The inhibition of mycelial growth of Lagenidium giganteum by neem oil was lower than that of Metarhizium anisopliae in PYG and Emerson’s YpSs agar media. However, neem oil did not inhibit the mycelial growth of L. giganteum in sunflower seed extract agar medium, but did it inhibit the mycelial growth of M. anisopliae. The minimum inhibitory concentration of neem oil for L. giganteum was higher than that for M. anisopliae. The minimum fungicidal concentration of neem oil in PYG medium was lower than in YpSs for both fungi. The spores of L. giganteum grown in SFE medium could be used with neem oil for vector control. 相似文献

Investigations were carried out to evaluate the efficacy of biocontrol agents (Paecilomyces lilacinus and Cladosporium oxysporum) and/or oil cakes of castor, linseed, groundnut, mahua and neem in the management of root knot nematode, Meloidogyne javanica infecting eggplant under glasshouse conditions. All the treatments effectively suppressed the nematode population and kept the infection at significantly low level. Individual treatment of P. lilacinus was more effective than C. oxysporum in controlling M. javanica, whereas among oil cakes individual treatment of neem was more effective in the management of M. javanica followed by linseed cake, castor cake, groundnut cake and mahua cake. However, the efficacy of biocontrol agents increased in the presence of oil cakes. The highest improvement in plant growth and best protection against M. javanica was obtained by the integration of P. lilacinus with groundnut cake followed by neem cake, linseed cake, castor cake and mahua cake. On the other hand the integration of C. oxysporum with neem cake followed by groundnut cake, linseed cake, castor cake and mahua cake gave the best results in managing M. javanica on eggplant. 相似文献

Verticillium balanoides mycelial growth was stimulated on solid corn meal agar (1.7 %) and in liquid corn meal broth (0.2 %) upon the addition of phospholipids at various concentrations. Sporulation differed with phospholipid products and was highest in pure corn meal. Drechmeria coniospora mycelial growth increased upon addition of phospholipids at all concentrations in solid or liquid culture. Sporulation increased at high concentration (1000 ppm) and decreased at low concentration (100 ppm) of phospholipids in the medium. For both fungi, infectivity of conidia produced in liquid culture decreased when compared to conidia from parasitized nematodes. Addition of phospholipids partly restored this effect. Harposporium anguillulae mycelial growth and sporulation was not affected by addition of phospholipids to solid or liquid corn meal medium. 相似文献

Beauveria bassiana is being used as a biopesticide for many insect pests. Neem oil (azadirachtin) is an eco-safe popular botanical pesticide. A biopesticde with a neem compatible isolate of B. bassiana will enable their simultaneous use in pest management. A sample of 30 isolates of B. bassiana from culture collections was screened for compatibility with a commercial formulation of neem oil (Margoside®) at the field recommended dose (0.3%, v/v). Compatibility was tested in vitro through germination and growth assays. In all isolates, conidial germination was delayed but not significantly decreased by neem. In the growth assays, 23 isolates were found compatible with neem. In the neem sensitive isolates, growth was decreased but not totally inhibited. The effect of combined treatment with B. bassiana and neem in comparison to single treatments with either of them on Spodoptera litura Fabricius was tested in laboratory bioassays. The combined treatment was found to have synergistic effect on insect mortality when a B. bassiana isolate compatible with neem was used, while, with an isolate sensitive to neem, an antagonistic effect was observed. 相似文献

