Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Alternaria solani inhibited Phytophthora infestans growth in vitro.
- Intervention effect Alternaria solani inhibited infection of potato by Phytophthora infestans in laboratory and agriculturally relevant field settings.
- Intervention effect Compounds secreted by Alternaria solani had inhibitory and disruptive effects on sporangia and mycelium of Phytophthora infestans in vitro.
- Intervention effect Simultaneous co-inoculation of both pathogens gave larger necrotic lesions on potato than single inoculations.
- Intervention effect Consecutive inoculation gave larger lesions on potato only when A. solani was inoculated after P. infestans.
