English : SOME METHODS FOR THE CONTROL OF SESAME CHARCOAL ROT DISEASE (MACROPHOMINA PHASEOLINA)
Arabic : بعض طرق مكافحة مرض العفن الفحمي فى السمسم المتسبب عن الفطر ماكروفومينا فاسيولينا
Abstract The incidence of charcoal rot disease on sesame plants under greenhouse conditions was successfully controlled by several means i.e. antagonistic microorgansms, plant extracts, systemic resistance-inducing agents and inoculation with vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Treating sesame seeds with the antagonistic fungi and bacteria reduced disease incidence to different extents. Trichoderma harzianum produced the highest percentages of healthy mature plants (96.7%) followed by Chaetomium bostrycoides ( 90.0%), Trichoderma sp 5 (83.3%) and T. hamatum (80.0%). The disease could be controlled also through enhancing the systemic resistance by soaking sesame seeds in the filtered extracts of thyme, rhubarb or garlic (83.3-86.7% healthy mature plants) or autoclaved extracts of cumin or azedrach (86.7%). Soaking sesame seeds in IBA at 100 ppm or SA at 4 mM induced the superior effect as the % healthy standing plants was maximized to 100.0% and 96.7%, respectively. The probable biochemical defense mechanisms that induced by these treatments in term of oxidative enzymes, phenol and sugars content were investigated and discussed . Applying VAMF (vesicular arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi) soil preparations showed no significant effect on the post-emergence and charcoal rot incidence. However, healthy standing plants were maximized by the soil preparation containing G1+G2+G3+G4 (86.7%) followed by G1 alone (76.7%), G3+G4 (70.0%), G2+G3 (63.3%), and G4 (63.3%) compared with control (36.7%). In another experiment, mixture of 4 VAM fungi grown in vitro on autoclaved barely-sand modified medium was used at different rates. Applying the prepared VAMF mixture at rates of 2g/Kg potted soil produced the highest significant increase in healthy standing plants (70.0%) compared with control (30.0%). The incidence of charcoal rot was decreased significantly only at rates 1 and 2 g/Kg soil (2.5-7.5%) compared with control treatment (22.5%).
