in order to study the role of pythium species associated with cantaloupe root and crown rot, samples were collected from infected fields in different areas of khorasan razavi province during 2009-2010. the root pieces were washed and cultured on cma-parp medium. the pythium isolates were then purified by hyphal tip method and identified based on van der plaats-niterink mycological key. the path...

چکیده پوسیدگی عمومی طوقه و ریشه گندم در سال های اخیر به عنوان یک بیماری مهم در استان خراسان شمالی جلب توجه نموده است. به منظور شناسایی عامل یا عوامل اصلی قارچی بیماری در سال های زراعی 86- 1385و87 - 1386 نمونه برداری هائی از مزارع گندم آبی مشکوک به بیماری درمناطق شیروان، فاروج، بجنورد، اسفراین و مانه و سملقان در سه مرحله گیاهچه، پنجه زنی تا ساقه رفتن و ظهور سنبله تا سفت شدن دانه به عمل آمد. از ب...

Journal of Plant Registrations, Vol 2, No. 2, May 2008 137 Three F8–derived breeding lines, W6 26740 (RIL 846_34; GP-96, PI 652444), W6 26743 (RIL 846_40; GP-97, PI652445), and W6 26745 (RIL 847_36; GP-98, PI 652446), of green pea (Pisum sativum L.) were selected from a recombinant inbred line population developed by the USDA–ARS in 2000. These lines are unique in combining high levels of resis...

Salinity causes disturbance in symbiotic performance of plants, and increases susceptibility of plants to soil-borne pathogens. Endophytic bacteria are an essential determinant of cross-tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses in plants. The aim of this study was to isolate non-rhizobial endophytic bacteria from the root nodules of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), and to assess their ability to i...

Search for methods of control or eUmination of the cotton root rot fungus (Phymatotrichum omnivorum (Shear) Dug.) in the alkahne soils of the Southwest has already continued for half a century. The literature involved has recently been reviewed by Rea (16)^ and by Streets (17). Nearly all of these discussions have been from the viewpoint of plant pathology or agronomy. Garrett (7) included this...

Several species of Phytophthora cause crown and root rot diseases of herbaceous and woody plants. Crown and root rot of pistachio trees cause significant damages in infected orchards. The effect of foliar application with Elite (fosetyl-Al) in 2 and 2.5 g/l was evaluated in greenhouse experiments. The frequency of mortality, fresh and dry weight of roots and shoots, height, intensity of crown r...

Introduction Dasgupta (2008) showed that fosetyl-Al and BM Phytophthora spp. (P. parasitica, P. nicotianae mixture were effective in controlling this var. parasitica, P. palmivora, P. capsici), are disease. Sengupta et al. (2011) recorded lower perpetual menace to the crop of betelvine, return where biological control agents (BCAs) causing foot rot and leaf rot. The extents of were used for its...

The fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici causes foot and root rot of tomato plants, which can be controlled by the bacteria Pseudomonas fluorescens WCS365 and P. chlororaphis PCL1391. Induced systemic resistance is thought to be involved in biocontrol by P. fluorescens WCS365. The antifungal metabolite phenazine-1-carboxamide (PCN), as well as efficient root colonization, are es...
