Pests and diseases affecting potato landraces and bred varieties grown in Peru under indigenous farming system [PDF]
The major pests and diseases were identified and quantified on thirteen potato landraces and three bred varieties cultivated in Peru. Late blight (Phytophthora infestans) was the primary biotic constraint affecting plants before flowering with an average

First Report of Rhizoctonia solani Associated with Black Scurf of Potato Tubers in Lesotho
Rhizoctonia solani is considered a destructive and widely distributed soil borne pathogenic fungus causing black scurf on potato tubers globally. Morphological, microscopic characteristics and virulence studies were done on ten R. solani isolates isolated from four districts of Maseru, Thaba-tseka (Mantsónyane), Quthing and Berea representing three ...

Efficacy of selected Pseudomonas strains for biocontrol of Rhizoctonia solani in potato
Thirty seven bacterial isolates from faba bean (Vicia faba L.) root-nodules were screened for their antagonistic activity against eight Rhizoctonia solani strains isolated from infected potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tubers.
