Phomopsis convolvulus Ormeno is being evaluated as a possible bioherbicide for field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis L.) control. A granular barley formulation was applied pre-emergence onto the soil surface of pots containing pregerminated field bindweed seeds. Covering the pots with transparent plastic bags immediately after application increased disease incidence and resulted in up to 81% reduction in above-ground dry biomass, whereas a treatment of interrupted dew periods (8 h day-1) for six days, resulted in only 56% biomass reduction. The size of container used for producing and for incubating the fungus granules had no significant effect on disease incidence and subsequent weed control of field bindweed. Likewise, no significant differences in efficacy were observed using inoculum that was milled once and then sieved or repeatedly milled and non-sieved. For early application dates, the use of two different planting substrates led to major differences in disease development. Pre-emergence application of inoculum on the surface of field collected soil on the same day that field bindweed seeds were planted resulted in an 81% mortality of seedlings emerging. In contrast, only 50% of emerging seedlings were killed when inoculum was applied on the surface of peat moss. Findings in this study indicate that moisture conditions and planting substrate may affect disease incidence and subsequent control of field bindweed by pre-emergence application of the selective fungal pathogen, P. convolvulus.  相似文献

Interference of Sinapis arvensis L. (wild mustard) and Chenopodium album L. (lamb's-quarters) in spring rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) was studied under field conditions in 1983 and 1984. Both weed species interfered with rapeseed early in the growing season, causing significant reductions in rapeseed dry weight by June of each year. Sinapis arvensis caused greater rapeseed grain yield reductions than did C. album. With weed densities of 20–80 plants m?2, rapeseed grain yield reductions ranged from 19 to 77% with S. arvensis but only 20 to 25% with C. album. Rapeseed yield reductions caused by mixtures of both weed species ranged from being less than to being equal to the sum of reductions caused by each weed alone, depending on the weed density and year of study. Both weed species were prolific seed producers capable of returning large quantities of seed to the soil. With weed densities ranging from 10–80 plants m?2, S. arvensis produced 5700–30 100 seeds m?2 while C. album produced 3100–63 600 seeds m?2.  相似文献

Size, germination and viability of seeds as well as growth of seedlings derived from three weed species were studied in a pot trial. Fallopin convolvulus (L.) A. Loeve, Galium. spurium L. and Thlaspi arvense L. were treated with MCPA or tribenuron-methyl at four doses and at five growth stages, from seedling stage to flowering, In G. spurium subnormal doses of tribenuron-methyl, applied at intermediate growth stages, greatly reduced seed weight, gennination, viability, seedling shoot biomass and root biomass. Germination and viability, as well as the shoot biomass and root biomass of seedlings, were highly correlated with seed weight. In addition, but to a smaller extent, seed weight was reduced in F. convolvidus and T. arvense by tribenuron-methyl and in G. spurium by MCPA. Germination was reduced in F. convolvulus by MCPA and in T. arvense by tribenuron-methyl. However, the effects varied greatly depending on the growth stage at application.  相似文献

The pattern and extent of 14C-glyphosate [N-(phosphonomethyl)glycine] translocation from the treated leaf and metabolism of 14C-glyphosate were studied in field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis L.), hedge bindweed (Convolvulus sepium L.). Canada thistle [Cirsium arvense (L.) Scop.] tall morning glory [lpomoea purpurea (L.) Roth.] and wild buckwheat (Polygonum convolvulus L.). 14C was translocated throughout the plants within 3 days with accumulation in the meristematic tips of the roots and shoots evident. Cross and longitudinal sections of stems and roots showed that the 14C was localized in the phloem. Field bindweed translocated 3–5% of the applied 14C from the treated leaf, hedge bindweed 21.6%, Canada thistle 7.8%, tall morningglory 6.5%, and wild buckwheat 5%. Field bindweed, Canada thistle, and tall morningglory metabolized the parent glyphosate to aminomethylphosphonic acid to a limited extent. This metabolite made up less than 15% of the total 14C. Of the total 14C applied to excised leaves, 50% had disappeared within 25 days.  相似文献

