Two simple formulations of an antagonistic strain of Trichoderma koningii were employed against southern blight disease caused by Sclerotium rolfsii in seedling, potted outdoor and field-grown tomatoes (cvs. Ife No. 1 and Ibadan Local). Corn cob germling inoculum and mycelium powder of T. koningii significantly controlled ( P ≤0·05) symptoms of damping off, blight and wilting in both tomato cultivars. The populations of the antagonist increased from an initial 1 × 104 to about 1 × 106 colony-forming units per g of soil in the protected plants. Moreover, sclerotial counts decreased significantly ( P ≤0·05) in these soils and those sclerotia found had been parasitized by T. koningii. Trichoderma -protected plants were more vigorous than those in the other treatment categories. The significance of these results is discussed in relation to the use of Trichoderma in appropriately simplified formulations. 相似文献

ABSTRACT A strategy for integrated biological and chemical control of Botrytis cinerea in nonheated greenhouse vegetables was developed. The biocontrol agent used was a commercial preparation developed from an isolate of Trichoderma harzianum, T39 (Trichodex). Decisions concerning whether to spray the biocontrol agent or a fungicide were made based on a weather-based disease warning system. The integrated strategy (BOTMAN [short for Botrytis manager]) was implemented as follows: when slow or no disease progress was expected, no spraying was needed; when an outbreak of epidemics was expected, use of a chemical fungicide was recommended; in all other cases, application of T. harzianum T39 was recommended. Future weather information (a 4-day weather forecast provided by the Israel Weather Forecast Service) was more useful for disease warnings than immediate past weather. The integrated strategy was compared with weekly applications of fungicide in 11 experiments conducted over 3 years in greenhouse-grown tomato and cucumber. Disease reduction in the integrated strategy (63.9 +/- 3.0%) did not differ significantly (P < 0.05) from the fungicide-only treatment (70.1 +/- 3.6%). The number of fungicide sprays in the integrated strategy ranged from 2 to 7 (mean 4.2) compared to 7 to 13 (mean 10.5) in the fungicide treatment. The integrated strategy averaged 5.9 sprays of T. harzianum T39. For the integrated strategy, one treatment omitted use of T. harzianum T39 to estimate the contribution of this agent to disease control. Disease reduction in that treatment (49.1 +/- 4.8%) was significantly (P < 0.05) inferior to the combined chemical and biological strategy, indicating that the T. harzianum T39 sprays had a measurable effect on disease control. 相似文献

Stem canker and black scurf are diseases of potato caused by the fungus Rhizoctonia solani . Spatiotemporal experimentation and empirical modelling were applied for the first time to investigate the effect of antagonistic Trichoderma harzianum on the dynamics of soilborne R. solani on individual potato plants. Trichoderma harzianum reduced the severity of symptoms, expressed as 'rhizoctonia stem lesion index' (RSI), during the first 7 days post-inoculation when the inoculum of R. solani was placed at certain distances (30–60 mm) from the host. For example, with inoculum at 40 mm from the host, RSI was 6 and 40 with and without T. harzianum , respectively. At later observation times, the antagonistic effect was overcome. Trichoderma harzianum reduced the severity of black scurf on progeny tubers. Furthermore, the mean number of progeny tubers per potato plant was reduced by the biocontrol treatment (means of 6·5 ± 1·1 and 9·9 ± 2·7 tubers per plant with and without T. harzianum , respectively), as was the proportion of small (0·1–20·0 g) tubers (48% and 66% with and without T. harzianum , respectively). Additionally, there were fewer malformed and green-coloured tubers in pots treated with T. harzianum than in those without T. harzianum . 相似文献

Induced systemic resistance in Trichoderma harzianum T39 biocontrol of Botrytis cinerea 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Biocontrol of Botrytis cinerea with Trichoderma spp. is generally believed to result from direct interaction of the biocontrol agent with the pathogen or from a Trichoderma-induced change in environmental conditions that affects B. cinerea development. In this work we provide arguments for the participation of induced plant defence in T. harzianum T39 control of B. cinerea. In tomato, lettuce, pepper, bean and tobacco, T. harzianum T39 application at sites spatially separated from the B. cinerea inoculation resulted in a 25–100%percnt; reduction of grey mould symptoms, caused by a delay or suppression of spreading lesion formation. Given the spatial separation of both micro-organisms, this effect was attributed to the induction of systemic resistance by T. harzianum T39. The observation that in bean the effect of T. harzianum T39 was similar to that of the rhizobacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa KMPCH, a reference strain for the induction of systemic resistance, confirmed this hypothesis. Since B. cinerea control on tobacco leaves sprayed with T. harzianum T39 was similar to the control on leaves from T. harzianum T39 soil-treated plants, induction of plant defence might also participate in biocontrol on treated leaves. 相似文献

