Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSuppression of Salicylic Acid-Mediated Plant Defense Responses During Initial Infection of Dyer's Woad by Puccinia thlaspeosBradley R. Kropp, Elizabeth ThomasProblem statement: Puccinia thlaspeos is a microcyclic rust pathogen that is being investigated as a potential biocontrol agent of the noxious weed, dyer’s woad (Isatis tinctoria). Although, the initial events in the colonization of dyer’s woad by the rust pathogen has been elucidated using scanning electron microscopy and PCR, little is known regarding the susceptibility response of this plant to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 8,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Temperature and Storage Time on Shelf Life of Mycoherbicidal Products of Colletotrichum dematium FGCC#20Jaya Singh, A.K. PandeyProblem statement: The storage environment can have a drastic impact on the stabilization of microbial biopesticides. As a general rule, storing microbial preparation at lower temperature increase long term survivelity. Approach: Optimization of shelf life is critically important for biocontrol products containing living microorganisms. Conidia of Colletotrichum dematium, (FGCC#20) a fungal pathogen of the weed, Parthenium hysterophorus were produced in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,903 accessesView PDFCite
