Indian ricegrass {Oryzopsis hymenoides) : Seedling blight (far West) ; common root rot and crown rot (far West) ; rhizoctonia rot (scattered) ; snow molds (Pacific Northwest); seed rots (general); root necrosis and crown rots (far West).

many fungi cause sugar beet root rot during various stages of the plant growth. among them rhizoctonia spp. induce crown rot, dry rot and violet root rot on sugar beet (whitney and duffos,1986). root rot caused by phytophthora drechsleri has been observed in fields with excessive moisture (habibi,1975). pythium aphanidermatum has been recognized as one of the causal agents of sugar beet, dampin...

Root rot is an important and widespread disease that often causes significant reduction in the yield and quality of harvested peas throughout the production areas in New York. Pea root rot can be caused by one of several soilborne pathogens or various combinations of root pathogens and also non-pathogens. In recent years, Fusarium solani f. sp. pisi (causal pathogen of Fusarium root rot) has be...

The interaction of lesion nematodes, black root rot disease caused by Rhizoctonia fragariae, and root damage caused by feeding of the scarab larva, Maladera castanea, was determined in greenhouse studies. Averaged over all experiments after 12 weeks, root weight was reduced 13% by R. fragariae and 20% by M. castanea. The percentage of the root system affected by root rot was increased by inocul...

ABSTRACT Strain L324-92 is a novel Bacillus sp. with biological activity against three root diseases of wheat, namely take-all caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici, Rhizoctonia root rot caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG8, and Pythium root rot caused mainly by Pythium irregulare and P. ultimum, that exhibits broad-spectrum inhibitory activity and grows at temperatures from 4 to 40 degree...

Strawberry (Fragaria×ananassa) is one of the most important berry crops in the world. Root rot of strawberry caused by Rhizoctonia spp. is a serious threat to commercial strawberry production worldwide. However, there is no information on the genetic diversity and phylogenetic status of Rhizoctonia spp. associated with root rot of strawberry in Australia. To address this, a total of 96 Rhizocto...

rhizoctonia solani is the most serious problem on sugar beet beta vulgaris l. grown in north dakota and minnesota. picoxystrobin, a quinone outside inhibitor, and penthiopyrad, a succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor, were used alone and in combinations for controlling r. solani ag 2-2 iiib on sugar beet under greenhouse conditions of 22 ± 2 °c and a 12-h photoperiod. fungicides were applied in-fur...

Sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) germplasms FC716 through FC719 (Reg. no. GP-143 to GP-146, P1 574627 to P1574630) were developed by the USD A-ARS in cooperation with the Beet Sugar Development Foundation. Each of these germplasms was developed from genetically different and distinctive sources. These lines should provide resistance to root-rotting strains (AG-2-2) of Rhizoctonia solani Kilhn and p...

Antifungal activity of ethanol-water extracts of four medicinal plants, cinnamon (Cinnamomum verum Presl.), anise (Pimpinella anisum L.), black seed (Nigella sativa L.) and clove (Syzygium aromaticum L. Merr. & Perry.) was investigated against pea (Pisum sativum L.) root-rot fungus Rhizoctonia solani. In vitro antifungal activity test shown a high growth inhibition at concentration (4%) of each...
