Reaction of Bipolaris euphorbiae to environmental factors and its tolerance to solar and ultraviolet radiation

Abstract: The determination of the ideal cultivation conditions and the knowledge of solar radiation tolerance are important aspects that must be investigated for the use of Bipolaris euphorbiae Muchovej and Carvalho as a biocontrol agent. The present study was done to assess the growth rate, sporulation and viability of the fungus cultivated under different conditions of the initial pH value of the growth medium, temperature and photoperiod. The tolerance of this fungus' conidia to light from a source simulating solar … Show more

“…These effects reduce the activity of the fungus on the host Chelico and Khachatourians, 2008). Conidia of B. euphorbiae are tolerant to solar and ultraviolet radiation, and remain viable (germination > 92%) after 8 h of exposure to radiation emitted by a solar simulator or 90 min of exposure to germicidal UV radiation, without the use of any formulation (Moraes et al, 2011).…”

“…Melanin is also associated with protection against high temperatures and chemical stresses such as the presence of heavy metals and oxidizing agents (Allam and Abd ElZaher, 2012). Although the results achieved by Moraes et al (2011) have shown that B. euphorbiae is quite tolerant Original values and statistical analysis of sporulation and germination performed with data transformed into log x and arc sin (x/100), respectively. Means followed in the column by at least one common letter do not differ by the Tukey test (p ≥ 0.05).…”
