Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect The Chaetomium globosum liquid bioformulation suppressed the Fusarium-Meloidogyne wilt complex in tomato under greenhouse and field conditions.
- Observation The Chaetomium culture volatiles revealed potential antimicrobial compounds with antifungal activity in vitro.
- Intervention effect The antifungal compounds of Chaetomium were further up-regulated in the presence of the pathogen FOL.
- Observation Cg40 produced volatile compounds that showed antimicrobial and plant growth promotion activity.
- Observation Cg40-treated tomato plants showed altered relative abundance of several bacterial taxa.
- Intervention effect Microbial diversity was predominantly higher for Cg40 alone than for Cg40 challenged with Fusarium and root-knot nematode.
- Observation The chitinase gene was amplified from Cg40 at 1500 bp by PCR.
- Observation The xylanase gene was amplified from Cg40 at 660 bp by PCR.
- Intervention effect Soil application of the Cg40 liquid bioformulation gave the least wilt severity in tomato at both field locations.
- Intervention effect Soil application of the Cg40 liquid bioformulation enhanced tomato plant height.
- Intervention effect Soil application of the Cg40 liquid bioformulation increased tomato fruit yield.
