The investigation was carried out at the laboratory of Plant Pathology Department, SASRD, Nagaland University (NU), Medziphema Campus, Nagaland, India during year kharif (August-October, 2020) to evaluate antagonistic potentiality Trichoderma spp. (T. harzianum, T. asperellum and virens) against three diseases pigeonpea viz. Alternaria leaf spot (Alternaria alternata), Collar rot (Sclerotium ro...

Dieback disease caused by L. theobromae has destroyed nutmeg plantations in Aceh Selatan. Until now, effective control not been found, while farmer continue to use pesticides that have a negative impact on the environment. Therefore, biological is an alternative environmentally friendly being promoted. The purpose of this researth was dieback inducing resistance using three spesies Trichoderma ...

Metal coordination chemistry is common in biology, with many proteins containing metal ion-based structural motifs or catalytic centers. An interesting example of nature’s use coordinate bonding to create a proteinaceous material found the Alitta virens marine worm jaw. Inspired by Zn+2 cross-linked polymers A. virens, we have extended cross-linking preceramic polymers. Commercially available S...

BACKGROUND In continuation of our previously interest in the saccharification of agriculture wastes by Bacillus megatherium in solid state fermentation (SSF), we wish to report an investigation and comparative evaluation among Trichoderma sp. for the saccharification of four alkali-pretreated agricultural residues and production of hydrolytic enzymes, carboxymethyl cellulase (CMCase), filter pa...

Studies have only recently begun to underline the importance of including data on the physiological flexibility of a species when modelling its vulnerability to extinction from climate change. We investigated the effects of a 4°C increase in ambient temperature (Ta), similar to that predicted for southern Africa by the year 2080, on certain physiological variables of a 10-12 g passerine bird en...

Interpreting how far organisms within fossil assemblages may have been transported and if they all originated from the same location is fundamental to understanding whether they represent true palaeocommunities. In a three-factorial experimental design, we used an annular flume to generate actualistic sandy sediment-density flows that were fast (2 ms-1) and fully turbulent in order to test the ...

application of trichoderma species is a harmless method in controlling soil borne plant diseases thus reducing hazardous pesticide use and environmental pollution. some trichoderma isolates performing proper inhibitory effect against fusarium oxysporum f. sp. tuberosi under laboratory and green house conditions were screened against wilt disease of potato caused by this pathogen under field con...
