Biological control of Phytophthora root rot of avocato with microorganisms grown in organic mulches

Abstract: Organic mulches colonized with microbial biocontrol agents, termed bioenhanced mulches, were tested for their ability to reduce Phytophthora root rot of avocado (Persea americana Mill.). Benomyl-resistant mutants of Gliocladium virens (KA 230-1) and Trichoderma harzianum (KA 159.2) isolated from suppressive soils and selected as efficient antagonists of P. cinnamomi were evaluated for their ability to colonize different mulches under controlled laboratory conditions. Sudangrass and a coarse yardwaste were foun… Show more

“…Although Trichoderma is well reported as a biocontrol agent (BCA) against various species of Phytophthora (AMORIM;ITAMAR, 1999;COSTA et al, 2000;ALEXANDER;STEWART, 2001; 2) the specific effect on P. palmivora in papaya has not been studied and the results obtained so far are few significant (BUENO;DIANESE et al, 2012;TOCAFUNDO et al, 2010). The control effectiveness of the isolates 225C1 (T. virens), SF04 (T. asperellum) and 4088 (T. longibrachiatum), indicated that these isolates are important for management of the papaya fruit rot (P. palmivora).…”

“…En los tratamientos que recibieron alguna fuente de materia orgánica (T5, T6, T7 y T8) se observó una mayor actividad de la microbiota del suelo, expresada como producción de CO 2 , coincidiendo con una mayor población microbiana (Figura 1, 2 y 3 ), posiblemente se debe a la oxidación de residuos de plantas, exudados y de materia orgánica presente en el suelo (Machulla, 2003), consecuencia de las adiciones realizadas en los tratamientos T5, T6, T7 y T8. Estos resultados coinciden con los trabajos realizados por Vidales & Alcantar (1999) y Costa et al, (2000), quienes encontraron una mayor actividad microbiana, cuando realizaron adiciones de materiales orgánicos al suelo, compuestos por estiércoles y harina de alfalfa.…”

“…You & Sivasithamparam, (1995) reportaron que la materia orgánica tuvo un efecto negativo sobre la sobrevivencia de P. cinnamomi, observando lisis de hifas y esporangios abortivos, como consecuencia del aumento de la biomasa microbiana total. Otros autores también reportan el uso de materia orgánica y coberturas vegetales con excelentes resultados en el manejo de P. cinnamomi (Costa et al, 2000;Vidales & Alcantar 1999;Richter et al, 2011;Bonilla et al, 2012).…”