The dose-response, foliar uptake, translocation and metabolism of the methylheptyl ester (MHE) of fluroxypyr were examined in lambs-quarters (Chenopodium album L.), wild buckwheat (Polygonum convolvulus L.), Canada thistle (Cirsium arvense L. Scop.) and field bindweed (Convolvulus arvensis L.). Under controlled environment growth room conditions, E50 values, determined from shoot dry weights of the susceptible species, wild buckwheat (16 g ha?1) and field bindweed (40 g ha?1), were markedly different than those of the tolerant species, lambsquarters (331 g ha?1) and Canada thistle (800 g ha?1). Regardless of species, more than 80% of applied [14C]fluroxypyr-MHE was absorbed by foliar surfaces 120 h after treatment. Translocation of radioactivity out of the treated leaves of susceptible species was significantly greater than that of tolerant species. For example, 120 h after treatment with [14C]-fluroxypyr-MHE, the proportion of applied radioactivity translocated in tolerant Canada thistle and lambsquarters was 15 and 10%, respectively, whereas in susceptible wild buckwheat and field bindweed it was 41 and 40% of applied radioactivity, respectively. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) of plant extracts indicated four distinct chroma-tographic peaks common to all four species. More fluroxypyr was recovered in the susceptible species (70%) than in the tolerant species (30%), 120 h after application. Selectivity differences between the tolerant and susceptible species may be the result of enhanced metabolic transformation of the herbicide to more polar, non-phytotoxic compounds with limited mobility within the tolerant species. Les bases de la sélectivité du fluroxypyr La courbe dose effet, la pénétration foliaire, la migration et le métabolisme de Tester méthyle-heptyle (MHE) du fluroxypyr ont étéétudiés chez le chénopode blanc (Chenopodium album L.), la renouée faux-liseron (Polygonum con-vulvulus L.), le chardon des champs (Cirsium arvense L. Scop.) et le liseron des champs (Convolvulus arvensis L.). En conditions de crois-sance contrôlées, les valeurs ED50, déterminées à partir du poids de matière sèche des parties aériennes étaient nettement différentes chez les plantes sensibles et chez les plantes résistan-tes:renouée faux-liseron, 16 g ha?1; liseron des champs, 40 g ha?1; chénopode blanc, 331 g ha?1; chardon des champs, 800 g ha?1. Quelle que soit 1'espèce, plus de 80% du [14C]fluroxypyr-MHE pénétrait dans les feuilles en 120 h. La migration de la radioactivité hors des feuilles traitérs était significativement plus importante chez les plantes sensibles que chez les plantes tolérantes. Par exemple, 120 h après le traite-ment avec du [14C]fluroxypyr-MHE, la proportion de radioactivité appliquée qui avait migré dans le chardon des champs et le chénopode, tolérants, était respectivement 15 et 10%, alors que chez la renouée faux-liseron et le liseron des champs, sensibles, elle était respectivement 41 et 40%. Des analyses par HPLC des extraits de plantes montraient quatre pics chro-matographiques distincts dans chacune des quatre espèces. Davantage de fluroxypyr était retrouvé 120 h après 1'application chez les plantes sensibles que chez les plantes résistantes (70% contre 30%). Les différences de sensibilité entre espèces pourraient être dues chez les plantes tolérantes à un métabolisme plus important de l'herbicide en composés plus polaires, non phytotoxiques et peu mobiles. Grundlagen für die selektive Wirkung von Fluroxypyr Die Dosis/Wirkungs-Beziehung, Blattaufnahme, Translokation und Metabolismus des Methylheptyl-Esters (MHE) von Fluroxypyr wurden bei Weißem Gänsefuß (Chenopodium album L.), Gemeinem Windenknöterich (Polygonum convolvulus L.), Acker-Kratzdistel (Cirsium arvense (L.) Scop.) und Gemeiner Ackerwinde (Convolvulus arvensis L.) untersucht. Unter den kontrollierten Umweltbedingungen eines Phytotrons wurden anhand des Trockengewichts die ED50-Werte bestimmt, die bei den empfindlichen Arten Polygonum convolvulus mit 16 g ha?1 und Convolvulus arvensis mit 40 g ha?1 sich deutlich von denen der toleranten Arten Chenopodium album mit 331 g ha?1 und Cirsium arvense mit 800 g ha?1 unterschieden. Unabhängig von der Art waren mehr als 80 % der Aufwandmenge von [14C]-Fluroxypyr-MHE durch die Blattoberflächen 120 h nach der Behandlung aufgenommen. Die Translokation der Radioaktivität aus den behandelten Blättern war bei den empfindlichen Arten signifikant größer als bei den toleranten. Z. B. waren 120 h nach der Behandlung bei den toleranten Arten Cirsium arvense und Chenopodium album 15 bzw. 10 % der Radioaktivität transloziert, während es bei den empfindlichen Arten Polygonum convolvulus und Convolvulus arvensis 41 bzw. 40 % waren. Bei allen 4 Arten ergab eine HPLC-Untersuchung der Pflanzenextrakte 4 distinkte Peaks. Bei den empfindlichen Arten wurde 120 h nach der Anwendung mit 70 % mehr Fluroxypyr wiedergefunden als bei den toleranten (30 %). Die Selektivitätsunterschiede zwischen den toleranten und empfindlichen Arten könnten auf einen beschleunigten Metabolismus des Herbizids zu stärker polaren, nichphytotoxischen Stoffen mit eingeschränkter Mobilität bei den toleranten Arten zurückgeführt werden.  相似文献

