interaction of four antagonistic fungi with botrytis aclada in dead onion leaves: a comparative microscopic and ultrastructural study. | abstract the colonization of dead onion leaves by botrytis aclada and the fungal antagonists aureobasidium pullulans, chaetomium globosum, glio-cladium catenulatum, and ulocladium atrum and the interactions between b. aclada and each of the four antagonists were studied at the microscopic and ultrastructural level. this approach was used in an attempt to understand the colonization pattern of these fungi and the nature of the biocontrol activity of the antagonists that have shown a potential to ... | 1997 | 18945082 |
biocontrol agents efficiently inhibit sporulation of botrytis aclada on necrotic leaf tips but spread to adjacent living tissue is not prevented. | ulocladium atrum (isolates 385 and 302) consistently inhibited botrytis aclada sporulation on dead onion leaf pieces under constant moist conditions and with an interrupted wetness period of 9 h. clonostachys rosea (isolate 201) was as effective as u. atrum under constant moist conditions, but was ineffective if exposed to a drying period. no sporulation of b. aclada was observed 8 and 12 days after inoculation in the presence of u. atrum 302. c. rosea 201 significantly reduced b. aclada sporula ... | 2004 | 19712318 |
universally primed polymerase chain reaction alleles and internal transcribed spacer restriction fragment length polymorphisms distinguish two subgroups in botrytis aclada distinct from b. byssoidea. | abstract fifty-one isolates representing the four botrytis spp. associated with onion neck rot were clustered by unweighted pair group method with arithmetic mean based on universal-primed polymerase chain reaction (up-pcr) fingerprints. bootstrap analysis of the consensus phenogram clearly demonstrated five strong clusters among the four botrytis spp.: b. cinerea (c), b. squamosa (s), b. byssoidea (b), and b. aclada (ai and aii). subdivision of the 30 b. aclada isolates, ai (14) and aii (16), f ... | 2001 | 18943940 |
a chloride tolerant laccase from the plant pathogen ascomycete botrytis aclada expressed at high levels in pichia pastoris. | fungal laccases from basidiomycetous fungi are thoroughly investigated in respect of catalytic mechanism and industrial applications, but the number of reported and well characterized ascomycetous laccases is much smaller although they exhibit interesting catalytic properties. we report on a highly chloride tolerant laccase produced by the plant pathogen ascomycete botrytis aclada, which was recombinantly expressed in pichia pastoris with an extremely high yield and purified to homogeneity. in a ... | 2011 | 22178779 |