In late 2003, nine populations of Sclerotinia homoeocarpa in Ontario Canada (seven of which had been previously sampled in early 1994, prior to the registration of sterol demethylation-inhibiting (DMI) fungicides for turf disease control in Canada) were sampled and tested for sensitivity to propiconazole. Four of the nine populations had not been treated with DMI fungicides during the intervening years, and isolates from these locations were sensitive to propiconazole (geometric mean EC50 values of 0·005–0·012 µ g mL−1 , compared with 0·005–0·008 µ g mL−1 for the original 1994 populations). Among the five populations from 2003 that had been exposed to DMI fungicides, mean EC50 values were significantly greater, ranging from 0·020 to 0·048 µ g mL−1 . A significant correlation of determination was found between estimated number of fungicide applications and log EC50 ( R 2 = 0·832, P = 0·0001), and the equation predicted that 42·3 applications of propiconazole would be needed to bring a sensitive population (EC50 < 0·01 µ g mL−1 ) to a resistant level (EC50 > 0·10 µ g mL−1 ). Fungicide sensitivity vs. duration of fungicide efficacy was also tested, and it was found that isolates with decreased sensitivity were able to more quickly overcome the inhibitory effects of fungicide application, reducing the duration of control from 3 weeks to 2 weeks. 相似文献

Comparison of Antagonists of Botrytis cinerea in Greenhouse-grown Cucumber and Tomato under Different Climatic Conditions 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The efficacy of Trichoderma harzianum T39 and the yeasts Aureobasidium pullulans and Cryptococcus albidus against Botrytis cinerea in cucumber and tomato was compared with chemical control. Four experiments were conducted in cucumber grown under different climatic conditions in The Netherlands, and two experiments were done in tomato both in the Netherlands and in Israel. T. harzianum and A. pullulans showed the most consistent control of B. cinerea, reducing stem lesions and death of plants by 40–100% in most cases. Control of stem lesions and subsequent wilting was generally better than control of symptoms on fruits. In some cases, the biocontrol agents were more effective than the broad-spectrum fungicide tolylfluanid and the selective fungicide iprodione. The climatic conditions did not strongly influence the efficacy of the biocontrol agents, but regression analysis showed that high temperature during the day and high vapour pressure deficit during the night reduced biocontrol efficacy. From the results, prospects for biocontrol of B. cinerea in greenhouse vegetables appear good under a range of conditions. 相似文献

Aqueous suspensions of conidia of 285 wild-type strains and mutants of Gliocladium virens, Trichoderma hamatum, T. harzianum and T. viride were tested against Sclerotium rolfsii in the greenhouse. Ten strains of G. virens and four strains of T. harzianum suppressed damping-off of snapbean by 30-50% and blight by 36-74%. All strains of T. hamatum and T. viride tested as conidia were ineffective. In general, strains of G. virens were more effective in suppressing disease in the greenhouse than strains of T. harzianum. Several strains of G. virens and T. harzianum used alone were equal to or more effective than double and triple mixtures of such strains in disease suppression. Of four formulations of G. virens tested, germlings, alginate-bran-fermenter biomass pellets, and Pyrax-fermenter biomass mixtures reduced disease considerably and all three formulations were more effective than conidia in aqueous suspension. Strain G1-3 of G. virens added to soil as Pyrax-fermenter biomass mixtures in amounts to provide colony-forming units ranging from 1 -5 × 103 to 1 -2 × 104 per g soil provided statistically significant protection of the host at all concentrations. The extent of biological control with strains G1-3 and G1-21 of G. virens also depended on the strain of the pathogen used. Both strains effectively suppressed disease caused by strain Sr-1 (small sclerotia) of S. rolfsii. They were partially effective against strain Sr-116 (medium size sclerotia) and ineffective against strain Sr-3 (large sclerotia). Although strains G1-3 and G1-21 colonized the sclerotia of all three strains of S. rolfsii in soil effectively, they only reduced germinability of sclerotia of strain Sr-1. 相似文献

