Sugar beet production is threatened by beetroot rot, which can be triggered consecutive monoculture. Previous studies have shown the beneficial function of microbes affiliated with different plant compartments in inhibiting various pathogens. However, whether sugar root recruit particular at risk rot still unclear. Therefore, this study explored composition and community structure bacteria fung...

Traditionally, studies which placed a monetary value on the effect of lameness have calculated the costs at the herd level and rarely have they been specific to different types of lameness. These costs which have been calculated from former studies are not particularly useful for farmers in making economically optimal decisions depending on individual cow characteristics. The objective of this ...

rhizoctonia solani is the most serious problem on sugar beet beta vulgaris l. grown in north dakota and minnesota. picoxystrobin, a quinone outside inhibitor, and penthiopyrad, a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor, were used alone and in combinations for controlling r. solani ag 2-2 iiib on sugar beet under greenhouse conditions of 22 ± 2 °c and a 12-h photoperiod. fungicides were applied in-fur...

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...

A Gram-positive bacterium that inhibits several root-rot pathogens was isolated from alder forest soil on the Oregon coast. This organism, similar to Bacillus cereus, produces in culture media a heat-stable, broad-spectrum antibiotic which inhibits growth of four important Northwest conifer root disease fungi: Phellinus weirii (Murr.) Gilbertson, Fomes annosus (Fr.) Cke., Armillariella mellea (...

soybean, glycine max, is susceptible to a large number of disease agents such as seedling and root pathogens that cause serious damages to this crop plant. one of these soil-borne pathogens is macrophomina phaseolina, the causal agent of charcoal root rot. in this study, two bacteria, pantoea agglomerans and bacillus sp. bin, and a fungus, trichoderma harzianum t100, as potential biocontrol age...
