In Mexico strawberry production has great economic importance for the local and export markets as country is main supplier to United States (SIAP, 2020). 2022, plants with yellowing wilting leaves, root rot wilting, necrosis of vascular bundles small fruits symptoms were observed in different commercial fields north-central Mexican state Sinaloa, causing yield losses about 10%. Typical Fusarium spp. colonies recovered from all samples. They produced abundant white aerial mycelium cream...
Abstract Mexico is the 8 th largest producer of tomatoes. Meloidogyne enterolobii reported in Sinaloa, affecting tomato cultivars with genetic resistance to spp. We aimed evaluate field applications fluopyram, fluensulfone, and fluazaindolizine treatments for managing M. on Experiments were set raised beds a shade house. Nematicides applied via drip irrigation. Under fluopyram treatment, did not reduce number extra-large-size fruits. The large-size fruits plus was also unaffected by . Yield...
Fusarium basal rot is a major disease of onion production in Mexico. Recently, falciforme and F. brachygibbosum were reported as two new causal agents However, little known about the pathogenicity virulence these pathogens on this crop globally. The (severity disease) isolates recovered Culiacan Valley (Sinaloa, North-west Mexico) was determined compared with oxysporum collected from same region. Two tests conducted under controlled conditions, one bulbs, another seedlings cv. 'Carta...
Mango malformation disease caused by Fusarium spp. is one of the main limiting factors for mango production in Mexico. Fungal isolates obtained from symptomatic tissue trees Sinaloa, Mexico, were subjected to phylogenetic analysis TEF-1α gene, and evaluated mating type, morphological markers pathogenicity. Fifteen monosporic identified as neocosmosporiellum O'Donnell & Geiser. Phylogenetic confirmed that sequence this study corresponds F. neocosmosporiellum. All 15 found be pathogenic, but...
La región central del estado de Sinaloa (México) en el noroeste mexicano, se caracteriza por un clima semiárido caálido donde la precipitación es insuficiente para desarrollo adecuado algunas especies vegetales introducidas, como las correspondientes al género Brachiaria y otro lado, a pesar avance tecnológico sensores, escaso acceso los productores información meteorológica suficiente; objetivo presente trabajo consistió determinar requerimiento hídrico, coeficiente cultivo productividad...
Objective: Identificar la efectividad in vitro de cinco fungicidas químicos, y el porcentaje inhibición crecimiento micelial F. falciforme, brachygibbosum oxysporum en producción cebolla. Design/methodology/approach: Los aislamientos se sometieron a una prueba sensibilidad con concentraciones 1, 10, 100 1000 ppm medio cultivo PDA. Se transfirieron discos 0.5 cm diámetro los al centro caja Petri que contenían impregnado fungicidas. estableció un diseño completamente azar tratamientos testigo,...
Objective: To assess the influence of vermicompost (LC) and phytoregulator (AMP) in cultivation zucchini, under shade house conditions. Design/methodology/approach: A randomized block experimental design with eight treatments six repetitions was used. Results: The did not affect fruit diameter pH variables. Jacobo+LC+AMP treatment induced length, all where applied increased weight commercial yield. For firmness total soluble solids, trend clear due to effect treatments. Findings/conclusions:...
Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa) is a fruit of economic importance for Mexico, occupying the third place in world production, with an approximate production 861, 337 t (SIAP, 2021). In January 2021, Culiacan, Sinaloa, Mexico (24°46'46″N; 107°27'04″ W), wilting symptoms (stunted growth, leaf yellowing and wilting, necrosis vascular bundles, root rot wilting) were observed on commercial strawberry crops, incidence 5 to 10 %. Tissue samples from symptomatic roots cut disinfected alcohol, sodium...
Mexico is the fifth largest producer of papaya in world with an estimated production 1, 134, 753 metric tons per year (FAOSTAT 2022). In February 2022, center zone Sinaloa State (Mexico), a seedling-producing greenhouse, seedlings were observed incidence (20%) root and stem rot necrotic tissue. Symptomatic tissues collected from 10 plants, which cut into small pieces surface sterilized sequentially 70% alcohol for 20 s 1% sodium hypochlorite 2 min, dried, placed on potato dextrose agar...
Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is the second most important crop in Mexico after corn due to high consumption all regions of country. Sinaloa state ranked Mexico, producing 140,830 tons 2020 (SIAP, 2021). In October 2020, wilting symptoms (stunted growth, withered leaves, root rot and wilt) were observed on commercial bean crops three fields Culiacan, with an incidence 3 5%. Tissue samples from symptomatic roots plated potato dextrose agar (PDA). Typical Fusarium spp. colonies obtained samples....
Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is the most economically important fruit in tropical and subtropical regions of world. Mexico ranked fourth largest mango producer worldwide with an approximate production 2 396 675 t 2019 (FAO 2020). Sinaloa principal state 410,147 2020 (SIAP 2021). malformation disease (MMD) one main limitations this crop worldwide, causing serious losses yield. During December 2017 to April 2018, symptoms MMD were observed commercial municipality El Rosario (Sinaloa, Mexico)....
