Phytopa thology 86:38-44. cells of TN90 was very restricted compared to a more diffuse amber region on B2IxIO. Hyphae advanced from the necrotic regions into asymptomatic cells on B2IxIO, but hyphae were limited to discolored cells on TN90. Sporulation was prol...

The widespread destruction of commercially grown bulbs of Narcissus tazetta papyraceus (Paper White) has been reported in Israel. This phenomenon is usually characterized by a premature yellowing of the foliage, accompanied by root rot and dark, sunken basal plates. This study confirmed thatAphelenchoides subtenuis is the main cause of the basal plate disease of Narcissus. In contrast to other ...

A study is described which is unique in that resistance to each of the major diseases which affect production in Merino sheep was measured in the same flock under the same environmental conditions. Results indicated that within the one flock, genetic variation exists for resistance to internal parasites, foot-rot, fleece rot and dermatophilosis. Heritability estimates were similar to those publ...

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...

In the study, 58 synthetic wheat lines and 6 bread varieties were used as material. Synthetic investigated for resistance to root rot under field conditions. laboratory conditions, 1 ml (1x106 spores/ml) of collar disease was inoculated into each tube at junction stem plant soil, week after seed sowing. terms rot, which is one important problems in Thrace region, it determined that showed prope...

BACKGROUND Soybean red crown rot is a major soil-borne disease all over the world, which severely affects soybean production. Efficient and sustainable methods are strongly desired to control the soil-borne diseases. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We firstly investigated the disease incidence and index of soybean red crown rot under different phosphorus (P) additions in field and found that the natural i...

Cassava root rot disease has been reported to cause huge losses of fresh yield particularly when harvesting is delayed. The improved yellow-fleshed cassava varieties naturally contain antioxidant whereas widely used control plant diseases in the tropics. experiment was carried out at Federal University Agriculture, Abeokuta, Nigeria 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 cropping seasons investigate: 1) possi...
