Biological destruction of conidia ofVerticillium biguttatum

Abstract: Because biological control ofRhizoctonia solani in potato with conidial suspensions of the mycoparasite Verticillium biguttatum was often less successful in sandy soils than in loamy soils, we examined soils of potato fields for the presence of organisms destructive to conidia of V. biguttatum.Representatives of conidiophagous testate amoebae were frequently present on sclerotium disks of R. solani infected with V. biguttatum in all soils studied and were most active under moist conditions. Conidiophagous nake… Show more

“…Indeed, enchytraeid reproduction increased dramatically when pelletized hyphae were added to soil (17). Fungivory by enchytraeids seemed especially interesting, in part because fungivory has been infrequently considered in the plant pathology literature (3,12,23,39,40). Moreover, enchytraeids, which are closely related to earthworms, are apparently quite common (5) but seldom studied in the United States (45).…”

“…In both fields factors detrimental to V. biguttatum seem to be active and responsible for its low densities [Jager and Velvis, 1994].…”