The effect of sub-lethal chlorsulfuron treatment of the annual weed Polygonum convolvulus L. on growth and survival of the folivorous beetle Gastrophysa polygoni L. was studied in a controlled environment. Treated and untreated plants were used in whole plant bioassays and in feeding experiments with excised leaves. Direct insect toxicity of the herbicide was studied by use of a Potter Spray Tower. The herbicide was non-toxic to the larvae when applied topically. Larvae fed excised leaves from treated plants did not differ from larvae fed leaves from control plants in terms of developmental time, weight or survival. This suggests that the treatment did not affect the nutritional value of the plant or at least that the beetles could compensate for any such changes. Chlorsulfuron reduced survival of larvae living on whole plants treated with sub-lethal dosages (8 to 67% of the recommended field rate). The mortality of larvae in whole plant experiments was dependent on herbicide dosage and herbivore load. Mortality ranged from approximately 20% on control plants to a maximum of 80% on plants sustaining the highest dosages and herbivore loads. It is argued that the beetles' response to chlorsulfuron-treated plants could be caused by a herbivore-induced plant response enhanced by the action of chlorsulfuron.  相似文献

ABSTRACT The fungal plant pathogen Microsphaeropsis amaranthi is a candidate bioherbicide for the control of weedy Amaranthus species since it grows and sporulates readily in culture, is a pathogen of a number of important weed species, and is host-restricted to the family Amaranthaceae. This study was designed to determine the optimum and limiting environmental conditions for the efficacy of foliar applications of M. amaranthi for the control of common waterhemp. The greatest disease severity and the greatest plant biomass reductions were found when a prolonged leaf wetness period of >/= 12 h at 18 to 24 degrees C was provided after application. Disease severity and plant biomass reductions were greater when plants were treated at an earlier stage of development. Disease severity and impact were limited when shorter leaf wetness periods were provided, with negligible disease observed on plants provided with 相似文献

Competition between winter-sown wheat and Viola arvensis Murray or Papaver rhoeas L. was studied in two experiments in two successive years. The effects of varying crop and weed density were modelled in terms of weed biomass over time, weed seed production and crop yield. Biomass model parameters, representing maximum weed biomass and intra- and interspecific competition, were obtained for different assessment dates, enabling biomass levels to be predicted during the two growing seasons. Weed biomass declined, and its maximum level was reached earlier, with increasing crop density. Intraspecific competition was higher in the absence than in the presence of crop, increasing with time and with weed density. Halving the wheat population increased June biomass of V. arvensis by 74% and of P. rhoeas by 63%. Crop yield losses with increasing weed density were greater with low than with medium and high crop populations. P. rhoeas was significantly more competitive than V. arvensis in both years. Weed biomass in 1989 responded more to reductions in crop density following the milder winter of 1988/89 than in the previous year; however crop yields were less affected in 1989 due to summer drought, restricting late weed growth and competition. Weed seed production was related to weed biomass; the progressive lowering of crop density increased seed production, and both species were very prolific in the absence of crop. By combining models, seed production could be derived for a given competitive effect on the crop. Threshold weed populations, based on low weed levels that are not economic to control, could then be equated with the accompanying weed seed production.  相似文献

