ABSTRACT Athelia rolfsii (Curzi) C.C. Tu & Kimbr. is the one of most damaging pathogens cultivated peanut, causing soilborne disease known regionally as white mold, stem rot, or southern blight. Because genetic base for peanut narrow, wild Arachis species may possess novel sources resistance. We evaluated 18 accessions representing 15 (batizocoi, benensis, cardenasii, correntina, cruziana, ...

Naturally occurring disease-suppressive soils have been documented in a variety of cropping systems, and in many instances the biological attributes contributing to suppressiveness have been identified. While these studies have often yielded an understanding of operative mechanisms leading to the suppressive state, significant difficulty has been realized in the transfer of this knowledge into ...

Soil disinfestation with steam has potential to partially replace fumigants such as methyl bromide, chloropicrin, and 1,3-dichloropropene because it is effective, safer apply, less negative impact on the environment. Here, we compared efficacy of + mustard seed meal (MSM) chloropicrin soil disinfection, plant growth, fruit yield in a strawberry ( Fragaria × ananassa ) fruiting field. The MSM wa...

Abstract Background Microbes benefit plants by increasing nutrient availability, producing plant growth hormones, and protecting against pathogens. However, it is largely unknown how change root microbial communities. Results In this study, we used a multi-cycle selection system infection the soilborne fungal pathogen Rhizoctonia solani AG8 (hereafter AG8) to examine impact rhizosphere bacteria...

Abstract Background The increasing demand of food causes an excessive exploitation agricultural lands, often inducing phenomena soil sickness accompanied by the development soilborne diseases. use residual biomasses together with inorganic fertilizers can be considered a good practice for controlling inoculum density phytopathogens since conditioners release nitrogen, polyphenols and fatty acid...

Strawberry runners (transplants) in many regions of the world are produced soils treated with chemical fumigants to control pathogens and weeds meet phytosanitary requirements. Many fumigants, however, under threat withdrawal because concerns over their impact on environment (e.g., methyl bromide). The current study considered use microwaves for heat disinfestation soil field-grown first time. ...

Finding new sustainable tools for crop protection in horticulture has become mandatory. Giant reed (Arundo donax L.) is a tall, perennial, widely diffuse lignocellulosic grass, mainly proposed bioenergy production due to the fact of its high biomass yield and low agronomic requirements. Some studies have already highlighted antimicrobial antifungal properties giant reed-derived compounds. This ...

Anaerobic soil disinfestation (ASD) is a promising alternative to chemical fumigation for controlling soilborne plant pathogens and weeds. This study investigated the impact of brewer’s spent grain (BSG), locally available carbon source, on various weed species oomycete pathogen Pythium irregulare in ASD. Two greenhouse studies were conducted using BSG yeast at full reduced rates completely ran...
