In this study, conducted for three years on eleven malting barley varieties cultivated in central Italy, the incidence of different mycotoxigenic fungal genera, the identification of the Fusarium species associated with the Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) complex, and kernels contamination with deoxynivalenol (DON) and T-2 mycotoxins were determined. The influence of climatic conditions on Fusarium ...

We report the first case of invasive disease caused by Fusarium chlamydosporum. The patient had aplastic anemia with prolonged neutropenia and was treated with immunosuppressive therapy. While she was receiving empirical amphotericin B, a dark crusted lesion developed on her nasal turbinate. Histologic analysis revealed invasive hyaline hyphae and some darkly pigmented structures that resembled...

In solid organ recipients, as with other immunosuppressed patients, infections by Candida spp. and Aspergillus spp. are the most frequent invasive mycoses. Infections by Cryptococcus spp. and fungi of the Mucorales order are less common. Infections by Fusarium spp. and Scedosporium spp. are very uncommon, except in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant and patients with prolong...

Dove's excreta samples from state Bolívar several places in Venezuela, were evaluated to determine the presence of primary pathogen fungi in dove's excreta. Filamentous fungi such as: Aspergillus spp (31.1%), Mucor spp (20.2%), Penicillium spp (9.5%) and Fusarium spp (6.7%) were the most frequently isolated strains. Species such as Candida albicans (4.1%), Cryptococcus albidus and Rhodotorula s...

Symptoms of seed rot Hyssopus officinalis L. were noticed during health testing in 2018. According to morphological and cultural characteristics, isolates belong Fusarium spp. Alternaria spp.. Based on pathogenic properties, as well sequence analysis, isolate designated 4003/3 was identified graminearum deposited NCBI gene bank under Acc. Number MK061542. To our knowledge F. the causal agent Se...

Abstract Due to global shifts in climate, studies contrasting conditions of two natural and climatic zones are particular interest: (1) subzone mixed broad-leaved forests, (2) south-steppe subzone. In the period 2019-2020, 308 plant species from 56 families were surveyed. Phytopathogens damage plants, therefore increase loss quality materials. The frequency occurrence mycoses autumn is 2-14 tim...

Peanut haulms compost as a carrier of three Trichoderma species (T. harzianum, T. hamatum and T. koningii) exhibited different morphological and chemical characteristics and its ability to control Fusarium wilt of cumin plants caused by Fusarium oxysporum compared with peat/vermiculite. The peanut haulms carrier was able to increase the population size, numbers, viability, survival, microbial b...

The biomass and quality of Pseudostellariae heterophylla suffers a significant decline under monoculture. Since rhizosphere miobiome plays crucial roles in soil health, deep pyrosequencing combined with qPCR was applied to characterize the composition and structure of soil bacterial community under monoculture and different amendments. The results showed compared with the 1st-year planted (FP),...

Two vomitoxin-producing isolates of Fusarium spp. were grown on cracked corn for 1 to 8 weeks at 15, 20, 25, 28, and 32 degrees C. Maximum production of vomitoxin by Fusarium graminearum Schw. NRRL 5883 occurred at 30 degrees C and 40 days, and that by Fusarium roseum Schw. NRRL 6101 occurred at 26 degrees C and 41 days. These optimum production points were determined from response surface cont...

Mango malformation is the most serious disease of mango causing considerable damage to the mango orchards worldwide. It is a major threat for mango cultivation in north Indian belt. In recent years, Fusarium sp. is finding wide acceptability in scientific community as a causal agent of this disease. However, little information is known about the variability in Fusarium isolates from malformed m...
