abstract common root rot induced by bipolaris sorokiniana, is one of the most important diseases of wheat. chemical control of this disease is difficult because of it is a soil-born pathogen, so that, application of other methods is useful to reduce disease level especially resistance cultivars. in this research, were examined reaction of some wheat cultivars and lines against common root rot i...

in order to study the mode of genetic control and heritability of morphological characteristics important for the improvement of root weight, sugar yield and white sugar yield in tropical beet, griffing's diallel cross method along with the biplot display of diallel data were applied. nine sugar beet lines including 7112-36, 7173, 474, 452, 261, 436-104, sb-firoz, rr607 and 436 were crosse...

fusarium solani wasisolated from diseased roots of common bean (phaseolus vulgaris) grown in fields which were severely infected with fusarium root rot of bean in markazi province of iran. specific pcr primer pairs were used for the identification and verification of f. solani (mart.) f.sp. phaseoli (burkholder) w.c. snyder and n.h. hans. spore suspensions of f. solani f.sp. phaseoli were subje...

Yield losses of bread wheat due to crown rot can be more severe when drought conditions occur during the grain-filling period. Root architecture characteristics are important for soil exploration and below-ground resource acquisition essential adaptation water-limited environments. Traits such as root angle, length density have been strongly associated with efficiency contribute yield stability...

Cylindrocarpon destructans/Ilyonectria radicicola is thought to cause both rusty symptom and root-rot disease of American and Korean ginseng. Root-rot disease poses a more serious threat to ginseng roots than rusty symptoms, which we argue result from the plant defense response to pathogen attack. Therefore, strains causing rotten root are characterized as more aggressive than strains causing r...

the present study examined the effects of mycorrhizal fungus glomus sp. on pistachio growth parameters and root-rot disease of pistachio seedlings under greenhouse conditions. the experiment was conducted in factorial arrangement based on completely randomized design with six replications. examined factors included: levels of glomus inoculation (with (m1) and without inoculation (m0) and two le...

four sugar beet genotypes with different reactions to root rot pathogens were evaluated for resistance to important root rot agents including pythium aphanidermatum, phytophthora drechsleri, rhizoctonia solani ag-2-2 and r. solani ag-4. inoculums for pythium and phytophthora were 3-5 day actively growing colony of the pathogens on cma medium, while for rhizoctonia isolates were nine infected co...

Research in plant disease management focuses on developing safe methods for humans and the environment in order to prevent the entry of harmful chemicals in food. Simple inorganic salts have low cost and are safe enough to be used as pesticides. Phytophthora genus causes crown and root rot (gummosis) in crops and leads to great losses in some pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) produ...

objective: the aim of this study was to estimate genetic variability and phonetic relationships of 50 isolates of p. sojae from iran. methods: during 2005–2007, 142 isolates of phytophthora sojae were collected from soil samples and diseased soybean plants from lorestan, mazandaran, golestan and ardabil provinces. races of the isolates were determined. dna of p. sojae fifty isolates was amplifi...
