pathological relationship of ditylenchus dipsaci and fusarium oxysporum f. sp. medicaginis on alfalfa. | ditylenchus dipsaci and fusarium oxysporum f. sp. medicaginis synergistically affected the mortality and plant growth of ranger alfalfa, a cultivar susceptible to stem nematode and fusarium wilt. the nematode-fungus relationship had an additive effect on mortality and plant growth of lahontan (nematode resistant and fusarium wilt susceptible) and of moapa 69 (nematode susceptible and fusarium wilt resistant). mortality rates were 13, 16, 46, and 49% for ranger; 4, 18, 26, and 28% for lahontan; a ... | 1990 | 19287729 |
stem nematode-fusarium wilt complex in alfalfa as related to irrigation management at harvest time. | a high moisture level in the top 10 cm of soil at time of cutting of alfalfa increased the incidence of plant mortality and fusarium wilt in soil infested with ditylenchus dipsaci and fusarium oxysporum f. sp. medicaginis in greenhouse and field microplot studies. ranger alfalfa, susceptible to both d. dipsaci and f. oxysporum f. sp. medicaginis, was less persistent than moapa 69 (nematode susceptible and fusarium wilt resistant) and lahontan alfalfa (nematode resistant with low fusarium wilt re ... | 1992 | 19283002 |
