Abstract:
... The effect of ammonium molybdate (NH4Mo) as an additive to improve biocontrol efficacy of antagonistic yeasts Rhodotorula glutinis and Trichosporon sp. against blue mold and Alternaria rot of pear fruits caused by Penicillium expansum and Alternaria alternata, respectively, was evaluated. Biocontrol activity of R. glutinis was enhanced in combination with NH4Mo, whereas the efficacy of Trichosporo ...

Abstract:
... Benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC) is known to be a strong antifungal compound in vitro against different fungi. The effectiveness of benzyl isothiocyanate to control Alternaria alternata growth in vitro and in vivo was tested. BITC in vitro activity was evaluated in A alternata growing on potato dextrose agar and exposed to 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2 or 0.4 mg ml(-1). In vivo activity was evaluated by expos ...