Yam is an important crop which serves as a source of income to small-holder farmers as well as a foreign exchange earner. Among the constraints faced by yam farmers are pests and diseases, especially deterioration caused by microbes during storage. Since over dependence on pesticides is being discouraged, neem seed and ginger extracts were evaluated as potential control agents against rot-causing fungi. The study was conducted in the Spanish laboratory, at the Faculty of Agriculture, University for Development Studies, Nyankpala Campus. Isolations were made from rotted yam tubers sampled from the Tamale Central market with potato dextrose agar (PDA) as the growth medium. Growth inhibition of the isolates was determined by growing pure cultures on PDA plates amended with 2?ml each of ethanol and aqueous extracts of neem seed and ginger as well as carbendazim. A pathogenicity test proved that Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. ochraceus and Penicillium digitatum isolated from the rotted tubers were responsible for the rot. A. niger had a significantly higher (p?<?0.05) occurrence (40%) than the others. Growth inhibitions by carbendazim and ethanol extracts of neem seed and ginger were comparable but significantly higher (p?<?0.05) than the aqueous extracts of neem seed and ginger as well as the control. However, the aqueous extracts of neem seed and ginger had a significantly higher (p?<?0.05) inhibition than the control. For instance, growth inhibition of A. niger by carbendazim, ethanol neem seed and ginger extracts were 70.5, 69.6 and 65.5%, respectively, while inhibition by aqueous neem seed and ginger extracts were 33.9 and 24.8%, respectively. Since aqueous extracts of neem seed and ginger significantly inhibited (p?<?0.05) growth of the rot-causing fungi, they can be used as surface protectants of stored tubers. 相似文献

A survey of soils from 39 different locations from 12 states of India for the presence/absence of Catenaria anguillulae indicated a wide distribution of the fungus in Indian soils. Out of 490 soil samples, 451 yielded C. anguillulae. Further, it was also noted that the fungus is present throughout the year in soils from the different locations irrespective of soil types and crops grown. This is the first report of this kind on distribution of C. anguillulae from India. 相似文献

A study, conducted with 20 isolates of Microsporum ferrugineum and 12 isolates of Trichophyton soudanense, revealed that some of the discrepancies in the literature regarding their characteristics and differentiation were due to methodology, strain variation and the use of an insufficient number of isolates. We found all isolates of T. soudanense to be urease negative and gelatinase positive (usually by the first week); to produce brown to black colonies on Lowenstein-Jensen medium; to rapidly decompose casein and more slowly tyrosine; to grow well or better at 37°C as compared to room temperature; to produce reflexive branching on cornmeal Tween agar and abundant microconidia on casero medium and to exhibit no sexual reaction with either mating type of Arthroderma simii. All but one isolate demonstrated restricted growth on lactose agar and only three isolates perforated hair.In contrast, we found 18 of 20 isolates of M. ferrugineum to be urease positive in urea broth (most isolates were negative on urea agar); all produced light-colored colonies on Lowenstein-Jensen medium; spreading colonies on lactose agar and failed to perforate hair in vitro or to produce reflexive branching. Most isolates manifested poorer to no growth at 37°C compared to room temperature and all but one failed to decompose casein and tyrosine. A few strains produced macroconidia and/ or microconidia on casero medium and some reacted sexually with A. simii (a) or (–) mating type. Gelatin hydrolysis was variable.We suggest the following key tests to differentiate M. ferrugineum from T. soudanense: urease activity in urea broth; colony color on Lowenstein-Jensen medium; growth on lactose agar; growth at 37° C compared to room temperature; presence of reflexive branching on cornmeal Tween agar. 相似文献

Very little is known about the capacity of soil chytrids to withstand freezing in the field. Tolerance to freezing was tested in 21 chytrids isolated from cropping and undisturbed soils in temperate Australia. Samples of thalli grown on peptone–yeast–glucose (PYG) agar were incubated for seven days at −15 °C. Recovery of growth after thawing and transferring to fresh medium at 20 °C indicated survival. All isolates in the Blastocladiales and Spizellomycetales survived freezing in all tests. All isolates in the Chytridiales also survived freezing in some tests. None of the isolates in the Rhizophydiales survived freezing in any of the tests. However, some isolates in the Rhizophydiales recovered growth after freezing if they were grown on PYG agar supplemented with either 1 % sodium chloride or 1 % glycerol prior to freezing. After freezing, the morphology of the thalli of all isolates was observed under LM. In those isolates that recovered growth after transfer to fresh media, mature zoosporangia were observed in the monocentric isolates and resistant sporangia or resting spores in the polycentric isolates. Encysted zoospores in some monocentric isolates also survived freezing. In some of the experiments the freezing and thawing process caused visible structural damage to the thalli. The production of zoospores after freezing and thawing was also used as an indicator of freeze tolerance. The chytrids in this study responded differently to freezing. These data add significantly to our limited knowledge of freeze tolerance in chytrids but leave many questions unanswered. 相似文献

