due to high antagonistic activity of trichoderma harizanum, 5 isolates t.h.k, t.h.bi, t.h.mo, var33 and torbat vi were selected and their efficacy was studied for controlling sugar beet damping-off caused by rhizoctonia solani, under in vitro and in vivo conditions.  antagonistic ability of t. harzianum isolates was investigated as dual culture on pda in concomitant and sequential cultures, 48 ...

in this research, bacillus strains efficiency were tested to control root knot nematode, meloidogyne javanica .one hundred and fifty strains were isolated from tomato rhizosphere. antagonistic activity of strains on m. javanica was checked in vitro assay. nematicidal ability of bacterial suspension of 1 × 108 cfu/ml was investigated on nematode egg and larvae with three replication using random...

Objective(s):Urinary tract infection (UTI) caused by bacteria is one of the most frequent infections in human population. Inappropriate use of antibiotics, often leads to appearance of drug resistance in bacteria. However, use of probiotic bacteria has been suggested as a partial replacement. This study was aimed to assess the antagonistic effects of Lactobacillus standard strains against bacte...

damping-off of seedling is a major disease of cotton in iran. disease may become epidemic in soil with low temperature and high moisture if seed treatment isn’t done. recently, trichoderma spp. are considered as one of the biological control methods of seedling damping-off. one proposed mechanism for biocontrol in trichoderma spp. is stimulation of host defense responses and induction of resist...

The concentration of thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH, thyroliberin) in rat islets of Langerhans is 30-fold higher than in whole rat pancreas, indicating that the islets are the main source of pancreatic TRH. The TRH extracted from islets is indistinguishable from synthetic TRH in its immunological and biological properties and in its inactivation by human serum. The physiologic function of i...

The activity of nalidixic acid combined with each of 10 other antimicrobial agents on 95 strains of Enterobacteriaceae was studied. Synergism was found less often than antagonism, and the commonest outcome was indifference. Combinations of nalidixic acid with kanamycin, gentamicin, or colistin were more often synergistic than antagonistic, whereas with the other antibiotics the combination was ...
