Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Berkeleyomyces basicola infected cotton and caused black root rot at two inoculum levels.
- Intervention effect Cotton seedling necrosis was significantly lower after 10 3 B. basicola spores/mL than after B. rouxiae inoculation.
- Observation Both cotton varieties showed co-infection in co-inoculation assays.
- Association Cotton variety Sicot 714B3F appeared more resilient than Sicot 746B3F.
- Observation Both cotton varieties had disease severity above 90% after infection with cotton B. rouxiae.
- Observation Neither Berkeleyomyces species caused black rot symptoms on carrot seedlings.
- Intervention effect Carrot B. basicola caused more necrosis on marketed carrot roots than cotton B. rouxiae.
- Recommendation The authors propose alternative surveillance of cotton black root rot pathogens.
- Recommendation The authors propose further host-range study of the two Berkeleyomyces species.
