Seven seed borne fungi were isolated from sugar beet seeds viz. Alternaria alternata, Helminthosporium sp., Rhizopus stolonifer, Epicoccum sp., Rhizoctonia solani, Phoma betae and Fusarium oxysporium f. sp. betae. The last three fungi were found internal, while the others were external on seed surface. The internal fungi caused root-rot disease to sugar beet plants. Tre11tment of seeds with eac...

Três antraquinonas conhecidas (1,7-diidroxi-3-metil-9,10-antraquinona, 1,6-diidroxi-3-metil9,10-antraquinona e 1-hidroxi-3-metil-9,10-antraquinona), uma nova antraquinona (1,7-diidroxi3-hidroximetil-9,10-antraquinona), e dois novos derivados hexaidroantraquinônicos, dendrióis E e F, foram isolados da cultura do fungo endofítico Phoma sorghina, associado a Tithonia diversifolia (Asteraceae).

The paper concerns the fungus Phoma complanata, isolated for the first time in Poland, from the roots and umbels of angelica (Archangelica officinalis) in 2009. The morphology of fungal isolates was tested on standard culture media. Moreover, the sequence analysis of ITS regions was conducted. Morphological similarity of P. complanata Polish isolates to the reference isolate obtained from CBS c...
