The objectives of this study were to understand the effects of ontogeny on the expression and inheritance of resistance of sorghum (Sorghum hieolor [L.] Moench) to Colletotrichum graminicola (Ces.)Wils., the causal agent of anthracnose. Two resistant cuItivars (SC326-fi and SC599-11E) and two sus...

Fifty-five samples of diseased cassava (Manihot esculenta) crowns and shoots and discoloured chips were collected from Benin and Cameroon, Africa. Pieces of infected tissue were cultured on agar and incubated for a week. Over 36% of fungal isolates were Fusarium spp. Of the Fusarium isolates, 55%...

Sixty-two IITA and local cowpea lines/varieties were field evaluated without artificial inoculation, for their natural resistance to fungal diseases at fumesus in the forest ecology of Ghana in 1986. Of these, 30 lines were apparently resistant to multiple diseases, 19 were moderately resistant, ...

Field surveys were conducted in 2012 and 2013 to evaluate the distribution and virulence of fungal isolates associated with tuber rot disease among yam (Dioscorea spp.) producing agroecological zones (AEZs) of Nigeria. A total of 70 and 66 farmers’ fields were surveyed in 2012 and 2013, respectiv...

Tuber rot disease is a major constraint to white yam (Dioscorea rotundata) production, accounting for 50-60% of annual yield losses in Nigeria. The main method of control using synthetic fungicides is being discouraged due to human and environmental health hazards. The potential of Oryza sativa h...