The effects of different levels of inoculum of Aspergillus carbonarius and time of inoculation on berry infection and the development of aspergillus bunch rot on grapevines (cv. Sultana) were studied under field conditions. Inflorescences at full bloom were inoculated with aqueous spore suspensions of A. carbonarius containing 0 or 1 × 106 spores mL−1 in 2004/05 and 0, 1 × 102 or 1 × 105 spores mL−1 in 2005/06. In both years, the incidence of infection in inoculated berries was significantly higher than in uninoculated berries. Incidence of infection in berries from veraison until harvest was higher than at earlier stages of bunch development (berry set to berries that were still hard and green). Inoculation of bunches at veraison did not significantly increase A. carbonarius infection prior to harvest, at harvest, 6 days after harvest or when berries were over-ripe. Bunches inoculated at harvest did not significantly increase infection 6 days after harvest or when berries were over-ripe. Aspergillus carbonarius was isolated more frequently from the pedicel end (53·1%) than from the middle section (37·5%) and distal end (35·0%) of berries that were inoculated with 105 spores mL−1 . 相似文献

Multiple fungicide resistance to benzimidazoles, dicarboximides and diethofencarb in field isolates of Botrytis cinerea in Israel 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4
During the period January-March 1989, 15 greenhouses at 12 sites in Israel were surveyed for the presence of fungicide-resistant strains of Botrytis cinerea , using a fungicide-amended Botrytis -selective medium. Resistance to benzimidazoles (BenR ) and to dicarboximides (DicR ) was frequent in most sites. Resistance to carbendazim + diethofencarb (BenR NPCR ) was found in all eight sites in which a mixture of these fungicides had been used against grey mould, but not in other sites. A new phenotype of multiple fungicide resistance was found among these isolates. The new phenotype, designated BenR DicR NPCR , combines the three previously described characteristics of resistance to benzimidazole, dicarboximide and N -phenylcarbamate fungicides. It was found only in cucumber greenhouses that had been sprayed with the fungicide mixture carbendazim + diethofencarb against grey mould. Isolates of this phenotype were pathogenic in artificial inoculation of cucumber cotyledons treated with carbendazim, iprodione or carbendazim + diethofencarb. 相似文献

The height of barley stunted by Rhizoctonia solani anastomosis group 8 was significantly increased by up to 72·8% after incubation for 8 days at 20°C in seedling tray tests following application of the mycoparasite Verticillium biguttatum. The pathogen and mycoparasite were applied at the rate of 1% Perlite maizemeal inoculum (w/w potting mixture) resulting in propagule densities of approximately 24·0 and 6·6 × 105 colony-forming units (cfu) per g potting mixture, respectively. Sieving (2 mm) R. solani inoculum prior to dilution in potting mixture increased the recovery of propagules from 1·2 × 2·1 × 103 cfu per g inoculum compared with recovery when inoculum was sieved after dilution. Applications of a V. biguttatum isolate from the UK (vbl) and a Dutch isolate (M73) reduced stunting to a similar extent but did not stimulate the growth of healthy plants. The height of stunted plants was significantly increased after application of V. biguttatum inoculum after 6 days if inoculated trays were preincubated for 1 day prior to planting but a similar increase was only detected after 7 days if seeds were planted immediately. The number of stunted plants which emerged after 4 days was significantly increased by treatment with V. biguttatum but preincubation had no additional effect. These results suggested that control of R. solani was effected both before and after the initiation of disease. 相似文献

Four fungi ( Chaetomium globosum, Trichoderma viride, T. harzianum, Trichoderma sp.) were capable of reducing the incidence of onion white rot relative to the untreated control in two soil-box trials. When applied as a soil additive (sand: bran: fungal homogenate, 1:1:2) at the rate of 0-1% wheat bran/g dry soil, all fungal isolates provided levels of disease control equivalent to the fungicide (procymidone 0-5 g a.i./100g seed) treatment. The best results were achieved with the Chaetomium globosum and Trichoderma (C62) isolates which gave 78% and 73% control of white rot. respectively, in trial 1 and 67% and 73% control, respectively, in trial 2. Reduced control was observed when the test fungi were applied as seed coatings or incorporated into alginate pellets. 相似文献

