Influence of Cultural Media, Temperature, and pH on the Growth Characteristics of Alternaria brassicicola Isolated from Cauliflower

Kalpna, Vijay Kumar, Gurusimran Kaur & Anuj Prasad · Journal of Scientific Research and Reports · 2025

The genus Alternaria is among the most predominant plant pathogens, recognised as a major constraint to crop productivity extending from 10–70% in India and a catastrophic cause of yield losses among brassicaceous crops. The experiment was conducted to assess the in-vitro effects...

Influence of Cultural Media, Temperature and pH on the Growth Characteristics of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. dianthi Isolated from Carnation

Anuj Prasad, Vijay Kumar, Kalpna, K.C. Singh & Mamta Bohra · Journal of Scientific Research and Reports · 2026

Fusarium is a large genus of filamentous, soil-dwelling ascomycetous fungi. While most species are harmless saprobes and commonly found in soil, some cause diseases in a variety of crops, including cereals, pulses, fruits, ornamentals, and vegetables. The fungi block the vascular...

Biocontrol-based Eco-friendly Management of Fusarium Wilt in Carnation: A Review

Vijay Kumar, Mamta Bohra, Anuj Prasad & Kalpna · Journal of Scientific Research and Reports · 2026

Biocontrol-based eco-friendly management is not merely the substitution of a chemical input with a microbial product. Rather, it involves aligning multiple biological mechanisms—competition for nutrients and infection sites, antibiosis, mycoparasitism, modification of the rhizosp...
