Moročko, I. 2006. Characterization of the strawberry pathogen Gnomonia fragariae, and biocontrol possibilities. Doctoral dissertation. ISSN 1652-6880, ISBN 91-576-7120-6 The strawberry root rot complex or black root rot is common and increasing problem in perennial strawberry plantings worldwide. In many cases the causes of root rot are not detected or it is referred to several pathogens. Durin...

Root rots are a constraint for staple food crops and a long-lasting food security problem worldwide. In common beans, yield losses originating from root damage are frequently attributed to dry root rot, a disease caused by the Fusarium solani species complex. The aim of this study was to model the current potential distribution of common bean dry root rot on a global scale and to project change...

Rhizoctonia oryzae causes root rot and stunting of wheat, barley, and other small grains, and is widely distributed in eastern Washington State. The spatial distribution of both the pathogen and the disease were studied over two seasons in a 36-ha field north of Pullman, Wash. The field was direct seeded with spring barley in 2000, then divided and planted to winter wheat and spring wheat in 20...

Abstract Shallots are one of the important commodities in Indonesia, and have become a mainstay for farmers certain areas. This is due to high economic value, short life, an average harvest time only two months. In addition, Brebes district, Central Java production centers, here complained about increasing disturbance attacks recent years. condition observed form pathgen Fusarium oxysporum f.sp...

Root rot symptoms caused by Leptosphaeria maculans were first reported in Australian canola crops in 2001 but little is known about their importance and prevalence. In a survey of over 100 commercial canola crops in southern NSW, all paddocks had plants with root rot symptoms in 2004, whilst 86% of paddocks did in 2003. Across the two seasons surveyed, there was a strong relationship (r = 0.63)...

BACKGROUND Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng Meyer) is a perennial herb prone to various root diseases, with Phytophthora cactorum being considered one of the most dreaded pathogens. P. cactorum causes foliar blight and root rot. Although chemical pesticides are available for disease control, attention has been shifted to viable, eco-friendly, and cost-effective biological means such as plant growt...

The effectiveness of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria especially Pseudomonas fluorescens isolates were tested against charcoal rot of chickpea both in green house as well as in field conditions. Most of the isolates reduced charcoal rot disease and promoted plant growth in green house. A marked increase in shoot and root length was observed in P. fluorescens treated plants. Among all the P....
