| verticillium fungicola var. fungicola affects agaricus bisporus cultivation in mexico. | verticillium fungicola is responsible for dry bubble disease of the button mushroom agaricus bisporus. investigations performed in 2001 showed that mushroom cultures were affected by v. fungicola var. aleophilum in north american farms whereas they were affected by v. fungicola var. fungicola in european farms. the latter variety was not found in north america. studies carried out on verticillium isolates collected in mexico in 2002 revealed that they belong to the variety fungicola. the hypothe ... | 2004 | 15251196 |
| molecular and physiological diversity among verticillium fungicola var. fungicola. | the genetic and physiological variability of verticillium fungicola var. aleophilum responsible for agaricus bisporus dry bubble disease in north america is well documented but little is known about the var. fungicola affecting european crops. variability was assessed within this variety and compared with that reported for the var. aleophilum. eighteen isolates of v. fungicola var. fungicola and four var. aleophilum isolates were analysed for dna polymorphism, mycelial growth, response to bioche ... | 2006 | 16616837 |
| in vitro sensitivity of verticillium fungicola to selected fungicides. | twenty isolates of verticillium fungicola var. fungicola collected from diseased fruit-bodies of agaricus bisporus from prochloraz-treated crops, were exposed to a range of concentrations of six chemicals (benomyl, chlorothalonil, formaldehyde, iprodione, prochloraz-mn-complex and prochloraz + carbendazim) in vitro. ec(50) values were determined for each fungus-fungicide combination. all isolates were more sensitive to prochloraz-mn-complex (ec(50) values less than 5 mg 1(-1)) than to the remain ... | 1996 | 20882460 |
