| composts containing fluorescent pseudomonads suppress fusarium root and stem rot development on greenhouse cucumber. | three composts (ball, dairy, and greenhouse) were tested for the ability to suppress the development of fusarium root and stem rot (caused by fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-cucumerinum) on greenhouse cucumber. dairy and greenhouse composts significantly reduced disease severity (p = 0.05), while ball compost had no effect. assessment of total culturable microbes in the composts showed a positive relationship between disease suppressive ability and total population levels of pseudomonads. in v ... | 2010 | 21076480 |
| comparison of in vitro activities of amphotericin, clotrimazole, econazole, miconazole, and nystatin against fusarium oxysporum. | the inhibitory activity of amphotericin b, clotrimazole, econazole, miconazole and nystatin was compared against fusarium oxysporum f.sp. radicis-cucumerinum. the most efficient antifungal agent against the growth of fusarium oxysporum was econazole, followed by clotrimazole, miconazole, amphotericin and nystatin. the ed50 and ed90 values were 0.053 and 1.002 ppm for econazole, 0.088 and 1.100 ppm for clotrimazole, 0.173 and 3.210 ppm for miconazole, 0.713 and greater than 48 ppm for amphoterici ... | 2001 | 11411855 |
| effect of novel water-soluble polymeric forms of sorbic acid against fusarium oxysporum f.sp. radicis-cucumerinum. | new controlled release water-soluble formulations of sorbic (2,4-hexadienoic) acid were prepared and their inhibitory activity on mycelium growth of fusarium oxysporum f.sp. radicis-cucumerinum was evaluated. the new products are epoxidized polymers of polyvinylpyrrolidone (pvp) containing covalently bonded sorbic acid (polymeric esters of sorbic acid) and complexes of pvp with hydrogen bonded sorbic acid, characterized by controlled release of sorbic acid. it was shown that the polymeric comple ... | 2000 | 11271842 |
| effects of mesophilic and thermophilic composts on suppression of fusarium root and stem rot of greenhouse cucumber. | three composts were tested for their ability to suppress root and stem rot caused by the soil borne fungal pathogen fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-cucumerinum (forc) on cucumber. two of the composts were prepared from separated dairy solids either by windrow (wds) or vermicomposting (vmc) while the third, obtained from international bio-recovery (ibr), was prepared from vegetable refuse using aerobic digestion. three sets of potting mixes were prepared by mixing the composts with sawdust at v ... | 2000 | 11109490 |
| effect of common food preservatives on mycelial growth and spore germination of fusarium oxysporum. | the growth and spore germination inhibition of fusarium oxysporum f.sp. radicis-cucumerinum by the common food additives: acetic acid, formic acid potassium sorbate, propionic acid, sorbic acid, and the fungistatic agent sec-butylamine was examined in vitro. the inhibitory efficacy of these chemicals decreased in the following order: sorbic acid, potassium sorbate, propionic acid, acetic acid, sec-butylamine and formic acid. at ph 6.4, the ed50 value for mycelium growth was: 976 ppm for sorbic a ... | 2000 | 10874628 |
