Situation of Biofungicides Reconnaissance, a Case of Anthracnose Disease of Cowpea

Abstract: Plant extracts have long been used in commercial agriculture as anti-microbial tools in food safety applications. These offer growers and agrobiologists many unique benefits which include their eco-friendliness. This work reviews the situation of Biofungicides reconnaissance in reference to fungal disease of cowpea. Twenty different pathogens were associated with various fungal diseases of cowpea and, only the species of Colletotrichum was found to have the virulence and propensity of afflicting a 100% infecti… Show more

“…Brown blotch disease caused by Colletotrichum capsici continues to cause enormous damage by seriously compromising development policies in terms of food security. However, the use of resistant varieties to brown blotch disease, combined with appropriate agricultural practices, is a very effective and sustainable strategy to control the disease (Adebitan et al, 1992;Enyiukwu et al, 2014;Obi and Barriuso-vargas, 2014). Several varieties of cowpea, local and improved, have been identified as resistant and constitute real resources of exploitable genes.…”

“…Malgré la multitude de méthodes de lutte utilisées, la maladie des taches brunes continue de causer des dégâts énormes en compromettant sérieusement les politiques de développement en termes de sécurité alimentaire. Cependant, l'utilisation de variétés résistantes de niébé à la maladie des taches brunes combinée avec des pratiques agricoles appropriées, est une stratégie très efficace et durable pour contrôler la maladie (Enyiukwu et al, 2014;Obi et Barriuso-vargas, 2014).…”
