Pseudomonas corrugata and Pseudomonas marginalis associated with the collapse of tomato plants in rockwool slab hydroponic culture

Plant pathogenic species Pseudomonas corrugata and P. marginalis were detected and determined in collapsed tomato plants in rockwool slab hydroponic culture in southern Moravia, Czech Republic. Surprisingly, P. marginalis was also determined before planting in apparently healthy grafted tomato transplants grown in hydroponic culture. Moreover, non-pathogenic P. fluorescens, P. putida, P. synxantha, and Stenotrophomonas malthophilia were identified. The Biolog Identification GN2 MicroPlate™ System System (Biolog, Inc., Hayward, USA) was used for identification of bacterial isolates....
Phytophthora alder decline: disease symptoms, causal agent and its distribution in the Czech Republic

Phytophthora decline of riparian alder populations has recently become an important problem in many European countries, including the Czech Republic. The causal agent, Phytophthora alni, has spread quickly in the Czech Republic. Hundreds of kilometres of riparian alder stands, especially in the western part of the country, have been severely affected to date. Diseased trees show symptoms characteristic of Phytophthora root and collar rot; these include small, sparse and yellowing foliage, crown dieback, presence of exudates on the bark and necroses of collar and root tissues. Infected trees usually die within a few years, or they...

This study provides new information on the distribution of the chestnut blight agent Cryphonectria parasitica and its vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) in the Czech Republic. This study has revealed the presence of the disease in six localities. The VCG tests showed that each locality was represented by a single distinct VCG, which was different from the others collected in the country. The tests with 31 European testers of C. parasitica VCGs (EU-1 to EU-31) had assigned Czech isolates to VCGs EU-1, EU-4, EU-12, EU-13, EU-15, and EU-19. Moreover, the study showed that in the Czech Republic chestnut blight attacks young trees,...

Tested seed treatments (two doses of thiamethoxam, thiamethoxam + fludioxonil + metalaxyl-M; two doses of clothianidin + beta-cyfluthrin) showed high effects on pea leaf weevils (Sitona lineatus L.) which approved relatively long-lasting and sufficient protection of several bottom nodes of stipules simultaneously. The effects of foliar treatments (chlorpyrifos + cypermethrin; acetamiprid, lambda-cyhalothrin) sometimes were evident only on the node which was determined as the youngest node at the time of spraying. The effects of the compared seed and foliar treatments on the reduction of S. lineauts larvae numbers on roots were not...
Management of root knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) on tomato (i>Lycopersicon lycopersicum ) using organic wastes in Zaria, Nigeria

Field experiments were conducted in 2001/2002 and 2002/2003 dry seasons in Arewaci and Kurmi Bomo areas of Kaduna State, Nigeria, to test the efficacy of three organic wastes, namely refuse dump (RD), rice husk (RH) and sawdust (SD), for the management of root knot nematodes, Meloidogyne spp., on tomato. Organic wastes were applied at the rate of 15, 30 and 45 metric tons per hectare. Furadan (3G) was applied at the rate of 16, 32 and 64 kg/ha and non-amended plots served as control. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design (RCBD). Four weeks old tomato seedlings (cv. Roma VF) susceptible to root knot nematodes were transplanted...
