Factors influencing pathogenicity of Fusarium tumidum on gorse (Ulex europaeus)

2008-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Factors promoting pathogenicity of Fusarium tumidum on gorse (Ulex europaeus) were determined to develop a novel strategy for delivering this potential mycoherbicide using insects as vectors of inoculum. Fusarium tumidum sprayed as a suspension of 1x10⁶ conidia mL-1 on at least 50% of a gorse plant reduced shoot dry weight by 45% (P<0.05). A minimum of 910 viable conidia were required to cause a lesion on leaves....
