Other claims from this paper (6)
- Mechanism Treatments did not support bacterial contamination or special plasmids as causes of decline.
- Observation Only 4% of declined-strain hyphal tips recovered naturally to R-1.
- Mechanism The decline agent could transmit through fungal fusions to healthy R-1 hyphae.
- Association R-ld was significantly less pathogenic than R-1 in a pot test.
- Intervention effect Inoculating R-ld two days before R-1 lowered cotton seedling disease index.
- Recommendation The authors judged R-Id promising for control of cotton damping-off.
