Neurological syndromes among horses in The Netherlands a 5 year retrospective survey (1999–2004)

“…Percentage of horses with fever during an outbreak. 2 Percentage of horses with abnormal clinical findings at neurological examination.…”

“…An alternative explanation is that infected grass seeds were unintentionally used for pasture improvement. The syndrome was first described in 2 (12). The incidence of neurological disorders in horses on premises with toxin concentrations between 1.5-2.0 ppm is usually low (<10%).…”

Studies on Effect of Different Storage Conditions on Viability of Karonda Seeds

“…Highest growth parameters were recorded in seeds treated with Trichoderma. This may be due to Trichoderma strains are always associated with plant roots and root ecosystems that increases uptake of nitrates and other ions that frequently enhances root growth and development, crop productivity, resistance to abiotic stresses (Arora et al, 1992). Trichoderma strains as plant symbiont opportunistic avirulent organisms, able to colonize plant roots by mechanisms similar to those of mycorrhizal fungi and to produce compounds that stimulate growth and plant defence mechanisms.…”

Effect of Different Temperature and Culture Media on the Mycelia Growth of Trichoderma viride Isolates

“…They release secondary metabolites that induce localized or systemic resistance responses in plants. Root colonization by Trichoderma strains frequently enhances root growth and development, crop productivity, resistance to abiotic stresses and the uptake and use of nutrients (Arora et al, 1992). The microbial inoculants as biocontrol agents are effective and attractive alternatives to prevent the deficiencies brought about by the exclusive reliance on chemicals (Nakkeeran et al, 2002).Trichoderma sp.…”
