in vitro and greenhouse studies were conducted to investigate the possibility of an interaction between two systemic insecticides of: thiodicarb (larvin df 80) and imidacloprid (guacho sw 70), and seedling disease organisms of: rhizoctonia solani, fusarium moniliforme and pythium ultimum. when in vitro concentrations of imidacloprid and thiodicarb were applied, a fungistatic activity occurred. ...

Strains of Fusarium moniliforme from different geographic areas and from corn and other substrates were tested for the ability to produce fumonisins in culture. The test results indicate that the potential exists for production of fumonisins by such strains in agricultural commodities and other substrates in widespread geographic areas.

KELLERMAN, T. S., MARASAS, \Y/. F. 0., PIENAAR, J. G. & NAUDE, T. \Y/. A mycotoxicosis of Equidae caused by Fusarium moniliforme Sheldon. A preliminary communication. Onderstepoorl j. vet. Res. 39(4), 205-208 (1972). Fusarium moniliforme Sheldon was isolated from maize suspected of causing field cases of leucoenccphalomalacia in horses in South Africa. It was cultured on autoclaved maize and do...

Using the seed-plate technique, 18 different isolates of Fusarium moniliforme were isolated on pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB) agar medium from 18 samples of a local variety of corn collected from locations in Minia Governorate. The isolates of F. moniliforme were screened for their ability to produce fumonisins on polished rice grains using the solid state fermentation technique. Based on thin ...

This article describes clinical, etiologic and pathologic diagnosis of an outbreak of equine leukoencephalomalacia. Two samples of the corn consumed by the affected horses contained fumonisin B 1 at levels of 46 and 53 μg/g and Fusarium moniliforme, a good in vitro mycotoxin producer.

The gibberellin content of pea seeds developing in excised pea pods cultured on a medium containing the plant growth retardant AMO-1618 was reduced in comparison with pea seeds cultured on retardant-free medium. The reduction increased with increasing concentrations of AMO-1618. However, at the lowest concentration tested (5 milligrams per liter) the growth of the seeds was not affected whereas...

BACKGROUND Fusarium moniliforme is a phytopathogenic facultative fungus with a cosmopolitan distribution in all types of climates, and has a wide host range, including, among others, bean, rice, wheat and sorghum crops. There is a current lack of knowledge regarding the potential of these fungi, so it is considered to be of great importance to obtain information related to the biological activi...

A combination of MICs of an N-chloramine, a simple chlorinated amino acid, and diazolidinyl urea gave synergistic activity against bacteria, but not fungi. The two compounds at a higher concentration, 0.1 and 0.3%, respectively, gave synergistic inhibition of fungi; kill times were 1 h for Trichophyton tonsurans, 3 h for Aspergillus niger and Fusarium moniliforme, and 6 h for Aspergillus fumiga...

Seed health testing by studying the seed-borne fungi of soybean seeds is an important step in the management of the seed-borne diseases. In the present study seed-borne fungi was studied by using agar plate method. A number of seed-borne fungal species was isolated from the agar plate. These seed-borne fungal sps. were Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, A. fumigatus, Chaetomium globosum, Curvularia ...
