Journal ArticleDOI
Use of Trichoderma harzianum in combination or alternation with fungicides to control cucumber grey mould (Botrytis cinerea) under commercial greenhouse conditions
TL;DR: The alternation of sprays with the biocontrol preparation and with a dicarboximide fungicide was tested in three out of the five experiments and was found to be effective, thus enabling a reduction in the use of chemical sprays.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Trichoderma harzianum on Botrytis cinerea pathogenicity
TL;DR: Germination and germ-tube elongation of conidia of the pathogen Botrytis cinerea on bean leaves were reduced in the presence of the biocontrol agent Trichoderma harzianum T39, but this did not result in complete prevention of disease development on the leaves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of humidity on infection of rose petals by dry-inoculated conidia of Botrytis cinerea
TL;DR: In freeze-fractures of infected petals, the apices of fungal hyphae caused no apparent deformation of host cell walls during penetration of, or emergence from, the mesophyll cells, indicating that cell wall-degrading enzymes are secreted and retained at the hyphal tip.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of the RAPD procedure for the identification of Trichoderma strains
TL;DR: Using the RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) procedure with arbitrary 10 oligonucleotide primers, the isolate T-39, which is used commercially as a biocontrol agent against Botrytis cinerea was distinguishable by this procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biosynthesis of pathogenicity hydrolytic enzymes by Botrytis cinerea during infection of bean leaves and in vitro
TL;DR: Significant amounts of all hydrolytic enzymes studied in the early hours and monitored during 6 d of incubation were detected, supporting the possibility of a major role for the enzymes produced by B. cinerea in the development of disease.
