Host-range dynamics of Cochliobolus lunatus: from a biocontrol agent to a severe environmental threat. [PDF]

Biomed Res Int, 2014
We undertook an investigation to advance understanding of the host‐range dynamics and biocontrol implications of Cochliobolus lunatus in the past decade. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L) farms were routinely surveyed for brown‐to‐black leaf spot disease caused by C. lunatus. A biphasic gene data set was assembled and databases were mined for reported hosts

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 ...

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,

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.

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.