Effects of avirulent bacteriocin-producing strains of Pseudomonas solanacearum on the control of bacterial wilt of tobacco 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Root systems of tobacco dipped in suspensions containing 2 × 109 colony forming units (CFU)/ml of avirulent bacteriocin-producing strains (ABPS) of Pseudomonas solanacearum and assayed immediately after planting in steam-sterilized soil had 8 × 106 CFU/root system of ABPS. The bacterial population declined to an average of 5·3 × 105 CFU/root system after 30 days. Roots of seedlings dipped in bacterial suspensions of ABPS were more effectively protected against wilt caused by P. solanacearum than those dipped in suspensions of an avirulent nonbacteriocin-producing strain (ANBPS). Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) isolated from one ABPS (121) inhibited the attachment of bacteria on roots by 70% but had no effect on the reduction of wilt, whereas bacterial cells significantly reduced the disease severity as compared to LPS or water treatment. In steam-sterilized soil containing a 1:1 mixture (5 × 105 CFU/g of oven-dried soil) of ABPS 121 or 237 and the virulent strain K-60, ABPS 121 reduced multiplication of the virulent strain in soil and in the rhizosphere of seedlings. When roots of seedlings were dipped in a suspension of 2 × 109 CFU/ml of ABPS before planting, root colonization by the virulent strain added to steam-sterilized soil at 2 × 106 CFU/g of oven-dried soil was significantly reduced. When roots were dipped in a suspension of ABPS and assayed 20 days after planting, 98% of the bacterial population was found in the original zone of inoculation and only 2% was detected in new growths of the root system. Plants which were grown in soil infested with ABPS 121 or K-60 had both strains present at variable populations along all sections of roots. 相似文献

Some properties of a virus-like agent found in Brachypodium sylvaticum in the United Kingdom 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
A spherical virus–like agent ($$32 nm in diameter) was isolated from a plant of Brachypodium sylvaticum (Huds.) Beauv. growing in a botanic garden in England and showing yellow streaks in the leaves. The agent was readily purified and sedimented as a single component in sucrose density rate gradients. The particles had a sedimentation coefficient at infinite dilution of $$122S and a buoyant density of 1.35 g/cm3 in CsCl and 1·33 in CS2 SO4 . The particles were stable at acid pH but above pH 7·0 in the presence of EDTA dissociated. A protein having a major polypeptide with a molecular weight of $$3·76 × 104 and a species of single stranded RN A with a MW of 1·67 × 106 were detected in the particles. The agent was not transmitted by manual inoculation, by the insects Myzus persicae Sulzer, Rhopalosiphum padi L. or Nephotettix virescens Distant, through soil by leakage from roots or by seed. The particles had physicochemical properties in common with tombus– and sobemoviruses but were not serologically related to 10 members of these groups or to 57 other small spherical RNA plant viruses. 相似文献

Methods to assess light leaf spot ( Pyrenopeziza brassicae ) on winter oilseed rape cultivars were compared in laboratory, controlled-environment and field experiments. In controlled-environment experiments with seedling leaves inoculated at GS 1,4, the greatest differences in percentage area affected by P. brassicae sporulation were observed with inoculum concentrations of 4 × 103 or 4 × 104 spores mL−1 , rather than 4 × 102 or 4 × 105 spores mL−1 , but older leaves had begun to senesce before assessment, particularly where they were severely affected by P. brassicae . In winter oilseed rape field experiments, a severe light leaf spot epidemic developed in 2002/03 (inoculated, September/October rainfall 127·2 mm) but not in 2003/04 (uninoculated, September/October rainfall 40·7 mm). In-plot assessments discriminated between cultivars best in February/March in 2003 and June in 2004, but sometimes failed to detect plots with many infected plants (e.g. March/April 2004). Ranking of cultivar resistance differed between seedling experiments done under controlled-environment conditions and field experiments. The sensitivity of detection of P. brassicae DNA extracted from culture was greater using the PCR primer pair PbITSF/PbITSR than using primers Pb1/Pb2. P. brassicae was detected by PCR (PbITS primers) in leaves from controlled-environment experiments immediately and up to 14 days after inoculation, and in leaves sampled from field experiments 2 months before detection by visual assessment. 相似文献

