Characterization of the antagonism of the mycorrhizal fungus Waitea circinata against Magnaporthe oryzae, Cochliobolus miyabeanus, Monographella albescens and Sarocladium oryzae rice pathogens
Abstract:Rice production is affected by important pathogens such as Magnaporthe oryzae, Cochliobolus miyabeanus, Monographella albescens and Sarocladium oryzae, and orchid mycorrhizal fungi can contribute to the biocontrol of these diseases. The aim of this study was to characterize the antagonism mechanisms of W. circinata against rice pathogens. The indoleacetic acid (IAA) and lytic enzymes of W. circinata were quantified. The effectiveness of the bioagent and its metabolites was assessed in vitro. Antagonism in viv… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
