“…Similar results were found by different authors. Anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides), pestalotia leaf spot (Pestalotia heterocornis) and powdery mildew (Oïdium anacardii) have also identified among major diseases attacking cashew trees in Tanzania (NARI, 2009;Msoka, 2017), in Bénin (Afouda et al, 2013), in India (Khatoon et al, 2017) and Kenya (Menge & Marthamakobe, 2016). Drying of the buds (Phomopsus anacardii) has also been reported in Mozambique (Uaciquete, 2013), in Ivory Coast (Nakpalo et al, 2017) and Burkina Faso (Wonni et al, 2017).…”

The culture of cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) is increasing in the Far North Cameroon. But, the productivity is threatened by the development of diseases in orchads. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify diseases and pathogens involved in cashew cultivation. The diseases were identified under the basis of the identification keys. The fungal structures were characterized using an optical microscope and the pathogenicity test were carried out. Incidence, severity and prevalence of diseases were assessed in the dry season and the rainy season. Seven diseases and seven pathogens have been identified: anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Penz), pestalotia leaf spot (Pestalotia heterocornis), alternaria (Alternaria solani), drying of buds (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Phomopsus anacardii and Curvularia lunata), dieback (Colletotrichum sp. and Lasiodiplodia sp.), blight of leaves (Pestalotia heterocornis and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides) and powdery mildew (Oidium anacardii Noack). Whatever the season; anthracnose, pestalotia leaf spot an drying of buds are diseases with higher incidence (more than 85, 60 and 75% respectively) and higher prevalence. The severity of the diseases varied according to the location and season. Pathogenicity test revealed that all the test fungi were pathogenic to their respective host parts except cashew powder mildew and alternaria. The results of this study represent database for implementation of integrated disease management approaches in Cameroon.

Evaluating the Utility of Simplicillium lanosoniveum, a Hyperparasitic Fungus of Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, as a Biological Control Agent against Wheat Stem Rust

et al. 2022

Wheat stem rust is one of the wheat diseases caused by Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici (Pgt). This disease has been responsible for major losses to wheat production worldwide. Currently used methods for controlling this disease include fungicides, the breeding of stem rust-resistant cultivars, and preventive agricultural measures. However, the excessive use of fungicides can have various deleterious effects on the environment. A hyperparasitic fungus with white mycelia and oval conidia, Simplicillium lanosoniveum, was isolated from the urediniospores of Pgt. When Pgt-infected wheat leaves were inoculation with isolates of S. lanosoniveum, it was found that S. lanosoniveum inoculation inhibited the production and germination of urediniospores, suggesting that S. lanosoniveum could inhibit the growth and spread of Pgt. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that S. lanosoniveum could inactivate the urediniospores by inducing structural damage. Overall, findings indicate that S. lanosoniveum might provide an effective biological agent for the control of Pgt.

Investigations a development of infection caused by Erysiphe platani on plane trees (Platanus x hispanica) were conducted in the large city in north-western Poland in the years 2014-2017. Leaf infection as well as the frequency and phenology of the fungus were assessed. The occurrence and biology of E. platani at individual research localities varied depending on the infection time and habitat conditions. A correlation between the presence of Discula platani and the timeline of the occurrence of disease symptoms induced by E. platani was identified. powdery mildew, plane tree, Platanus, fungi, microscopic fungi.