Dry fungal biomass ofPenicillium chrysogenum (dry mycelium), a waste product of the pharmaceutical industry, was extracted with water and applied to the roots of melon plants before or after inoculation withFusarium oxysporum f.sp.melonis (Font). Seedlings (4–6 days after emergence) treated with either acidic dry mycelium extract (DME) or neutralized dry mycelium extract (NDME) were protected against challenge infection withFom. A single drench with 2–5% DME applied 12–72 h before inoculation provided significant control of the disease compared with water-drenched, challenged seedlings. No protection was seen in plants treated 0–6 h before inoculation or 0–48 h after inoculation. Neither DME nor NDME (0.5–5%) had any effect on fungal growthin vitro, which implied that disease controlin vivo was mediated by induced resistance. The resistance induced by DME protected melon plants not only against race 1,2, but also against the three other races of the pathogen, indicating a race-non-specific resistance againstFom. Both DME and NDME significantly increased peroxidase activity and free L-proline content in seedlings 12 h and 48 h after soil drench, respectively. Resistance to Fusarium wilt was significantly associated with elevated levels of peroxidase activity but not with free L-proline content. Thus, peroxidase might be involved in the defense mechanisms activated by DME or NDME. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting Aug. 31, 2001.  相似文献

The seed production of Fallopia convolvulus (L.) A. Love, Galium spurium L, and Thlaspi arvense L., treated with MCPA or tribenuron-methyl, was studied in a pot experiment. The herbicides were applied in doses from 1/16 to 1/l of a full dose at five different growth stages. The largest reduction of seed production was observed on plants treated when one true leaf had developed (F. convolvulus, both herbicides) or at the beginning of the generative phase (G. spurium treated with tribenuron-methyl and T. arvense treated with either herbicide). Tribenuron-methyl (0.375 g a.i. ha?1) or MCPA (0.1875 kg a.i. ha?1) applied at bolting stage was enough to reduce the seed production of T. arvense by 83% and 100%, respectively. The seed production of F. convolvulus, treated with 0.75 kg MCPA at the cotyledon stage, was reduced by 70%. Plants of G. spurium with 5–9 axillary shoots, treated with 3 g tribenuron-methyl, produced 45% fewer seeds than the control. Both herbicides (at least at the highest doses) reduced seed production of all three species more than shoot dry matter.  相似文献

Experiments were conducted in a controlled environment growth room to compare the phytotoxicity of five formulations of clopyralid and to determine the effect of post-treatment simulated rainfall applications on the efficacy of these formulations. Clopyralid, formulated as the acid, monoethanolamine salt, potassium salt, 2-ethylhexyl ester or 1-decyl ester was applied to Cirsium arvense or Polygonum convolvulus at the 8–10 and 4–6 leaf stage of development, respectively. Based on the shoot and root dry weight data from both species, the 2-ethylhexyl ester was consistently less phytotoxic than the other four formulations. With respect to Cirsium arvense shoot and root dry weight, there was no difference in efficacy between the acid, monoethanolamine salt, potassium salt and 1-decyl ester. Root dry weight changes of Polygonum convolvulus did not correlate well with an increase in dose of the five formulations. Maximum increase in stem diameter of Polygonum convolvulus occurred after application of 100 g a.e. ha?1 of the acid, monoethanolamine salt, potassium salt and 1-decyl ester whereas with the 2-ethylhexyl ester, the maximum increase occurred after application of 200 g a.e. ha?1. Simulated rainfall was applied 3, 6, 9 or 12 h after application of 200 g a.e. ha?1 of the five clopyralid formulations to both species. Rainfall reduced the efficacy of clopyralid, regardless of the formulation or species. The 2-ethylhexyl ester was less efficacious than the other four formulations, irrespective of the timing of simulated rainfall.  相似文献

Although adult Rumex obtusifolius are problematic weeds, their seedlings are poor competitors against Lolium perenne, particularly in established swards. We investigated the possibility of using this weakness to augment control of R. obtusifolius seedlings with combinations of Gastrophysa viridula (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) and the rust fungus Uromyces rumicis. Rumex obtusifolius seedlings were grown in competition with L. perenne sown at different rates and times after R. obtusifolius: they competed successfully with L. perenne when sown 21 days before the grass. Sowing both species at the same time resulted in a dominant grass sward, with R. obtusifolius becoming dominant when sown 42 days prior to L. perenne. Grass sowing rate had no effect on R. obtusifolius growth or biomass. A second experiment investigated how competition from L. perenne sown 21 days after R. obtusifolius combined with damage from G. viridula and/or U. rumicis (applied at either the 3–4‐ or 10–13‐leaf stage, or at both stages) affected the growth and final biomass of R. obtusifolius. Beetle grazing at the latter leaf stage was the only treatment that reduced R. obtusifolius biomass, although rust infection at the earlier application led to an increase in shoot and root weight. The results are discussed in terms of the potential for use of these agents in the field.  相似文献

