Project: POSSIBILITIES OF CHEMICAL CONTROL AND DETERMINATION OF Fusariumspp. BY MOLECULAR METHODS ON SOME IMPORTED FLOWER BULBS
Date : 22/01/2011 - 22/02/2014
Assessor : Asuman ERGÜN
Scope : In this study conducted with Gladiolus L.,Lilium L., Tulipa L., Iris L.and Hyacinthus, Fusarium oxysporum Schlechtmicroconidia, Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht chlamydospore and reference Fusariumoxysporum Schlecht. f. sp. Tulipae (FOT) isolates have been detected by conventional PCR and Real-time PCR as the first time.
In addition, mycelial effectiveness of fludioxonil 100g/L, fludioxonil 25g/L+metalaxyl-M 10g/L, quinosol %50, prothioconazole 250g/L+tebuconazole 150g/L, prochloraz %50, hydrogenperoxide %0.49+colloidal silver %0.03 and Lactobacillus acidophilus 781.18g/L on 7 different Fusarium spp. İsolates were evaluated in vitro.
