The occurrence of Fusarium spp associated with pecan tree (Carya illinoinensis) diseases in Brazil has been observed in recent laboratory analyses in Rio Grande do Sul State. Thus, in this study, we i) obtained Fusarium isolates from plants with disease symptoms; ii) tested the pathogenicity of these Fusarium isolates to pecan; iii) characterized and grouped Fusarium isolates that were pathogen...

in the present study, the diversity of trichoderma spp. was investigated in alkaline pistachio soils at different geographic area in kerman province, iran. a total of 161 trichoderma isolates were obtained and identified at the species level by analysis of their morphological characters and sequence analysis of their internal transcribed spacer regions of the rrna cluster and tef1 genes as phyl...

The purpose of this study was to identify new species of Parastagonospora in association with poaceous plants in Iran. Symptomatic leaves and ears were collected from different poaceous species in the field from provinces including Fars, Khuzestan and Kohgiluyeh and Boyerahmad. In the present research, 12 isolates based on morphological characteristics and sequencing of LSU and ITS-rDN...

Plant Pathology Science 9(2):1-13. DOI: 10.2982/PPS.9.2.1   Introduction: Chickpea blight, caused by Didymella rabiei, is the most limiting factor in chickpea production areas in the world, including the western province...

in recent years, anthracnose disease of citrus has caused and contiunes to cause heavy losses to some citrus commercial tree varieties in mazandaran province. this disease is deeply spread out in the citrus orchards of the province. in order to isolate and identify the causal agent or agents of the disease, random sampling was done from infected trees during 2004-2005. in lab, samples were cult...

AIM A study was conducted with the objective to isolate probiotic microorganisms from swine intestine. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this study 63 isolates (24 caeca, 24 colon mucosal scrapings, and 15 rectal swab samples) were collected from Large White Yorkshire pigs. The isolates were inoculated and grown in de Man Rogosa Sharpe broth at 37°C with 5% CO2 for 48 h and subjected to morphological ...

In the present study, we report the occurrence of cry8 positive isolates of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) in selected white grub, Holotrichia serrata F. (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae), endemic soils of sugarcane ecosystem and other places in Tamil Nadu. Out of the 66 soil samples collected and screened for white grub specific Bt, 74 isolates of the bacterium, all containing only spherical crystal tox...

Skin lesions were found in two 3–4-year-old Holstein cows in a dairy farm in Shiraz. Lesions were distributed mostly around the neck, forelimbs, hindlimbs, and bilateral of midline portion and varied from nodule-like structure to patch with extensive accumulation of crust. Skin scraping samples were taken from each animal and direct smears were prepared, stained with Giemsa and observed under a...

fusarium culmorum which is considered as the causal agent of fusarium head blight, can produce deoxynivalenol (don), nivalenol (niv) and their acetylated derivatives. this study has been assessed in order to detect the tri13 gene using primer pairs tri13donr/tri13f and tri13r/tri13nivf, to investigate the potential of f. culmorum isolates in the production of don and niv in west azarbayjan prov...