DPX-A7881, methyl 2-[(4-ethoxy-6-methyl-amino-1, 3, 5-triazin-2-yl)carbamoylsulphanoyl] benzoate, is a sulfonylurea herbicide being developed in Canada and Europe for post-emergence broadleaf weed control in spring and winter rapeseed. Growth room studies were conducted to determine the environmental factors affecting the herbicidal activity of DPX-A7881 applied post-emergence on winter rapeseed (Brassica napusu L. ‘Tandem’) and on a closely related weed species, Sinapis arvensis L. (wild mustard). Laboratory tests were carried out at tempera tures ranging from 2–26°C, at relative humidities from near 40% to >95%, with rain-free periods from 0.25–8 h after herbicide application, at soil moisture contents from 50–200% of field capacity, and with irradiances from 23–450 μEm?2s?1 Significant control of S. arvensis was demonstrated for all treatments except under poor growing conditions at the lowest temperatures and irradiances tested. After two weeks' exposure to each of the tem perature treatments, the herbicide maintained control of S. arvensis during a subsequent week of favourable growing conditions. Relative humidity, soil moisture or simulated rainfall did not significantly alter the herbicidal activity of DPX-A7881 on S. arvensis. DPX-A7881 showed a high degree of crop safety on B. napus. The herbicide did not significantly reduce the dry weights of B. napus grown under any of the environmental conditions tested.  相似文献

Effects of the herbicide chlorsulfuron on growth and reproduction of black bindweed (Polygonum convolvulus L.) plants were investigated in a controlled environment chamber and a greenhouse over a full life cycle. Biomass of P. convolvulus was stimulated at 0.4 g a.i. ha?1, but at higher doses it was reduced compared with controls. Leaf production of plants treated with 1.6 g a.i. ha?1 was initially totally inhibited, but these plants resumed leaf production 10 days after treatment. Chlorsulfuron treatment resulted in higher proportions of small and large leaves compared with controls. Because the life-span of the plants increased with increasing doses of chlorsulfuron, seed production was not affected at doses up to 1.6 g ha?1, even though significant effects were found on both biomass and leaf production. At rates of 1.6–4 g a.i. ha?1 seed production decreased. Plant mortality was low in this study, reaching 33% at the highest rate of chlorsulfuron. Effets sublétaux du chlorsulfuron sur la renouée faux-liseron (Polygonum convolvulus L.) Les effets du chlorsulfuron sur la croissance et la reproduction de la renouée faux-liseron (Polygonum convolvulus L.) ont étéétudiés en serre et en conditions controlées sur un cycle complet. La biomasse de P. convolvulusétait stimulée à 0,4 g m.a. ha?1 mais à doses plus élevées elle était réduite par rapport à celle des témoins. La production de feuilles de plantes traitées à 1,6 g m.a. ha?1était initialement totalement inhibée mais ces plantes reprenaient leur production de feuilles 10 jours après le traitement. Les plantes traitées au chlorsulfuron avaient une plus grande proportion de feuilles petites et grandes que les témoins. Comme la durée de vie des plantes s'accroissait avec la dose de chlorsulfuron, la production de graines n'était pas affectée jusqu'à la dose 1,6 g m.a. ha?1, meme si des effets significatifs étaient détectés sur la biomasse et la production de feuilles. À des doses comprises entre 1,6 et 4 g m.a. ha?1, la production de graines diminuait. La mortalité des plantes était faible dans cette étude, atteignant 33%à la plus haute dose de chlorsulfuron. Subletale Wirkungen von Chlorsulfuron auf den Gemeinen Windenknoterich (Polygonum convolvulus L.) In Ecophyt- und Gewachshausversuchen zur Wirkung von Chlorsulfuron auf Wachstum und Reproduktion des Gemeinen Windenknoterichs (Polygonum convolvulus L.) war die Biomassebildung bei 0,4 g AS ha?1 verstarkt, bei hoheren Dosen jedoch verringert. Bei 1,6 g AS ha?1 war die Blattentwicklung zunachast fur 10 Tage nach der Behandlung ganzlich unterdruckt. Der Anteil kleinerer und großerer Blatter war hoher. Mit zunehmendem Aufwand des Herbizids verlangerte sich der Entwicklungszyklus, so daß bis zu 1,6 g AS ha?1 die Samenproduktion nicht zuruckging, trotz signifikanter Wirkung sowohl auf die Biomasse als auch auf die Blattbildung. Bei Dosen Uber 1,6 bis 4,0 g AS ha?1 wurden weniger Samen gebildet. Die Absterberate war bei diesen Versuchen niedrig und betrug bei der hochsten Chlorsulfuron-Dosis 33%.  相似文献

