abstract temperature is one of the most important environmental factors affecting on physiological characteristics of fungi. in order to wide host range of macrophomina phaseolina (tassi) goildanich, verticillium dahliae kleb. and sclerotinia sclerotiorum (lib.) de bary, become aware from growth rate and productivity of resistant and survival form of these phyto-pathogens in different temperatu...

Macrophomina phaseolina is a soil-borne fungal pathogen that causes the charcoal rot disease in many plant species. This disease causes many problems to the soy industry as no consistently effective control has been found. Using Medicago as a model, we study the molecular interactions between the pathogen and its plant host. A microarray chip was used to measure the changes in the expression le...

some types of faba bean suspected of root pathogens in lorestan provincec, iran were sampled during years 2007 to 2008. after some pathogenicity tests, 121 samples which suffered from root fungus disease and from chromista were totally isolated. the abundance of fungi, fusarium solani, which caused the faba bean root rot was more than that of the other separated types and as well as the farming...

Piriformospora indica, which is an endophytic fungus that grows on various media in the absence of a host, emits plant growth promoting volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Kaefer medium (KF) has been shown to be most suitable for P. indica growth; however, different may differentially affect fungal metabolism turn influence VOC profiles indica. To date, how VOCs emitted from cultured not well ch...

Charcoal rot of sorghum caused by the fungus Macrophomina phaseolina is a root & stalk rot disease of great destructive potential in most sorghum glowing regions. Improved, high yielding cultivars under great management tends to be very susceptible to the disease. M.phaseolina is a common soil borne, non aggressive and plurevourous pathogen that attacks plants. Whose vigor has been reduced by u...

A Basidiomycota endomycorrhizal fungus, Piriformospora indica Verma, colonizes and promotes the growth of canola (Brassica napus L.) other Brassica crops can reduce diseases crops. Clubroot is an important disease caused by obligate, soil-borne pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin. The effect P. on clubroot severity in was assessed replicated room studies. Seed treated with using a proprie...

Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid., a pycnidia-producing fungus, is one of the most important soilborne pathogens, infecting over 500 plant species in more than 100 plant families around the world (1,18). It causes a major disease of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) called charcoal rot (18). Symptoms on soybean include blight of emerging seedlings, wilting, early maturation, and incomplete p...

Liquid and semi-solid culture media are used to maintain and proliferate bacteria, fungi, and Oomycetes for research in microbiology and plant pathology. In this study, a comparison was made between soybean milk medium, also referred to as soymilk, and media traditionally used for culturing soybean pathogens to determine if soymilk medium was an effective medium for growth of Colletotrichum tru...

A potential antagonist, designated strain Bacillus subtilis MBCU5 was previously isolated from vermicompost-amended soils of Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India. Crude allelochemicals from strain MBCU5 displayed strong antifungal activity against Macrophomina phaseolina as well as Rhizoctonia solani. These crude allelochemicals were tentatively identified as iturin, fengycin and surfactin through TLC a...
