Potential biocontrol of Echinochloa crus-galli (Barnyard grass) by Curvularia lunata LD2 as a Mycoherbicide
Abstract:Echinochloa crus-galli (commonly known as barnyard grass) is a noxious weed causing loss of several economically important field crops in tropical regions . An intensive work on the screening of the bio control agents was accomplished through in vitro epidemic study to control weed populations. The foliar disease symptoms on infected weed plant caused by fungal pathogens represented as round to irregular maroon spots with dark borders and the epidemic was indent fields as leaf spot disease. The pathogen allied… Show more