The uptake, movement and metabolism of fluroxypyr* is compared in two contrasting weed species, Stellaria media (susceptible) and Viola arvensis (moderately resistant). Similar rates of uptake occurred in both species, with a rapid cuticular uptake of 50% of that applied within 4 h. Total uptake by the underlying leaf tissue reached 66.6% and 70.8% in S. media and V. arvensis after 7 days. In translocation studies, in which 14C-fluroxypyr was applied to previously sprayed plants, 5.1% of applied 14C-activity was translocated from the treated leaves of S. media after 1 day, which increased to 42.2% after 7 days, recovered mainly from the stem tissue. In V. arvensis translocation was similar after 24 h however, after 7 days over 40% of applied 14C-activity remained in the treated leaves and only 9.7% was translocated, mainly to the developing leaves and apical tissue. 14C-activity extracted from the cuticle was the methylheptyl ester of fluroxypyr in both species. In the treated leaves and apical tissue, 14C-activity was the free acid of fluroxypyr and polar conjugates with a significantly greater proportion of the acid in S. media. It is concluded that the resistance or V. arvensis is partially due to reduced translocation and greater conjugation than in the susceptible S. media.  相似文献

Brandsæter LO, Fogelfors H, Fykse H, Graglia E, Jensen RK, Melander B, Salonen J & Vanhala P (2010). Seasonal restrictions of bud growth on roots of Cirsium arvense and Sonchus arvensis and rhizomes of Elymus repens. Weed Research 50 , 102–109.

Summary

The success of weed management aimed at depleting the regenerative structures of perennial weeds depends largely on the sprouting activity of rhizome and root buds. Seasonal variation in sprouting of these buds on Cirsium arvense, Sonchus arvensis and Elymus repens was studied for plants collected from Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. At 2‐week intervals from July to October, 5‐cm fragments of roots or rhizomes were cut from plants grown in buckets and planted into soil in pots, half of which were placed immediately into growth chambers at 18°C for 4 weeks. The other half of the pots were initially placed in a dark room at 2°C for 4 weeks before being transferred to the same growth chamber, also for 4 weeks. During the growth chamber period, the numbers of emerged shoots in each pot were counted weekly. The sprouting activity of C. arvense and E. repens was relatively uniform during this period and bud dormancy was not apparent. In all ecotypes of S. arvensis, innate bud dormancy developed during the latter part of the growing season. For all three species, differences in sprouting readiness were found among ecotypes. The results imply that C. arvense and E. repens are more likely to be controlled by mechanical measures in autumn than S. arvensis.  相似文献

Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis is a very important pathogen that causes bacterial wilt of tomato (BWT). Biological control of plant diseases is a critical tool for protecting the environment from chemical pollution. Twenty-five isolates of the genus Trichoderma were obtained from a healthy tomato root. Of the 25 isolates, KABOFT4 showed highly antagonistic activity that controlled the growth of C. michiganensis subsp. michiganensis (Cmm7) under in vitro conditions. The 5.8S ribosomal RNA gene and internal transcribed spacer identified the isolate as Trichoderma harzianum KABOFT4. The effect of this isolate as a soil drench and/or foliar application on bacterial wilt under greenhouse conditions was studied. The germination percentage of tomato seed treated with KABOFT4 increased by 36.7% compared to infected seed treated with only the pathogen Cmm7. Under greenhouse conditions, tomato seedlings treated with KABOFT4 as a soil drench, foliar and soil treatment, and foliar treatment had a 61.3, 26.7, and 40% reduced disease severity relative to the infected control, respectively. All treatments had a positive effect on tomato plants that presented as greater vegetative growth and accumulation of dry matter. The best fresh and dry weight was recorded when plants were treated with KABOFT4 as a soil and foliar application. Tomato plants treated with KABOFT4 also had increased total phenol and flavonoid contents in inoculated and non-inoculated plants compared to untreated plants. Under greenhouse conditions, T. harzianum strains can be used as an environmentally friendly way to manage the most economically important tomato disease. The results showed that a native endophytic strain of T. harzianum was a potent biocontrol agent against C. michiganensis subsp. michiganensis. Application of this strain to tomatoes in the greenhouse resulted in a decrease in disease severity and an increase in crop biomass.

