“…The importance of a second type of conidia, shorter and broader in shape, is not known. Similar types of spores and disease symptoms were described for other Entyloma species by TRUJILLO et al (1988) and BARRETO and EVANS (1988). The biology and taxonomy of E. ageratinae, a species used successfully for biological weed control on Hawaii, were discussed comprehensively by BARRETO and EVANS (1988).…”

The blue thistle (Eryngium alpinum L.), an indigenous perennial flower of the alps, is grown in mountainous regions of south‐eastern Switzerland. The commercial value of the fresh cut flowers can be seriously reduced due to a leaf spot disease caused by the smut fungus Entyloma eryngii (Cda.) de By. The fungus produces thick walled chlamydospores and two types of conidia. The disease appears to be favoured by cool‐rainy weather and a dense foilage resulting in long periods of leaf wetness. Control of the disease can be achieved with the protective fungicide mancozeb or even more efficiently with the systemic ergosterol‐biosynthesis‐inhibiting fungicides cyproconazole and difenoconazole.

Bioherbicides are biologically based control agents useful for biological weed control. Hence, bioherbicides have been identified as a significant biological control strategy. Bioherbicides have many advantages such as clearly defined for target weeds, no side effect on beneficial plants or human health, a lack of pesticide residue build-up in the environment, and effectiveness for control of some herbicideresistant weed biotypes. More importantly, it has been demonstrated that mixtures of some bioherbicides and synthetic herbicides can be more effective. Apart from many bioherbicide benefits, some factors have been noted to restrict the development of bioherbicides into profitable products. They involved environmental, biological and technical-commercial restrictions.

“…The fungus, originally misnamed as Cercosporella sp. and subsequently described as Entyloma ageratinae by Barreto and Evans (2) and E. compositarum by Trujillo et al (41), was introduced into Hawaii in 1974. A few months after the field release, devastating epidemics were recorded in dense stands of A. riparia in cool, high-rainfall sites in Oahu, Hawaii, and Maui, causing significant stand reductions within 9 months.…”
