The alkaloid securinine was assessed against spore germination of some plant pathogenic and saprophytic fungi (Alternaria alternata, Alternaria brassicae, Alternaria brassicicola, Curvularia lunata, Curvularia maculans, Curvularia pallenscens, Colletotrichum musae, Colletotrichum sp., Erysiphe pisi, Helminthosporium echinoclova, Helminthosporium spiciferum, Heterosporium sp.). Spore germination...

Erysiphe is the largest genus of powdery mildews (PMs), a group obligate plant pathogenic fungi. Exploration biodiversity generally relies on regional surveys and our aim to investigate PMs in Taiwan. Collections fungi five species around agricultural environments were subjected morphological molecular characterization, using both internal transcribed spacer (ITS) β-tubulin gene (TUB2) regions ...

An allosecurinine alkaloid was assayed against spore germination of some saprophytic and pathogenic fungi e.g., Alternaria alternata, A. solani, A. brassicicola, A. brassicae, Curvularia lunata, C. pallescens, C. maculans, Curvularia species, Colletotrichum species, C. musae, C. gloeosporioides, Erysiphe pisi, Fusarium udum, Helminthosporium echinoclova, H. pennisetti, H. spiciferum, and Hetero...

None (Members of Erysiphales cause powdery mildew diseases on wide host rang and produce whitish primary mycelium on surface of infected parts. Based on microscopic study of one specimen on Jasminum sp., structures of fungus including conidiophores and conidia were observed. Foot cells of conidiophores were cylindrical or curved in basal part, followed by 1-2 shorter cells. Conidia were ellipso...

in the framework of a study on the powdery mildew fungi in iran, several infected plant specimens were collected from around the country during 2001-2009. based on the results of the study erysiphe quercicola on quercus sp. and e. malvae on malva sp., golovinomyces ambrosiae on helianthus spp., golovinomyces fischeri on senecio glaucus, are the newly reported for iranian mycobiota. in addition,...

Crude extracts and active principles from medicinal plants have shown potential role in controlling plant diseases in glasshouses as well as in fields as one of the safest and ecofriendly methods. The effect of nor-securinine (an alkaloid) isolated from Phyllanthus amarus has been seen against spore germination of some fungi (Alternaria brassicae, A. solani, Curvularia pennisetti, Curvularia sp...

In the framework of the project "collection and Identification of fungi in Iran" mycobiota of Kiasar National Park located in Mazandaran province (Northern Iran) was studied. During the first phase of this research, micromycetes of trees and shrubs from Kiasar National Park were collected and identified. In the current paper, 25 species of micromycetes of this region are reported. Among identif...

BACKGROUND Metrafenone has been used in Europe in integrated pest management programmes since 2006 to control powdery mildews, including Erysiphe necator. Its exact mode of action is not known, but it is unique among fungicide classes used in powdery mildew management. Recently, resistance to metrafenone was reported in Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici. In this study we investigated metrafenone...