Weight loss in overwintering below‐ground parts of perennial weeds has been attributed to respiration, but neither its temperature dependence nor its relevance for biomass dynamics under changing climate conditions have been investigated. In two experiments, we quantified weight loss of the perennial weed Sonchus arvensis, by measuring weight changes over time of sprouting roots in dark rooms at temperatures of 4, 8 and 18°C. Dry weight loss rates were 0.47, 0.64 and 1.47% day?1 at 4, 8 and 18°C, respectively, giving a half‐life time of 149, 110 and 47 days, respectively. A factor by which weight loss rates increase for every 10° rise in temperature (Q10) was equal to about 2.3. Cumulative weight loss may comprise >40% of the below‐ground biomass during overwintering periods. Applying weight loss rates and Q10 to elevated soil temperature projections showed that losses during winter seasons in central Sweden will remain basically constant, the effect of increased weight loss at higher temperatures being balanced by shorter winters. This implies that need for control of S. arvensis in a changing climate will persist, but that shorter winter seasons will provide a longer time window for control of S. arvensis prior to sowing crops.  相似文献

The main viticultural production areas in Spain were surveyed in 1994, 1995 and 1996 for the occurrence and incidence of Grapevine Yellows diseases associated to phytoplasmas. Samples from 300 plants showing symptoms of phytoplasma infection were collected from grapevine fields in the Spanish regions of Aragón, Catalonia and Navarra and analysed by PCR with specific primers for a non-ribosomal DNA of stolbur/Bois Noir (BN) and of Flavescence dorée (FD) phytoplasma. Nested PCR with universal primers P1/P7 and fU5/rU3 was also used. In the survey conducted in 1994 and 1995 only BN/stolbur phytoplasma was detected. The incidence of symptomatic plants was low in five plots of Catalonia from 3% to 18% in 1994 and 1995, respectively, and high in two plots of Navarra, from 60% to 80%. In the survey conducted in 1996 the incidence of symptomatic plants in Catalonia increased (6–80%) due to the presence of FD in five plots in the Northeastern Catalonia. An epidemiological study was carried out in two BN-affected plots of two regions from 1994 to 1997, with the evaluation of potential vectors and of host plants. The stolbur phytoplasma was found in individuals from different insect species belonging to the families Cicadellidae and Delphacidae. Some wild plants naturally infected with stolbur phytoplasma around the infected grapevines were: Convolvulus arvensis, Lavandula officinalis, Polygonum convolvulus, Solanum nigrum, and Thymus officinalis. The incidence of the disease in one BN-infected grapevine plot increased from 3.4% in 1994 to 18.40% in 1997.  相似文献

A survey of grass weeds of cereals in central southern England made in 1981 was repeated in 1982 between 28 June and 23 July. Dicotyledonous weeds were also assessed in 1982. A total of 1021 fields were surveyed, 702 in winter wheat. 198 in winter barley and 121 in spring barley. A total of twenty-four grass weeds were found and their levels of infestation were scored. The most frequently found grass weeds were the same as in 1981. In all cereals combined, these were Elymus (Agropyron) repens in 35% of fields, Avena fatua in 32%, Alopecurus myosuroides in 26% and Poa trivialis in 24%. Sixty-three species of dicotyledonous weeds were recorded and of these, eighteen species occurred in 2% or more of fields. The eight most frequent were Viola arvensis, Galium aparine, Stellaria media, Myosotis arvensis, Polygonum aviculare, Convolvulus arvensis, Bilderdykia (Polygonum) convolvulus and Lamium purpureum. Most species were fairly uniform in distribution, but Galium aparine, Convolvulus arvensis and Cirsium arvense were most frequent in the east while Viola arvensis was least frequent there. The cereals varied in weediness, 32% of winter barley, 23% of spring barley and only 7% of winter wheat fields had no weeds recorded.  相似文献
