Abstract:Suitable levels of inoculum of Rhizoctonia solani and Myrothecium roridum for the induction of symptoms in coffee (Coffea arabica L.) seedlings were determined in greenhouse tests based on the percentage of seedling mortality and disease incidence. Best inoculum level for R. solani and M. roridum was 15 and 10%, respectively. Myrothecium roridum was more virulent than R. solani, and thus caused higher mortality of coffee seedlings. For both pathogens, as the inoculum concentration increased, the dry weight of … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
