Okoth, Sheila A.Jefwa, J.M.Karanja, N.Kahindi, JHPMuya, EAOkoth, Peter F.Wachira, Peter M[Exploring the potential of beneficial soil fungi to enhance productivity in agricultural systems]Exploring the potential of beneficial soil fungi to enhance productivity in agricultural systems

The distribution of Trichoderma species in soils of Embu region in relation to land use practices was investigated. The study area was chosen because of its significant land use intensification. Soil washing and dilution plate techniques were used to recover Trichoderma spp from soil samples. The...


Okoth, Sheila A.Roimen, HMutsotso, BMuya, EAKahindi, JHPOwino, JOOkoth, Peter F.[Land use systems and distribution of Trichoderma species in Embu region, Kenya = Relación entre uso del suelo y la distribución de Trichoderma en la región de Embu, Kenia]Land use systems and distribution of Trichoderma species in Embu region, Kenya = Relación entre uso del suelo y la distribución de Trichoderma en la región de Embu, Kenia

A green house study was conducted to investigate the ability of an isolate of Trichoderma harzianum (P52) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in enhancing growth and control of a wilt pathogen caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici in tomato seedlings. The plants were grown in plastic...


Mwangi, MWMonda, EOOkoth, Sheila A.Jefwa, J.M.[Inoculation of tomato seedlings with Trichoderma harzianum and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and their effect on growth and control of wilt in tomato seedlings]Inoculation of tomato seedlings with Trichoderma harzianum and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and their effect on growth and control of wilt in tomato seedlings

Natural entomopathogenic nematodes (EPNs) are considered as potential biological control agents against soil-borne insect pests. This study was conducted to determine the impact of land use on the distribution, occurrence and diversity of entomopathogenic nematode community. Isolation of EPNs was...


Kawaka, JFKimenju, J.W.Ayodo, GMwaniki, SWMuoma, JOOkoth, Sheila A.Orinda, G.O.[Impact of land use on the distribution and diversity of entomopathogenic nematodes in embu and taita districts, kenya]Impact of land use on the distribution and diversity of entomopathogenic nematodes in embu and taita districts, kenya

An indigenous strain of Trichoderma spp. was tested for its ability to promote seed germination and growth of maize and bean seedlings grown in the field at Embu District, Kenya. The trial aws carried out for three seasons with the following treatments; two types of fertilizers, cow manure, and T...

Soil samples were collected from 8 land use types in Embu to study the effects of land use on soil chemical and physical parameters and on the occurrence of Trichoderma spp. The fungus was recovered from the soil using the dilution plate and soil washing technique. The remaining soil samples were...

Fusarium root rot of maize and beans is a common problem in Taita District, Kenya causing reduction in yields to the small scale farmers. The pathogen attacks maize and beans at all growth stages causing rot at the seedling stage, yellowing of the leaves, stunted growth, and death if severe. Pote...
