The Plant Disease Diagnostic Laboratory of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture received diseased geranium (Pelargonium × hortorum) samples from several Pennsylvania (PA) greenhouses in 1999 and 2000 and from one Delaware (DE) greenhouse in 1999. Originating from Guatemala, plants exhibited
The effects of 16 sugars (arabinose, cellobiose, fructose, galactose, gentiobiose, glucose, inositol, lactose, maltose, mannitol (a sugar alcohol), mannose, melibiose, ribose, sorbitol, trehalose, and xylose) on sweet potato whitefly Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) survival were
Ralstonia solanacearum (Smith) Yabuuchi, Kosako, Yano, Hotta, and Nishiuchi, the cause of brown rot of potato (Solanum tuberosum), was detected for the first time in Turkey in 1995 in five potato fields in the Nevsehir Province of the central Anatolia Region and was eradicated under measures
In October 2005 and September 2006, two outbreaks of bacterial wilt occurred in the south and north (90 and 95 m above sea level, respectively) of Mauritius, respectively, on different potato cultivars in seed potato fields. Symptoms were reported at harvest when profuse creamy exudates were
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is an important crop in China. In 2013, diseased potatoes exhibiting blackleg and soft rot symptoms were found in the winter potato growing areas of Huizhou city, Guangdong Province, China, with an incidence of approximately 20%. Initially, the stem bases of infected
A strain of Thermoactinomyces sp., TM9208, isolated from a soil sample in the Taipei area showed antagonistic activity to Gram positive bacteria but not to the Gram negative on the potato extract agar plate by the cross streaking method. The strain showed strong starch hydrolysis, beta type of
Adhesion of 19 Bifidobacterium strains to native maize, potato, oat, and barley starch granules was examined to investigate links between adhesion and substrate utilization and to determine if adhesion to starch could be exploited in probiotic food technologies. Starch adhesion was not
Streptomyces species are best known for their ability to produce a wide array of medically and agriculturally important secondary metabolites. However, there is a growing number of species which, like Streptomyces scabies, can function as plant pathogens and cause scab disease on economically
In South Africa, summer-flowering Arum lilies are grown for the tuber, potted plant, and cut flower markets. In 1998, an outbreak of soft rot was detected on Zantedischia oculata cv. Black Magic and Z. elliottiana plants from several nurseries. Crop losses of up to 25% were incurred. The initial
A survey of southwestern Nigeria showed an outbreak of wilt disease caused by Ralstonia solanacearum in 80% of tomato (Lycopersicon lycopersicum) fields in the production area of Ogun State (7°15'N, 3°25'E) in June 1996. Subsequent surveys conducted in Edo (6°45'N, 5°30'E), Delta (5°15'N, 5°45'E),
During an investigation of fungi from an elm tree infested with bark beetles in Korea, one isolate, DUCC401, was isolated from elm wood. Based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analysis of the internal transcribed spacer and 28S rDNA (large subunit) sequences, the isolate, DUCC401,
Exocellulases play a key role in cleaving the accessible ends of cellulose molecules to release soluble glucose and cellobiose. To date, there have been no screens for exocellulase owing to assay protocol limitations, the high cost of substrates, and low activity of exocellulases compared with
Horn lian (Typhonium giganteum) is a perennial herb of the family Aracea and is commonly used for expelling phlegm and as an antispasmodic treatment. In August 2012, horn lian grown in Changchun, Jilin Province of China, exhibited soft rot disease with ~60% incidence and experienced great losses.
A water-THF biphasic system containing N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) was found to enable the efficient synthesis of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) from a variety of sugars (simple to complex) using phosphated TiO2 as a catalyst. Fructose and glucose were selectively converted to HMF resulting in 98 %
In 2001, a new disease of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) caused by Erwinia rhapontici (Millard) Burkh. was detected in seed samples from southern Alberta, Canada. Infected seeds had pink or pinkish-brown lesions on the seed coat. The disease was found in great northern (cv. US1140), pink (cv.
