e7“Consistently, cauliflower plants in the fresh broccoli treatment were taller, had greater root and shoot weights, were significantly more robust, and had the least number of infected plants (number of microsclerotia was lower) than in other treatments”

- Intervention effect Dry and fresh broccoli significantly reduced V. dahliae microsclerotia in soil compared with unamended soil at all temperatures.
- Intervention effect Fresh broccoli had a greater remissive effect on V. dahliae microsclerotia than dry broccoli.
- Association At 35°C, V. dahliae microsclerotia were reduced after 45 days in unamended soil.
- Intervention effect At 35°C, both fresh and dry broccoli almost completely eliminated V. dahliae from soil.
- Observation Maximum reductions in microsclerotia from broccoli treatments occurred within 15 days regardless of temperature.
- Association Fresh broccoli gave greater microsclerotia reductions than dry broccoli.
- Observation Further reductions in microsclerotia were not significant in broccoli treatments at later sampling dates.
- Observation In unamended soil, microsclerotia numbers changed little at all temperatures except 35°C.
- Observation The optimum temperatures for broccoli-mediated reductions of V. dahliae microsclerotia were 25 and 30°C.
- Intervention effect Cauliflower in the fresh broccoli treatment had greater root and shoot weights than in other treatments.
- Intervention effect Cauliflower in the fresh broccoli treatment was significantly more robust than in other treatments.
- Intervention effect Cauliflower in the fresh broccoli treatment had the least number of infected plants.
- Observation The dry broccoli treatment gave an intermediate number of infected cauliflower plants.
- Recommendation Broccoli residue should be incorporated when temperatures are at least 20°C to maximize reductions in V. dahliae microsclerotia and wilt in cauliflower.