Valdensinia heterodoxa (Sclerotiniacae) is a potential fungal bioherbicide for control of salal (Gaultheria shallon). The effect of culture media, substrates and relative humidity (RH) on growth, sporulation and conidial discharge of V. heterodoxa was determined for two isolates PFC2761 and PFC3027 in vitro. Culture media significantly affected the growth, sporulation, and conidial discharge of V. heterodoxa. Of eight agar media used, colony radial growth was optimal on salal oatmeal agar and salal potato dextrose agar for isolates PFC2761 and PFC3027, respectively; whereas sporulation was at an optimum on salal oatmeal agar for both isolates. Of the eight liquid media tested, mycelial production was highest on wheat bran–salal–potato dextrose broth. Growth on solid substrates greatly stimulated sporulation and conidial discharge of V. heterodoxa. Of the 12 solid substrates used, the greatest numbers of discharged conidia were observed from wheat bran and wheat bran–salal within 14 d of sporulation. Sporulation on solid substrates continued for 42 d. RH significantly affected the sporulation and conidial discharge for both isolates across all solid substrates tested. No conidia were produced or discharged below 93 % RH on wheat bran–salal and millet. With an increase of the RH from 93 to 97 %, sporulation and the number of discharged conidia increased significantly for both isolates on wheat bran–salal, but not on millet. 相似文献

Aspergillus flavus isolated from naturally infected leaf-eating caterpillar (Opisina arenosella W.), lace bug (Stephanitis typica D.) and plant hopper (Proutista moesta Westwood), insect pests of the coconut palm, were tested for aflatoxin (AT) production by employing various media formulations.
These A. flavus isolates were earlier found to be entomopathogenic in laboratory bioassays. A laboratory contaminant and four standard aflatoxigenic
A. flavus isolates were also included in this study as reference strains. All A. flavus isolates were tested on seven AT detection media: coconut extract agar, coconut extract-sodium desoxycholate agar, coconut
extract-ascorbic acid agar, coconut extract-Czapek Dox agar, coconut extract-milk powder agar, 10% commercial coconut milk
powder agar (CCMPA) and 20% CCMPA. Only two isolates of A. flavus, originally isolated from O. arenosella and P. moesta, produced ATs. AT production was detected within 48 h of incubation and was detected continually up to 1 month. These AT-producing
A. flavus isolates also produced bright yellow pigmentation in the medium. Of all the seven media used for AT detection, CCMPA (10%)
was found to be the best one, followed by 20% CCMPA, for direct and rapid AT detection. AT production was not necessary for
pathogenicity in the insects.

Summary Root-colonizing pseudomonads capable of inhibiting seedling winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) root growth in an agar seedling bioassay also significantly inhibited wheat root growth in vermiculite; however, the inhibitory trait is quite labile in laboratory culturing. The extent of inhibition in both the agar and vermiculite medium depended on inoculum level. These pseudomonads were found to produce a toxin capable of inhibiting growth ofEscherichia coli C-la andBacillus subtilis. Field isolates that strongly inhibit growth of indicator bacteria also inhibited root growth. Toxin production by the bacteria appeared necessary for inhibition of root growth and indicator bacteria as toxin-negative (TOX–) mutants no longer inhibited either. Antibiosis towardsE. coli as well as wheat seedling root inhibition in agar was reversed by L-methionine, providing further evidence that a toxin, produced by these organisms, is involved in growth retardation.Contribution in cooperation with the College of Agric.

