Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect In dual culture T. harzianum was antagonistic to F. oxysporum and inhibited its growth by 86.6% seven days after inoculation.
- Mechanism Scanning electron microscopy showed antagonism mechanisms include nutrition and space competition and mycoparasitism.
- Observation GC-MS analysis showed several volatile organic compounds in the T. harzianum culture filtrate.
- Intervention effect In a greenhouse experiment, spraying and irrigation with T. harzianum CF gave less severe symptoms and slower disease development in infected oat than untreated plants.
- Intervention effect T. harzianum CF significantly increased total reducing power, phenolics and flavonoids in F. oxysporum-infected oat plants.
- Intervention effect T. harzianum CF significantly increased antioxidant enzymes and stress-related gene expression in F. oxysporum-infected oat plants.
- Recommendation T. harzianum CF is concluded to be effective in controlling Fusarium seedling blight in oat as a novel biocontrol agent.
