Lettuce cultivars adapted to Californian growing conditions were screened for resistance to fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lactucae in order to determine if differences in susceptibility among currently grown cultivars might contribute to management of this disease. Based on a preliminary evaluation of 46 cultivars, eight that were among the most resistant of their horticultural type (iceberg, romaine or leaf) were selected for further testing. The relative susceptibility of these cultivars was assessed by: (i) root-dip inoculation, (ii) sowing seeds into infested potting mix and (iii) transplanting seedlings into an infested field. Evaluations of disease severity showed that both methods (i) and (ii) produced cultivar rankings that were significantly correlated with rankings from field trials [method (iii)]. Two romaine and two leaf cultivars were highly resistant to fusarium wilt (mean disease severity rating of ≤1·3 on a 1–4 scale) under all test conditions. Other romaine and leaf cultivars, however, were highly susceptible in root–dip tests, so there was no consistent association between cultivar type and susceptibility to fusarium wilt. Likewise, there was considerable variation in susceptibility to wilt among iceberg cultivars, but all were significantly more susceptible than the most resistant romaine and leaf cultivars.  相似文献

Seventy isolates of Fusarium oxysporum (Schlechtend: Fr.) f. sp. melongenae Matuo and Ishigami (Fomg), the causal agent of eggplant Fusarium wilt, were tested for their interaction with different lines and cultivars to determine whether there was race-specific interaction. Also, a total of 13 cultivars were tested under greenhouse conditions to evaluate the presence of resistance to Fusarium wilt. The disease severity (%) and the area under disease progress curve (AUDPC) for each of the Fomg isolates were calculated by scale values. Results showed that neither of the resistant lines (LS1934 and LS2436) exhibited wilting symptoms, whereas susceptible local cultivars (cvs. ‘Kemer’ and ‘Hadrian’) displayed severe disease symptoms. There was no significant variation in the virulence, indicating the occurrence of a race or races among 70 Fomg isolates tested on resistant lines and susceptible cultivars. This may indicate a genetically homogeneous population structure of Fomg in Turkey. The eggplant cultivars Amadeo, Anatolia, Angela, Brigitte, Corsica, Hawk, Koksal, Nouma, Sharapova and Yula exhibited various degrees of susceptibility to three virulent Fomg isolates, but disease severity for AGR-703 was significantly different and lower among the tested eggplant cultivars, as well as rootstocks. Therefore, it is considered as the most appropriate for rootstock purposes in eggplant cultivations where Fusarium wilt is present in the soil.  相似文献

The severity of fusarium wilt is affected by inoculum density in soil, which is expected to decline during intervals when a non‐susceptible crop is grown. However, the anticipated benefits of crop rotation may not be realized if the pathogen can colonize and produce inoculum on a resistant cultivar or rotation crop. The present study documented colonization of roots of broccoli, cauliflower and spinach by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lactucae, the cause of fusarium wilt of lettuce. The frequency of infection was significantly lower on all three rotation crops than on a susceptible lettuce cultivar, and the pathogen was restricted to the cortex of roots of broccoli. However, F. oxysporum f. sp. lactucae was isolated from the root vascular stele of 7·4% of cauliflower plants and 50% of spinach plants that were sampled, indicating a greater potential for colonization and production of inoculum on these crops. The pathogen was also recovered from the root vascular stele of five fusarium wilt‐resistant lettuce cultivars. Thus, disease‐resistant plants may support growth of the pathogen and thereby contribute to an increase in soil inoculum density. Cultivars that were indistinguishable based on above‐ground symptoms, differed significantly in the extent to which they were colonized by F. oxysporum f. sp. lactucae. Less extensively colonized cultivars may prove to be superior sources of resistance to fusarium wilt for use in breeding programmes.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Transformation of plants with the nucleocapsid (N) gene of Tomato spotted wilt tospovirus (TSWV) provides resistance to disease development; however, information is lacking on the response of plants to natural inoculum in the field. Three tobacco cultivars were transformed with the N gene of a dahlia isolate of TSWV (TSWV-D), and plants were evaluated over several generations in the greenhouse. The resistant phenotype was more frequently observed in 'Burley 21' than in 'KY-14' or 'K-326', but highly resistant 'Burley 21' transgenic lines were resistant to only 44% of the heterologous TSWV isolates tested. Advanced generation (R(3) and R(4)) transgenic resistant lines of 'Burley 21' and a 'K-326' F(1) hybrid containing the N genes of two TSWV isolates were evaluated in the field near Tifton, GA, where TSWV is endemic. Disease development was monitored by symptom expression and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) analysis. Whereas incidence of TSWV infection in 'Burley 21' susceptible controls was 20% in 1996 and 62% in 1997, the mean incidence in transgenic lines was reduced to 4 and 31%, respectively. Three transgenic 'Burley 21' lines were identified that had significantly lower incidence of disease than susceptible controls over the two years of the study. In addition, the rate of disease increase at the onset of the 1997 epidemic was reduced for all the 'Burley 21' transgenic lines compared with the susceptible controls. The 'K-326' F(1) hybrid was as susceptible as the 'K-326' nontransformed control. ELISA analysis demonstrated that symptomless plants from the most resistant 'Burley 21' transgenic lines accumulated detectable nucleocapsid protein, whereas symptomless plants from more susceptible lines did not. We conclude that transgenic resistance to TSWV is effective in reducing incidence of the disease in the field, and that accumulation of transgene protein may be important in broad-spectrum resistance.  相似文献

