| fusarium ananatum sp. nov. in the gibberella fujikuroi species complex from pineapples with fruit rot in south africa. | pineapple (ananas comosus) is native to south america and widely planted as a fruit crop in the tropics and sub-tropics. this plant is susceptible to a number of fungal diseases of which the most severe is fusariosis. the disease is caused by fusarium guttiforme and occurs only in south and central america. the occurrence of a similar disease on pineapples in south africa has prompted a re-evaluation of the fusarium sp. associated with pineapple fruit rot. phylogenetic relationships of isolates ... | 2010 | 20943163 |
| Candida krusei and Kloeckera apis inhibit the causal agent of pineapple fusariosis, Fusarium guttiforme. | Studies based on microbial ecology and antagonistic interactions play an important role in the development of new alternative strategies in controlling plant pathogens and are relevant to further biotechnological applications. Antagonistic interactions between the yeasts Candida krusei and Kloeckera apis isolated from rotten pineapple fruits, and two isolates of the pathogenic filamentous fungus Fusarium guttiforme (Syn.: Fusarium subglutinans f. sp. ananas) resistant and susceptible to fungicid ... | 2011 | 22115444 |
| new insights for diagnosis of pineapple fusariosis by maldi-tof ms technique. | fusarium is one of the most economically important fungal genus, since it includes many pathogenic species which cause a wide range of plant diseases. morphological or molecular biology identification of fusarium species is a limiting step in the fast diagnosis and treatment of plant disease caused by these fungi. mass spectrometry by matrix-assisted laser/desorption ionisation-time-of-flight (maldi-tof)-based fingerprinting approach was applied to the fungal growth monitoring and direct detecti ... | 2016 | 27117163 |
