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...

A series of 2-(N-arylsulfonylindol-3-yl)-3-aryl-1,3-thiazinan-4-one derivatives were synthesized and evaluated in vitro against seven phytopathogenic fungi, namely Fusarium graminearum, Alternaria solani, Fusarium oxysporium f. sp. vasinfectum, Alternaria brassicae, Valsa mali, Alternaria alternata, and Pyricularia oryzae. Among all derivatives, especially compound 4j exhibited a potential anti...

Nine indole derivatives were evaluated in vitro against Fusarium graminearum, Alternaria alternata, Helminthosporium sorokinianum, Pyricularia oryzae, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cucumarinum, and Alternaria brassicae. Most of the compounds were found to possess antifungal activities. Especially compounds 2, 5, 8, and 9 exhibited broad-spectrum antifungal act...

Several 2,6-bis-(un)substituted phenoxymethylpyridines were synthesized and evaluated in vitro against Fusarium graminearum, Helminthosporium sorokinianum, Alternaria brassicae, Alternaria alternata, and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum. Among all derivatives, compound 3a exhibited a broad-spectrum antifungal activity against the five phytopathogenic fungi.

Alternaria alternata were isolated and identified from root, foliage and soil of both wheat and rice crops and their aggressiveness was studied using aggressiveness analysis. Isolates of Alternaria alternata were genetically characterized using RAPD's. The investigations were based on surveys of wheat and rice crops in the rice-wheat cropping areas of Pakistan. The study showed that Alternaria ...

In the present investigation five pathogenic fungal isolates such as Alternaria alternata, Alternaria macrospora MKP2, Alternaria macrospora MKP4 Alternaria sp. PMK1 and Alternaria sp. PMK2, were isolated from diseased leaves of parthenium plant and found to be pathogenic to this weed. Isolated pathogens were screened qualitatively and quantitatively for lignocellulolytic activities. All the fu...

BERNADOVIČOVÁ, S., IVANOVÁ, H. 2011. Hyphomycetes and Coelomycetes fungi isolated from affected leaves and twigs of cherry laurel trees. Folia oecol., 38: 137–145. The aim of this work was to identify fungi occurring on leaves and twigs of Prunus laurocerasus L. Mycological observations were carried out on leaves and twigs collected from symptomatic cherry laurels growing in green areas of the ...

The Alternaria brown spot (ABS) is a disease caused in tangerine plants and its hybrids by the fungus Alternaria alternata f. sp. citri which has been found in Brazil since 2001. Due to the recent occurrence in Brazilian orchards, the epidemiology and genetic variability of this pathogen is still an issue to be addressed. Here it is presented a survey about the genetic variability of this fungu...

Diseases caused by Alternaria sp. are among the most common diseases of crops throughout the world. Alternaria sp. is a common component of the flora of wheat seed. Although isolation of Alternaria sp. from wheat (Triticum aestivum) seed has been reported in Argentina, development of the Alternaria blight in plants from infected seeds has not been demonstrated experimentally. Seed transmission ...