 棉花品种抗黄萎病鉴定一般在田间病圃中进行,其结果受病圃中病原菌分布均匀程度、气象等因素影响极大,往往导致鉴定结果不准确。为了使鉴定方法简单、科学、可靠,我们在温室条件下比较了3种苗期接种棉花黄萎病的方法,即切根蘸孢子法(接种浓度为106分生孢子/mL);菌培养物土壤接种法(0.5%、1%、2%,w/w);微菌核土壤接种法(103个微菌核/g土)。结果表明,切根蘸孢子法导致棉苗发病均匀、严重、迅速,播种35~45 d后即可得到均匀一致的发病结果。而其它2种接种方法在播种75 d后才得到相对稳定的发病结果。同时,研究还表明接种浓度为104分生孢子/mL所导致的黄萎病显著比105或106的轻。利用切根蘸孢子法在室内鉴定12个棉花品种或品系的抗黄萎病能力,证明该方法是抗黄萎病快速鉴定的有效方法。此外,该鉴定方法还可快速鉴定黄萎病菌不同菌株的致病性,并可应用于作物对其它土传病害的抗病性鉴定上。  相似文献

To improve the breeding of chickpea varieties with resistance to Fusarium wilt, an attempt was made to analyse the biochemical basis of disease resistance by measuring levels of chitinase, β-1,3-glucanase, protease and proteinase inhibitor activities in dry and soaked seeds and in root and shoot tissues of wilt-resistant and wilt-susceptible cultivars. Marginal variation was observed in the levels of the candidate proteins in dry or soaked seeds. Chitinase activity was higher in roots than in shoots or cotyledons. No proteinase inhibitor activity was detected in root and shoot tissue of any of the cultivars. When the levels of these proteins were analysed in resistant (Vijay) and susceptible (JG-62) cultivars during development of wilt by growing plants in soil infested with F. oxysporum f.sp. ciceri , race 1, both cultivars showed induction of chitinase activity in the roots. However, the induced activity in JG-62 (3.82 U g−1) was equivalent to the constitutive level in Vijay (3.90 U g−1) and much lower than that induced in Vijay (5.18 U g−1). Induction of protease activity was observed only in root extracts of Vijay when challenged by the pathogen. The root extract of Vijay showed in vitro antifungal activity in a plate assay. Simultaneous induction of proteolytic and chitinolytic activities specifically in the resistant cultivar was correlated with antifungal properties of root extracts effective in conferring resistance.  相似文献

Field or greenhouse grown soybeans were treated with 2,6-dichloroisonicotinic acid or benzothiadiazole and subsequently assessed for severity of white mold disease caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Three or four applications of 2,6-dichloroisonicotinic acid to field plots in 1993–1995 reduced severity of white mold after natural infection by 20–70% compared with water-treated controls in soybean cultivars Elgin 87 and Williams 82, which are considered to be highly susceptible to the disease. The effect was not as large in the cultivars Corsoy 79 and NKS19-90 which are more resistant to white mold. Two or four applications of benzothiadiazole to field plots in 1995 and 1996 reduced white mold severity by 20–60%, with the greatest reductions again observed in the more susceptible cultivars. Corresponding yields were increased compared with controls, particularly for the susceptible cultivars under conditions of high disease pressure. In greenhouse trials multiple applications of either compound resulted in significantly smaller lesion diameters following subsequent leaf inoculations with the fungus. The compounds did not result in observable phytotoxicity or inhibit growth of Sclerotinia sp. in vitro. We hypothesize that the decrease in disease severity following treatment with INA or BTH is a result of resistance induction.  相似文献

