Management of Green Mold Disease in White Button Mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) and Its Yield Improvement

mycolabadmin

Green mold is a serious problem for farmers growing white button mushrooms, often destroying entire crops. This research tested various fungicide treatments to find the most effective ways to control the mold while keeping the mushrooms healthy and productive. The study found that certain chemicals like captan and carbendazim work best at specific concentrations, allowing farmers to get better harvests while protecting their crops.

Acid Phosphatase Produced by Trichoderma harzianum in Solid Fermentation Using Millet

mycolabadmin

Researchers used a fungus called Trichoderma harzianum grown on millet grain to produce phosphatase enzymes, which help convert unavailable phosphorus in soil into forms that plants can use. By carefully controlling the amount of millet, moisture, and fungal starter culture, they achieved significantly higher enzyme production than previous methods. This inexpensive, sustainable approach could improve soil fertility and plant growth in agriculture.

Bio-stimulants for plant growth promotion and sustainable management of Rhizoctonia Solani causing black scurf of potato tubers

mycolabadmin

Researchers tested natural treatments called bio-stimulants to help potato plants fight black scurf disease caused by a fungus called Rhizoctonia solani. They found that combining mycorrhizal fungi with seaweed extract was the most effective at reducing disease and improving potato quality. These natural treatments can enhance plant growth and tuber yield while reducing the need for chemical fungicides, making them valuable for sustainable potato farming.

Integrated use of biochar, Cassia fistula, and Trichoderma for sustainable management of Sclerotium rolfsii in chickpea

mycolabadmin

This study demonstrates that combining rice husk biochar with Cassia fistula plant extract and beneficial Trichoderma fungus effectively controls a destructive soil disease in chickpea crops. The combined treatment reduced disease occurrence by nearly 50% while improving plant growth and soil health. This eco-friendly approach offers farmers a sustainable alternative to chemical fungicides for protecting their chickpea crops.

Integrated use of biochar, Cassia fistula, and Trichoderma for sustainable management of Sclerotium rolfsii in chickpea

mycolabadmin

Researchers tested a natural approach to protect chickpea crops from a harmful soil fungus called Sclerotium rolfsii. They combined three natural substances: charred rice husks (biochar), an extract from the Cassia fistula plant, and a beneficial fungus called Trichoderma harzianum. The results showed this combination significantly reduced disease by 45% while also making plants grow stronger and healthier, offering farmers an eco-friendly alternative to chemical fungicides.

Integrated use of biochar, Cassia fistula, and Trichoderma for sustainable management of Sclerotium rolfsii in chickpea

mycolabadmin

This study shows how combining three natural substances—rice husk biochar (a carbon-rich soil additive), Cassia fistula plant extract, and a beneficial fungus called Trichoderma harzianum—can effectively protect chickpea crops from a harmful soil disease called collar rot. The combination not only reduced disease occurrence from 64% to 35% but also improved plant growth and strengthened plants’ natural defense mechanisms. This eco-friendly approach offers farmers a sustainable alternative to chemical fungicides while improving soil health and crop productivity.