Epidemics of bean rust ( Uromyces appendiculatus ) and their effects on host dynamics of common bean ( Phaseolus vulgaris ) were studied in three controlled greenhouse experiments, with and without fungicide sprays, on two susceptible bean cultivars, Dufrix and Duplika. Bean plants were artificially inoculated with a suspension of 105 U. appendiculatus urediniospores mL−1 water and temporal disease progress, as well as host growth dynamics (leaf size and defoliation), were monitored on a leaflet basis in comparison with non-inoculated plants, which were sprayed with deionized water. Progress curves of bean rust, expressed as the proportion of leaf area occupied by pustules (uredinia), or as the proportion occupied by total lesion area (= halo areas + pustule area), were well described by logistic functions with maximum disease levels clearly lower than 1. Bean rust epidemics substantially affected host growth by reducing the total leaf area formed by 17·4–35·6% and 35·3–46·2% compared with healthy plants for cvs Dufrix and Duplika, respectively. Fungicide sprays mitigated the negative effect of bean rust, leading to a gain in leaf area of 17–21% compared with unsprayed plants in both cultivars in two experiments, while in another experiment, disease control had no effect in Dufrix, but a clear effect in Duplika. In addition to the growth depression, bean rust also led to pronounced losses of leaf area as a result of reduced leaf size (leaf shrivelling) and accelerated defoliation. 相似文献

Pitch canker, caused by the fungus Fusarium circinatum , is a disease affecting many pine tree species. In California, Pinus radiata (Monterey pine) is the principal pine host affected by pitch canker. This investigation into factors affecting infection frequency by F. circinatum of P. radiata examined the influence of: (i) wound size; (ii) relative humidity; (iii) time of inoculation; (iv) inoculum density; and (v) wound age. Wounded branches sustained significantly more infections when large-diameter (1·6 mm) rather than small-diameter (0·5 mm) wounds were made. Infection frequencies tended to be higher at 100% RH than at ambient humidity, although these differences were not statistically significant. Infection frequencies were significantly higher on branches inoculated after 17·00 h than on branches inoculated before noon. Infection frequencies were significantly higher for wounded branches spray-inoculated with 5 × 107 rather than 1 × 107 spores mL−1 . Infection frequencies of pruning wounds declined as wounds aged. 相似文献

The fungitoxicity of allyl-isothiocyanate (AITC) vapour against Penicillium expansum , the causal agent of blue mould on pears (cvs Conference and Kaiser), was evaluated. The best control of blue mould was obtained by exposing fruits for 24 h in a 5 mg L−1 AITC-enriched atmosphere, the extent of control depending on the inoculum density. Lesion diameter was inversely related to AITC concentration. In treated fruits the percentage of infected wounds increased with conidial concentration, with fewer than 20% affected at 1 × 103 conidia mL−1 to almost 80% at 1 × 106 conidia mL−1 . In comparison, >98% of wounds were infected in untreated fruits irrespective of conidial concentration. AITC treatments were effective up to 24 h after inoculation for Conference and 48 h for Kaiser. AITC treatments also controlled a thiabendazole-resistant strain of P. expansum , reducing the incidence of blue mould by 90% in both cultivars. The use of AITC produced from pure sinigrin or from Brassica juncea defatted meal may be an economically viable alternative to synthetic fungicides against P. expansum . 相似文献

The production of ascochitine by seven isolates of Ascochyta fabae accounted for the toxicity of culture filtrates of the fungus to cells isolated from leaves of Vicia faba. The LD50 value for cells from cultivars that were susceptible, tolerant or resistant to the fungus was similar i.e. 3·0 × 10−5 m , 3·8 × 10−5 m and 2·9 × 10−5 M, respectively. Ascochitine affected neither the germination of seeds nor the growth of mature plants at 5·17 × 10−4 m but caused necrosis and wilting of plant cuttings at 2·5 × 10−4 m and 5·10−4 m . There was no association between virulence of 16 isolates of A. fabae for three cultivars of V.faba and the production of ascochitine in vitro. One isolate produced no ascochitine in vitro and yet was the most virulent for two of three cultivars. The toxin could not be extracted from infected plants. 相似文献

Treatments with dicarboximide fungicides provided only 20 to 40% control of grey mould on grape (cv. Moscato d'Asti) in vineyards where benzimidazole and dicarboximide resistant strains ofBotrytis cinerea Pers. constituted about 50% of the fungal population and a high disease pressure existed. The percentage of dicarboximide resistant strains increased after treatment. Fungicide combinations of a benzimidazole with diethofencarb, sprayed twice per season or once alternated with a dicarboximide, provided satisfactory control of grey mould and decreased the percetage of benzimidazole resistant strains. A combination of thiram and procymidone controlled grey mould, but increased dicarboximide resistance in the population. 相似文献
