Efficacy of granular Pesta mucilage formulation of Fusarium oxysporum for biological control of Egyptian broomrape Phelipanche aegyptiaca (Pers.) Pomel. in tomato fields [PDF]

Journal of Crop Protection
One of the employed formulations in the biological control of broomrape is the application of a Pesta granular formulation using semolina, sucrose, and kaolin. In this study, the efficacy of Pseta granular formulation of Fusarium oxysporum by using 3, 5,

Population genetic structure and marker–trait associations in East and West African Striga hermonthica with varying phenotypic response to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. strigae isolates Foxy‐2 and FK3

The Plant Journal, Volume 104, Issue 2, Page 391-402, October 2020., 2020
SUMMARY To examine the genetic basis for the variable susceptibility of Striga hermonthica from differing zones of sub‐Saharan Africa to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. strigae (Fos) isolates Foxy‐2 and FK3, 10 S. hermonthica populations from Eastern and Western Africa were phenotyped for their susceptibility response to Foxy‐2 and FK3, and then genotyped ...

Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms: Uses, Challenges, Threats, and Prospects

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Water hyacinths pose serious challenges to humanity and the environment. Considering the enormity of the menace associated with the growth and spread of the plant and the difficulty in achieving a single, generally acceptable control method, it is becoming increasingly imperative to explore the potentials of the plant.

Mycoherbicides: Opportunities for genetic manipulation

Pesticide Science, 1989
AbstractPossibilities of using genetic manipulation to improve the effectiveness of mycoherbicides are discussed. Particular emphasis is given to fungal genes involved in the production of specialised structures essential for colonisation and reproduction in pathogenesis and in regulating pathogen specificity.

In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation of Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) Genotypes for Pre‐ and Post‐attachment Resistance against Witchweed (Striga asiatica L. Kuntze)

International Journal of Agronomy, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) production in sub‐Saharan Africa is seriously constrained by both biotic and abiotic stresses. Among the biotic stresses is witchweed (Striga spp.), a noxious parasitic weed causing major damage in cereal crops, such as sorghum.

Differential gene expression for Curvularia eragrostidis pathogenic incidence in crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis) revealed by cDNA-AFLP analysis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Gene expression profiles of Digitaria sanguinalis infected by Curvularia eragrostidis strain QZ-2000 at two concentrations of conidia and two dew durations were analyzed by cDNA amplified fragment length polymorphisms (cDNA-AFLP).

The influence of the carbohydrate levels on viability of Stagonospora cirsii drying mycelium

BIO Web of Conferences, 2020
The Stagonospora cirsii mycelium is considered as the infectious basis of a potential mycoherbicide for the control of Canadian thistle and perennial sow thistle. Successful commercialization of mycoherbicides is often constrained by poor drying survival.

Role and In Vivo Localization of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. strigae and Bacillus subtilis in an Integrated Striga hermonthica Biocontrol System

PhytoFrontiers, 2021
To improve the efficiency of Striga hermonthica biological control in the context of an integrated biocontrol system, the role/impact of coinoculating the mycoherbicide Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. strigae (Fos) with a plant growth promoting rhizobacterium,