Low-density seedings of yeast cells ofParacoccidioides brasiliensis give poor growth (as assessed by plating efficiency test) on conventional mycological agar media, and therefore growth-promoting
factors for this fungus were sought. Water-extracts of yeast cells of sixP. brasiliensis isolates were all considerably effective in promoting the growth of low-density seedings ofP. brasiliensis isolates Pb-18 and Hachisuga, but had little effect on isolate Bt-4. Horse serum, at a concentration range of 2–4%, moderately
or considerably promoted the growth of theseP. brasiliensis isolates. Combinations of the fungus cell extracts with horse serum were highly effective in promoting the growth of all
of the fungal isolates. The fungus cell extracts showed siderophore (microbial iron carrier) activity. An iron-chelator, ethylenediaminetetraacetic
acid, at a concentration of 100 μM also highly promoted the growth of the fungal isolates in the presence of horse serum,
and ferric ion added to culture medium was considerably effective in the growth promotion. These results suggest that deficient
utilization of external iron by the fungus cell is one of the growth-limiting processes for low-density seedings of yeast
cells ofP. brasiliensis on conventional mycological agar media. 相似文献

The isolation of endophytic actinomycetes from surface-sterilized tissues of 36 plant species was made using humic acid–vitamin (HV) agar as a selection medium. Of the 330 isolates recovered, 212 were from roots, 97 from leaves and 21 isolates from stems with a prevalence of 3.9, 1.7 and 0.3%, respectively. Identification of endophytic actinomycetes was based on their morphology and the amino acid composition of the whole-cell extract. Most isolates were classified as Streptomyces sp. (n = 277); with the remainder belonging to Microbispora sp. (n = 14), Nocardia sp. (n = 8) and Micromonospora sp. (n = 4). Four isolates were unclassified and 23 were lost during subculture. The most prevalent group of isolates were the Streptomyces sp. occurring in 6.4% of the tissue samples of Zingiber officinale. Scanning electron microscopy investigation of this plant revealed that 7.5% of the root and 5% of the leaf samples contained endophytes. Three of the Streptomyces sp. isolates strongly inhibited Colletotrichum musae, five were very active against Fusarium oxysporum and two strongly inhibited growth of both test fungi. 相似文献

A total of 28 species representing 15 fungal genera were found to be associated with the all different stages of the Egyptian cotton leafworm,Spodoptera littoralis Boisd., its faeces and the air of the containers where it was reared on Czapek Dox agar medium at 28°C.Aspergillus was the most common genus and was frequently isolated from all substrates.A. flavus was the only fungus associated with all insect stages. At least two well known facultative pathogens were obtained:Beauveria alba andCephaliophora tropica. Nearly all fungi recovered from insect faeces or its environment were also encountered from different insect stages. Forty-two isolates were tested for their abilities for growth on a synthetic medium (nitrogen- and carbon-free) containing partially purified chitin. Most (76.2%) had moderate growth rates. 相似文献

Early blight (Alternaria solani) is an important disease causing severe damage in tomato. The eleven isolates of A. solani designated as So, Dh, Sh, Va-5, Ka, Ma, Hy, Ba-1, My, Va-3 and Mi were collected from different agroclimatic conditions and
these isolates were characterized for cultural, morphological, pathogenic and molecular variations. The pigmentation varied
from yellow, brown, black, brownish to greenish black in isolates of A. solani on potato dextrose agar medium. In general, radial growth of all isolates ranged between 14.9 mm and 32.2 mm on PDA and 24.3 mm
to 53.7 mm on three selective media i.e., ASM, V-8 juice agar and V-8 juice agar (synthetic) on the fourth day. The fastest
radial growth was recorded in the So isolate and slowest in the Ka isolate on PDA, while isolates Dh, Ba-1 and Va-3 were recorded
to be faster in growth on ASM, V-8 juice agar and V-8 juice agar (synthetic) medium. The thickness of conidiogenous hyphae
varied between 1.17 μ and 9.56 μ, with maximum in the Va-5 and Ma isolates. Most of the isolates showed smooth mycelial growth
with circular and irregular margin and without concentric zonation. Sporulation was not found in any of the isolates on four
different nutrient media, whereas conidiogenous hyphal length was observed in V-8 juice agar medium only. Based on the pathogenicity,
isolates of A. solani were rated as virulent or less virulent based on percentage disease incidence data. Molecular variability studies were also
done to find out the best annealing temperature and eighty-six primers were screened to select for maximum polymorphism of
DNA. The best annealing temperature was recorded between 32.5 °C and 34.0 °C for the pathogen, and most efficient amplification
and polymorphism of DNA was found with random primer 5′-CGCGTTCCTG-3′. 相似文献