Members of the Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC), causing potato bacterial wilt or brown rot, are highly contagious and there are no known cultivars with durable resistance to the pathogen. This study hypothesized (a) that crops intercropped or rotated with potato, plants in the same family, and plants grown in the neighbouring fields can host the pathogen and they can be potential sources of primary inoculum, and (b) that potato cultivars currently multiplied by the public tissue culture laboratory in Rwanda are less susceptible to the pathogen. Fourteen plant species and potato, and nine potato cultivars were tested for susceptibility to an RSSC phylotype II strain under greenhouse conditions. The bacteria induced symptoms on potato, tomato, tree tomato, sweet pepper, and eggplant only. Among the plant species with symptoms, potato, tomato, and tree tomato wilted completely. There was a significant difference in days to symptom expression and to complete wilting (p < .0001). While all tested potato cultivars were found to be susceptible, the number of days to first symptom expression, days to complete wilting, area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC), and the number and weight of harvested tubers varied considerably. Cultivars Cruza, Kinigi, and CIP-58 were less susceptible whereas the cultivars Gikungu, Kirundo, and Victoria were highly susceptible. There is a strong need to search for other sources of resistance. The results indicate that some plant species that might serve as a reservoir of the bacterium should be avoided in the vicinity of potato crops.  相似文献

ABSTRACT Colonization of watermelon root and stem tissues by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. niveum race 1 and its relationship to the apparent resistance to Fusarium wilt was investigated. In each of 2 years, 17 differentially susceptible watermelon cultivars and one accession were tested in the greenhouse, and 7 cultivars also were tested in the field. Colonization by a chlorate-resistant marked isolate of the fungus was assayed by plating homogenized tissue samples on a selective medium. Six days after inoculation, seedlings of highly resistant, moderately resistant, and susceptible cultivars had F. oxysporum f. sp. niveum race 1 CFU counts in the lower stems of 10(2), 10(3), and 10(4) CFU/g of fresh tissue, respectively. Percent wilt (Y) of the seedlings was positively correlated with colonization (X) by F. oxysporum f. sp. niveum race 1 in roots (Y = 21.2 ln [X + 1] - 140.7, R(2) = 0.85) or lower stems (Y = 17.3 ln [X + 1] - 78.6, R(2) = 0.86). Percent wilt (Y) also was correlated with the ratio (X(r), 0 to 1 values) of lower stem to root colonization (Y = 34 ln X(r) + 112, R(2) = 0.36). Field evaluations confirmed these relationships, and a link between cultivar resistance and a reduced rate of spread of the fungus in primary stems during a season was observed. Fruit yield decreased with increased tissue colonization at linear rates of 9.9 to 12.7 t/ha per ln (CFU/g + 1) (R(2) >/= 0.58). The greenhouse seedling stem colonization assay described may be utilized as a collaborative method to quantify Fusarium wilt resistance in watermelon.  相似文献

Natural recovery from wilt disease symptoms was evaluated in young olive trees root dip inoculated with Verticillium dahliae in a growth chamber over a 12 week period and, later on, when the trees were transplanted in a V. dahliae-free soil in a lathhouse during a period of 127 weeks. Recovery in an individual tree was considered when a plant showed symptom remission after having reached a maximum value of symptom severity. Recovery accounted for 53% of 464 trees that showed wilt symptoms during observations in the two environments. The remaining trees died. Recurrent wilt symptoms were not observed in recovered trees, and recovery was usually accompanied by the production of new green tissues. Recovery was clearly higher in trees inoculated with a non-defoliating (ND) isolate (86.4%) of the pathogen than in those inoculated with a defoliating (D) isolate (23.9%). The percentage of recovery and the level of resistance were significantly correlated. Recovery accounted for 92.1% of the cases in resistant and moderately susceptible cultivars, reaching 100% in plants inoculated with the ND isolate (Table 2); meanwhile it was three times lower (30.1% of the plants) in susceptible and extremely susceptible diseased trees. In the lathhouse, periodical tissue isolations for monitoring the progress of infections over a period of 127 weeks in recovered trees, showed that the pathogen could only be isolated from trees 19 weeks after inoculation. Pathogen isolation was significantly higher from susceptible and extremely susceptible cultivars (84.6%) than from resistant and moderately susceptible ones (33.3%). Results showed that if a tree overcomes infection by pathogen from a single inoculation, and it is able to begin a recovery process, it will not express wilt symptoms again in a pathogen-free environment. The pathogen remained inactive or dead over time in recovered trees. Thus, new infections from rootlets would be necessary for new symptom expression. Recovery from Verticillium wilt is an important natural mechanism that occurs in a high percentage of infected olive trees, and can complement the resistance of the cultivar, particularly in conditions of low inoculum densities of low virulence isolates of the pathogen in the soil.  相似文献

