Leaf blotch of wheat caused by Bipolaris sorokiniana is a major constraint to wheat production, causing significant yield reduction resulting in severe economic impact. The present study characterizes to determine and compare pathogenic variability exist/not based on components of leaf blotch disease development and level of aggressiveness due to agroclimatic condition of B. sorokiniana in whea...

Vinte amostras de espécies de fungos, agentes da helmintosporiose em cereais, foram obtidas de diferentes regiões geográficas, sendo nove constituídas de Bipolaris oryzae, isoladas de cultura do arroz (Oryza sativa), sete de B. sorokiniana coletadas de trigo (Triticum aestivum), duas de B. maydis e duas de Exserohilum turcicum provenientes de milho (Zea mays). As amostras foram analisadas atrav...

Spot blotch is caused by Helminthosporium sativum or H. sorokinianum = Drechslera sorokiniana (Bipolaris sorokiniana). The disease is widespread in Illinois and is believed to lower potential barley yields by 1 to 3 percent; also, the bushel weight. The causal fungus affects all parts of the plant and produces a variety of symptoms, from a seedling blight and root rot to “Black point” of the ke...

BACKGROUND Bipolaris sorokiniana is a filamentous fungus that causes spot blotch disease in cereals like wheat and has severe economic consequences. However, information on the identities and role of the cell wall-degrading enzymes (CWDE) in B. sorokiniana is very limited. Several fungi produce CWDE like glycosyl hydrolases (GHs) that help in host cell invasion. To understand the role of these ...

Infection of etiolated wheat seedlings with a root rot fungus Bipolaris sorokiniana caused a strong deviation in the fatty acid composition of their total lipids from the control. The deviation occurred at the expense of that lipid group, which predominates in a given plant organ (shoots or roots), and peak deviation coincided with the onset of a severe inhibition of growth.

abstract common root rot induced by bipolaris sorokiniana, is one of the most important diseases of wheat. chemical control of this disease is difficult because of it is a soil-born pathogen, so that, application of other methods is useful to reduce disease level especially resistance cultivars. in this research, were examined reaction of some wheat cultivars and lines against common root rot i...

A study on response of 29 barley genotypes resistant to Bipolaris leaf blight (Bipolaris sorokiniana) was conducted to investigate the relationship of the components of resistance of 29 barley genotypes. Data on five components of resistance viz., infection frequency (number of lesions per plant), lesion size (mm), percent leaf area affected by lesion, percent necrotic area on leaf, and disease...

In this study, 10 species of Bipolaris viz.B. bicolor, B. cynodontis, B. cylindrica, B. hawaiiensis,B. prieskaensis, B. sorghicola, B. sorokiniana,B. spicifera, B. zeae and B. zeicola and four species of Curvularia viz.C. fallax, C. heteropogonicola, C. inaequalis and C. lunata were identified on graminicolous species or soil. Bipolaris cylindrica, B. prieskaensis, B. zeae,C. fallax and C. hete...
