Fungal wilt diseases are among the most destructive pathogens attacking crop plants globally. Host resistance is considered a key for Fusarium wilt management. Some resistant plant varieties have been screened, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here detailed metabolomic analysis was performed of resistant and susceptible tomato varieties in response to Fusarium wilt infection...

background the association between tumor necrosis factor-alpha (tnf-α) (-308 g/a) gene polymorphisms and level of tissue destruction and periodontal disease progression is not proved. objectives the present study investigated the stereological parameters of interdental papilla in chronic periodontitis (cp) patients with tnf-α (-308 g/a) gene polymorphisms. materials and methods sixty gingiva sa...

Meloidogyne incognita, Hoplolaintus galeatus, and North Carolina and Georgia populations of Belonolaimus longicaudatus were introduced singly and in various combinations with Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum on wilt-susceptible 'Rowden' cotton. Of all the nematodes, the combination of the N. C. population of B. longicaudatus with Fusarium promoted greatest wilt development. H. galeatus had...

fusarium wilt of chickpea, caused by fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris, is one of the most important diseases of this plant in iran. in order to control this disease biologically, fluorescent pseudomonas were isolated from the rhizosphere of chickpea plants and enumerated using king’s medium b (kb). antifungal activity of 80 bacterial isolates against fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris was evalu...

Verticillium wilt of cotton is one of the diseases of cotton with extensive occurrence and maximal harming in our country even in the world .Hyper spectrum remote sensing with the fine spectrum information has becoming the efficient method to monitor the Verticillium wilt of cotton. The research was conducted in Xinjiang, the largest cotton plant region of China. The paper used data which was c...

Frankliniella occidentalis is the key vector responsible for the emergence of Tomato spotted wilt virus as a global threat to agriculture. Frankliniella bispinosa is a common thrips in Florida, the Bahamas, and Bermuda, but the role of F. bispinosa in the epidemiology of the virus is not known. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of F. bispinosa to acquire and transmit Tomato...

Soil-borne vascular wilt diseases caused by Verticillium spp. are among the most destructive diseases worldwide in a wide range of plant species. The most effective means of controlling Verticillium wilt diseases is the use of genetic resistance. We have previously reported the identification of four activation-tagged Arabidopsis mutants which showed enhanced resistance to Verticillium wilt. Am...
