Potential for biocontrol of Monosporascus root rot/vine decline under greenhouse conditions using hypovirulent isolates of Monosporascus cannonballus.
2000-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Monosporascus root rot/vine decline (MRR/VD) causes root necrosis and severe stunting of muskmelon and watermelon plants in several countries around the world. MRR/VD is caused by the soilborne ascomycete fungus, Monosporascus cannonballus. Currently, there are few options available for control of MRR/VD. This research describes experiments to test the possibility of using naturally occurring M. cannonballus isola...