Thirty-two isolates of Aspergillus flavus were obtained from various sources in Hungary. All isolates were morphologically identified as A. flavus and three atypical variants were confirmed as A. flavus by comparing their DNA with an ex type culture of A. flavus. None of these isolates produced aflatoxins when tested on coconut agar or grown on rice medium and culture extracts examined by thin layer chromatography. Also, none of the isolates converted sterigmatocystin, O-methyl sterigmatocystin, norsolorinic acid, or sodium acetate to aflatoxin. However, 59% of the isolates produced cyclopiazonic acid based on thin layer chromatographic analysis of culture extracts. The isolates that lack the ability to produce both aflatoxin and cyclopiazonic acid are potential candidates for use in bicontrol studies. 相似文献

Four new media, namely Wheat straw extract agar, Bajra straw extract agar, Jowar straw extract agar and Paddy straw extract agar, were evaluated for their potential to stimulate the growth and sporulation of Madurella mycetomatis in comparison with the conventional Sabouraud dextrose agar and Soil extract agar. Vegetative growth of M. mycetomatis on the four types of Straw extract agars was superior to that obtained on Sabouraud dextrose agar. Isolates of M. mycetomatis sporulated better and faster on the Straw extract agars than on the Sabouraud dextrose agar and Soil extract agar. Straw extract agar is recommended as a sporulation medium for M. mycetomatis. It may prove useful especially for studies of the conidium ontogeny of the fungus for elucidating its taxonomic status. 相似文献

In order to select bacterial strains effectively secreting mannanase activity for the production of prebiotic mannooligosaccharides,
a two-step screening procedure was performed. Enriched cultures from isolation medium containing copra meal were primary screened
on an isolation agar medium containing 1% locust bean gum (LBG), which resulted in 48 mannanase-producing bacterial isolates
with significant clearing zones on the mannan-containing agar. However, only nine isolates showed appreciable mannanase activities
against copra meal in their culture supernatants (0.054–0.185 U/mg of protein) as determined in a standard assay based on
the detection of reducing sugars released from this substrate. The isolates CW2-3 and ST1-1 displayed the highest activity
against LBG and copra meal, respectively. Copra mannan hydrolysates that were obtained by using crude mannanase from these
nine isolates were further used for a secondary screening towards a growth-enhancing activity on Lactobacillus reuteri and inhibitory activity against Escherichia coli as well as Salmonella Enteritidis, resulting in 0.09–2.15 log CFU/ml enhancing activity and low inhibitory activity of 0.46–1.78 log CFU/ml as
well as 0.37–1.72 log CFU/ml, respectively. The hydrolysate of CW2-3 mannanase showed the highest enhancing activity of 2.15 log
CFU/ml while isolate ST1-1 was most effective with respect to growth inhibition against E. coli E010 and S. Enteritidis S003 with 0.76 and 1.61 log CFU/ml, respectively. Based on morphological, physical, biochemical and genetics
properties, isolates CW2-3 and ST1-1 were identified as Klebsiella oxytoca and Acinetobacter sp., respectively. Crude mannanase activity from these two strains was characterized preliminarily. The pH optima of mannanase
activity from Klebsiella oxytoca CW2-3 and Acinetobacter sp. ST1-1 were 7 and 6, respectively. The enzymes were stable at 4°C over a pH range of 3–6 and 3–10, respectively. 相似文献

Two isolates of Beauveria bassiana, wild type (wt) and its mutant type (mt) were compared in terms of growth patterns on culture plates containing media based on wheat bran, grasshopper exoskeletons,
colloidal chitin or Sabouraud-dextrose agar (SDA). Germination for the mt isolate was up to 33% faster in all media. Influence of media on virulence was determined against larvae and adults of Tenebrio molitor. Mortality higher than 90% was reached for adults after 6 days using conidia from all media. For larvae, a mortality of 80%
was reached after 11 days with conidia collected from SDA medium and between 15 and 35% with conidia from other media. In
SDA medium, conidial yield was almost ten times higher for the mt isolate compared to the wt isolate; however, virulence traits were similar against either larvae or adults. These results may influence commercial preparations
of entomopathogenic fungi based on conidia. 相似文献