The incidence of wilt was recorded in runner and fruiting crops of 13 strawberry cultivars at 72 locations in southern England in 1989 and 1990, and soil samples from the sites were analysed for Verticillium dahliae . Linear regressions of wilt incidence on inoculum concentration in soil for runner crops of the susceptible cv. Elsanta in both years were significant whilst that for runner crops of the susceptible cv. Hapil in 1989 approached significance; the regression for cv. Elsanta fruiting crops in 1990 was not significant. The inclusion of sand content of soil in the regression model improved the fit for the cv. Hapil data but not for the cv. Elsanta data; neither clay nor silt content of soil significantly improved the fit of the models for any data set. There were insufficient data in either year for regression analysis for other cultivars, but the levels of wilt generally corresponded with the degree of soil infestation and broadly reflected known field resistance. The data were used to estimate an inoculum concentration which corresponds to 5% wilt incidence (IC5) for cv. Elsanta. It is suggested that this could be used as a yardstick for determining the risk of unacceptable levels of wilt in susceptible cultivars on the basis of pre-planting soil analysis.   For the 44 sites where the cropping history over the 15 years prior to soil analysis was available there was no clear association between any crop and soil infestation levels at or above the IC5. However, V.  dahliae was more common at sites with a history of vegetatively propagated crops than at sites which had only supported crops grown from true seed.  相似文献

The resistance of 28 Spanish olive cultivars to Verticillium dahliae was evaluated in an experiment conducted under greenhouse conditions, by impregnating plant roots with a semisolid fluid mass of a mixture of culture medium and the conidia and mycelium of the fungus. Five-month-old olive plants were inoculated with a cotton defoliating isolate of V. dahliae. ‘Frantoio’ and ‘Picual’ were used as resistant and susceptible reference cultivars, respectively. Cultivars were assessed on the basis of final values of the area under the disease progress curve, mean severity of symptoms, and mortality at 26 weeks following inoculation. Verticillium wilt disease developed more slowly and reached lower values of these parameters than those normally recorded in previous studies conducted in growth chambers, using root-dip inoculation in a conidial suspension of the pathogen. However, most of the evaluated cultivars exhibited susceptible or moderately susceptible reactions to the infections caused by V. dahliae. In particular, a group of eight cultivars, from the same group as ‘Picual’, such as ‘Manzanilla de Abla’, ‘Manzanilla del Centro’ and ‘Negrillo de Iznalloz’, were significantly more susceptible than ‘Frantoio’. Conversely, ‘Escarabajillo’, ‘Menya’ and ‘Sevillana de Abla’ exhibited a high level of resistance to the disease, no dead plants, and vegetative recovery. Field experiments are currently being carried out to confirm the level of resistance assigned to these last genotypes. If confirmed, these genotypes will act as potential resistant genitors for inclusion in current olive breeding programs or for use as resistant rootstocks.  相似文献

