“…Although field testing results in infection under natural conditions, field trials are problematic with variable weather conditions and limited knowledge of pathogens (species and quantity) in the soil. The method is time‐consuming and labor intensive, making it challenging to screen several populations at the early stages of a breeding program (Farias Neto et al, 2008; Jat & Ahir, 2013). Screening in greenhouse conditions is also affected by many constraints: limited reproducibility, large space requirement, being time‐consuming, and interactions with secondary contaminants.…”

Red clover (Trifolium pratense) is an important forage legume crop that suffers like most perennial crops from attacks by soil‐borne pathogens. Fusarium root rot is one of the most serious diseases and at the same time problematic to identify resistance because of its hidden life in the soil. Current screening methods are laborious and hampered by limited reproducibility. To remedy this situation, we aimed to establish a simple and reliable hydroponics‐based screening system to facilitate studies of red clover–Fusarium avenaceum interactions. First, the fungal spore concentrations were balanced toward the development of red clover plants grown hydroponically. We found that the optimum concentration was 30,000 spores in 2 L of hydroponic medium to ensure infection during the plant growth period in this system. The procedure was scaled‐up to screen plants from 25 populations to identify red clover individuals with the improved resistance to F. avenaceum. Susceptible plants had approximately two‐fold higher amounts of fungal DNA than resistant plants, demonstrating a correlation between the disease readings of the plants and pathogen DNA. We foresee this screening procedure meeting the needs of both applied breeding work and in‐depth molecular studies of responses between this pathogen and its host plant. This method could be applied for the screening of other plant species for resistance to Fusarium spp. or to other root microbes.

Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan) holds significant economic importance as a versatile crop due to its various uses. It is a valuable source of nutrition for human consumption, rich in protein, dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals. Additionally, pigeonpea plays a crucial role in sustainable agriculture by fixing atmospheric nitrogen and enhancing soil fertility. Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium udum is an important economic threat to the growers of pigeonpea in India and across the globe. The study was therefore conducted during the years 2017–2019 to determine the impact of the various oil seed cakes on the fusarium wilt of pigeonpea. Seven treatments including different types of oil seed cakes viz., mustard cake, neem cake, linseed cake, mahua cake, sunflower cake, groundnut cake and carbendazim (treated check) were employed by adopting the soil inoculation method. All of the treatments employed notably diminished the incidence of fusarium wilt. Among the treatments, neem cake (T2) was most effective in suppressing disease incidence (73.78% and 76.89%), registering the least plant fatalities (19.05 and 18.02), respectively. Furthermore, treatment (T2) also showed maximum plant height at 120 DAS (151.86 cm and 153.34 cm) and the highest root-nodules count of pigeon pea (5.71, 5.66) respectively in both the cropping years compared to other treatments and untreated control (T0).
