Ginsenosides, Glycosidases and the Ginseng-Pythium Interaction
… oomycete root pathogens of ginseng, most notably Pythium irregulare Buisman, are able to partially deglycosylate the 20 (S)-protopanaxadiol ginsenosides Rb1, Rd and gypenoside XVII via extracellular glycosidases (ginsenosidases), leading to the formation of a common product, ginsenoside F2. In …

Optimizing in-vitro production of Delaware-isolated Pythium zoospores
Pythium, which are fungus-like eukaryotic plant pathogens, are notorious for significant worldwide crop losses by causing damping off, seedling blights, root rots, foliar blights, or stalk rots across hundreds of plant species. Pythium propagates in various ecological niches by producing oospores, …

The Risk Of Pythium Aphanidermatum In Hydroponic Baby-Leaf Spinach Production
Pythium aphanidermatum has been identified as the main obstacle/risk in the production of hydroponically grown babyleaf spinach. This organism is so prevalent that even crops grown in fresh nutrient solution will often show signs of Pythium damage at harvest time. Previous studies have identified …

Soybean-Pythium pathosystem: Search for host resistance and interaction with Fusarium species
… damping-off and root rot. Many species of Pythium and Fusarium cause seedling disease and are frequently recovered together from diseased soybean seedlings. Host resistance as a strategy to manage multiple pathogens has only briefly been explored in soybean and the interaction between these …

Ecology and Management of Pythium species in Float Greenhouse Tobacco Transplant Production
Pythium diseases are common in the greenhouse production of tobacco transplants and can cause up to 70% seedling loss in hydroponic (float-bed) greenhouses. However, the symptoms and consequences of Pythium diseases are often variable among these greenhouses. A tobacco transplant greenhouse survey …

Development of Pythium oligandrum drechsler for biological control of fungal soil-borne diseases.
… growth, oospore production and germination of Pythium oligandrum were examined. Optimum temperatures for growth of several isolates were in the range of 20 - 30 0 , with little growth occurring below 100 or above 350 Oospore germination occurred over the range of 10-35°. Both growth and oospore …

Mechanisms of biological control of the damping-off fungus, Pythium ultimum, by binucleate Rhizoctonia / by K. Siwek.
This thesis investigates the mechanism(s) involved in the protection of Capsicum seedlings by two isolates of BNR against the damping-off fungus, P.u. sporangiiferum. Emphasis is placed on ecological attributes of the antagonists in relation to the pathogen, in conditions resembling those of the …

Characterization, development of a field inoculation method, and fungicide sensitivity screening of the Pythium blight pathogen of snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)
… regions, but profitability is threatened by Pythium blight. Causal agents of Pythium blight on snap bean were identified using morphological characterization and sequence analysis of the rDNA-internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of 100 isolates. Most isolates were Pythium aphanidermatum …

Identification of Pythium species inducing common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) root rot symptoms and development of backcrosses to improve the level of varietal resistance to this disease
… pathogens depending on environmental conditions, Pythium spp. are the fungal pathogens most frequently associated with severe epidemics in eastern Africa. Studies on root rot have indicated that continuous cropping of beans, a common practice in eastern Africa, exacerbates the problem. This work …

Characterization of oomycete species causing soybean diseases in Illinois and management applications
… US Midwest. Several species of Phytophthora and Pythium cause PRR and seedlings diseases, respectively. PRR is managed using cultivars with single resistance genes (Rps genes) in combination with seed treatments. In addition to Rps genes, cultivars with quantitative resistance or partial …

Evaluation of Pythium root rot and damping off resistance in the ancestral lines of North American soybean cultivars and chemical control of the active ingredient ethaboxam in seed treatments
Effects of Pythium ultimum var. ultimum and other Pythium species on the North American Ancestral Soybean Lines A trend towards planting soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) earlier in the growing season has made seedling diseases more prominent. A survey of biotic causes of yield loss between 2006 …