A rapid glasshouse‐based bioassay method to screen large numbers of cotton plants for responses to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. vasinfectum (Fov) was developed. Different Fov inoculum concentrations and methods of inoculation were assessed using resistant and susceptible cotton cultivars. Cotton seeds were planted directly into Fov‐inoculated soil. Studies of seed germination, seedling establishment, seedling mortality and fusarium wilt symptoms (i.e. stunting, foliar symptoms and vascular browning) were performed to optimize the bioassay parameters. Growing seedlings in Fov‐inoculated soils at 5 × 104 or 1 × 105 CFU g?1 soil, in individual seedling tubes with 12 h at 28–30°C and 12 h at 15–18°C, gave consistent results when assessing Fov disease responses 6 weeks after inoculation. When fusarium wilt resistance ranks (FWRRs) and vascular browning index (VBI) means of 18 Australian and other cotton cultivars from the Fov glasshouse bioassay were compared against their fusarium field performance ranks (F‐ranks), assessed on adult plants for cotton cultivar release, Pearson’s correlation was highly significant for both comparisons. The level of congruence between field and glasshouse data indicated that this protocol should be an effective tool for large‐scale screening for Fov‐resistance responses in diverse germplasm and breeding populations and for advancing genetic research to develop molecular markers for Fov resistance in cotton.  相似文献

 棉花抗枯萎病品种86-1、陕1155,感病品种岱15、徐州142。在棉幼苗三叶期用采自河南王屯的棉枯萎菌7号小种接种,接种后12小时,各抗病品种的葡萄糖、核糖含量显著增加,而感病品种则相反。接种后抗病品种的苯丙氨酸解氨酶(PAL)活性峰出现早于感病品种,相对酶活值也高于感病品种。接种后抗病品种蛋白质含量出现先低后高趋势,感病品种则始终保持较高水平。木质素含量的增加与棉花品种抗病性存在正相关性。伴随着PAL活性的增加,木质素含量也迅速增加。结果表明,棉花品种对枯萎病的抗性与PAL活性有密切关系,并通过代谢最终产物之一的木质素的增加得到表达。  相似文献

Currently, the most effective and economically feasible means of controlling Verticillium wilt is to grow wilt-resistant cultivars. Nevertheless, resistant germplasm lines that are able to overcome this detrimental disease remain rare. Hence, we aimed to identify high-quality germplasm lines that exhibit high resistance, to address the dearth in optimum production. Our field and greenhouse studies showed significant variation among all tested germplasm lines with respect to wilt-assessment parameters. Highly resistant or resistant germplasm included 1421Bt-4133, O Siv2, Arcot-1, and GP93; Zhong 21371 and Yumian 2067 were moderately responsive; and Arcot402bne, Arcot438, Xinluzao-3, and Jimian11 were highly susceptible to wilt. Overall, germplasm line 1421Bt-4133 appeared to be an ideal material with strong resistance potential against V. dahliae. The germplasm lines O Siv2, Arcot-1, GP93, Zhong 21371, and Yumian 2067 showed variability in resistance potential in artificially or naturally-infested soil. This variability may be due to the genetic potential of the plants and to the adaptability of V. dahliae. We determined that the 1421Bt-4133 germplasm line was ideal, as it demonstrated resistance diversity against V. dahliae in all observed wilt-assessment parameters. The results of this study contribute to the understanding of viable germplasm lines for improving cotton production. The resistant germplasm lines uncovered in this study may provide new disease resistance sources in the breeding program.  相似文献

Soil drench and stem puncture inoculation were compared as methods for selecting cocoa cultivars with resistance to Verticillium dahliae. Disease progress was more rapid and induced symptoms were more severe following stem puncture and, under glasshouse conditions, differences between cultivars were detected 15 days after inoculation. Moreover, using stem puncture, inoculum densities of 104 conidia/ml were sufficient to differentiate resistant and susceptible cultivars, whereas with the soil drench method, inoculum densities of 107 conidia/ml were necessary. Although a substantially higher proportion of plants were affected by stem puncture inoculation, the resistance of cultivar Pound-7 remained effective at high inoculum densities of 108 conidia/ml. With either method, older seedlings were more susceptible to V. dahliae than younger ones. However, with stem puncture, 15-day-old seedlings were sufficiently susceptible for a valid disease assessment. In contrast, with soil inoculation, 60-day-old plants were required. In a nursery trial with 15-day-old seedlings, seven cocoa genotypes previously selected as resistant, moderately resistant or susceptible to Verticillium dahliae , on the basis of root inoculation, were ranked in the same order when stem punctured. Stem puncture inoculation of young seedlings is cost-effective in terms of time and space, and is therefore recommended for screening of cocoa for wilt resistance, especially in large-scale breeding programmes.  相似文献

