Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Both Trichoderma species strongly inhibited mycelial growth of R. solani in vitro, with inhibition over 85% for the most effective isolates.
- Intervention effect Trichoderma spp. applied to the soil in the greenhouse significantly reduced damping-off and root rot disease incidence compared with the infected control.
- Intervention effect Trichoderma spp. applied to the soil in the greenhouse increased the percentage of healthy surviving plants compared with the infected control.
- Intervention effect T. asperellum provided more efficient disease suppression than T. atroviride.
- Intervention effect The chemical fungicide resulted in the greatest reduction of disease.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that Trichoderma spp., mainly T. asperellum, can be an alternative or supplement to chemical fungicides for integrated management of R. solani root rot in V. faba.
