Utah has been traced to the activity of a Fusarium. He describes this disease as being characterized by brown cankerous depressions at the bases of lateral roots, wh...
