Abstract The options for managing F usarium wilt in greenhouse cucumbers are limited by our poor understanding of the modes survival and dissemination pathogen. This study uses a specific quantitative real‐time PCR assay oxysporum f. sp. cucumerinum to investigate significance flying insects as aerial vectors pathogen commercial cucumber greenhouse. Shore flies were more frequently detected (35.5%) carrying . than sciarids (25%), with both species between 1 × 10 2 6 genome copies/individual....
Phytophthora cinnamomi is a destructive pathogen that causes dieback and death in many plant species Australian native ecosystems. Susceptibility varies widely between related taxa, although the reasons for this variability are poorly understood. In glasshouse studies we confirmed field observations Lambertia formosa, New South Wales shrub, less susceptible to P. than Western species, L. inermis. Following inoculation, inermis roots heavily colonised by pathogen, leading high mortality...
The use of sewage sludges in agriculture has resulted increased organic pollution soils. A study these pollutant transfers been started at our research centre. following points were particularly studied: —The penetration pollutants the plant. Does it take place root level or by air transport? — Do soil characteristics influence transfer? How does contribution intake pollutants? To answer questions, we carried out a trial on contaminated sand with pure chemicals—polychlorobiphenyls (PCB) and...