Ten tomato cultivars, from the USA, Taiwan and French Antilles, were compared for resistance to bacterial wilt as measured by disease and pathogen population invasiveness and density in the stem at the collar and midstem regions. On the basis of disease incidence, cultivars ranked from highly susceptible to totally resistant. By contrast, no significant difference was observed in bacterial population in wilting plants, regardless of the cultivar. All symptomless plants were latently infected at the collar level. Percentage of symptomless plants with bacteria at the midstem level was significantly correlated with the degree of resistance; the more resistant, the lower the stem colonization. Restriction of Pseudomonas solanacearum invasiveness in the vascular tissues of the stem is associated with resistance properties in tomato. This observation may be useful in developing improved criteria for selecting stable resistance to the disease.  相似文献

A study was carried out in microplots to evaluate the effect of fly ash on the plant growth and yield of tomato cultivars, Pusa Ruby, Pusa Early Dwarf and New Uday, and on wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici . Fly ash was applied to soil by broadcast or in rows at the rate of 1, 2, 3 and 4 kg ash m-2 in place of inorganic fertilizers. In control plots, NPK (about 40 : 20 : 20 kg acre-1) and compost were added in place of fly ash. Ash application greatly increased the soil contents of P, K, B, Ca, Mg, Mn, Zn, carbonates, bicarbonates and sulphates. Plants grown in the ash-treated plots, especially at 3 or 4 kg dose, showed luxuriant growth and greener foliage, and plant growth and yield of the three cultivars were significantly increased in comparison with the plants grown in plots without fly ash. The wilt fungus, F. oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici at the inoculum level of 2 g plant-1 caused significant suppression of growth and yield in all three cultivars. Application of fly ash, however, checked the suppressive effect of the fungus, leading to a significant increase in the considered variables compared with the inoculated control. Soil population of the fungus (colony-forming units g soil-1) gradually decreased with an increase in ash dose. Row application was found to be relatively more effective in enhancing the yield of tomato cultivars and suppressing the wilt disease. The greatest increase in the yield of fungus inoculated and uninoculated plants due to broadcast or row application at 3 or 4 kg ash m-2 was recorded in tomato cv. Pusa Ruby (39 - 61 and 9 - 24%), followed by Pusa Early Dwarf (31 - 61 and 17 - 34%) and New Uday (21 - 35 and 4 - 22%).  相似文献

ABSTRACT The influence of varying environmental and cropping conditions including temperature, light, soil type, pathogen isolate and race, and cultivar of tomato on biological control of Fusarium wilt of tomato by isolates of nonpathogenic Fusarium oxysporum (CS-20 and CS-24) and F. solani (CS-1) was evaluated in greenhouse and growth chamber experiments. Liquid spore suspensions (10(6)/ml) of the biocontrol isolates were applied to soilless potting mix at the time of tomato seeding, and the seedlings were transplanted into pathogen-infested field soil 2 weeks later. Temperature regimes ranging from 22 to 32 degrees C significantly affected disease development and plant physiological parameters. Biocontrol isolate CS-20 significantly reduced disease at all temperature regimes tested, yielding reductions of disease incidence of 59 to 100% relative to pathogen control treatments. Isolates CS-24 and CS-1 reduced disease incidence in the greenhouse and at high temperatures, but were less effective at the optimum temperature for disease development (27 degrees C). Growing plants under shade (50% of full light) versus full light affected some plant growth parameters, but did not affect the efficacy of biocontrol of any of the three bio-control isolates. Isolate CS-20 effectively reduced disease incidence (56 to 79% reduction) in four different field soils varying in texture (sandy to clayey) and organic matter content (0 to 3.2%). Isolate CS-1 reduced disease in the sandy and loamy soils (49 to 66% reduction), but was not effective in a heavy clay soil. Both CS-1 and CS-20 were equally effective against all three races of the pathogen, as well as multiple isolates of each race (48 to 66% reduction in disease incidence). Both isolates, CS-1 and CS-20, were equally effective in reducing disease incidence (66 to 80% reduction) by pathogenic races 1, 2, and 3 on eight different tomato cultivars containing varying levels of inherent resistance to Fusarium wilt (susceptible, resistant to race 1, or resistant to races 1 and 2). These results demonstrate that both these Fusarium isolates, and particularly CS-20, can effectively reduce Fusarium wilt disease of tomato under a variety of environmental conditions and have potential for further development.  相似文献
