Fusarium wilt

Fusarium wilt is a dangerous fungal disease affecting a wide range of crops: from grain crops and soy to vegetables and ornamental plants. The causative agents of this infection trigger root and stem rots, vascular wilting, and a significant decrease in the productivity of agroecosystems. The urgency of combating this pathogen is due to the ability of fungi of the genus Fusarium to persist in the soil and spread rapidly under unfavorable climatic conditions, which makes infection control an essential element of modern agricultural technology.

This collection contains materials on the diagnosis and protection methods of various agricultural and ornamental crops against Fusarium infections. You will find scientific data on the efficacy of fungicides, the specifics of microbiological soil reclamation, and technologies for fumigating greenhouse soil. In addition, the articles cover the mechanisms of applying biological preparations based on Trichoderma fungi, techniques for assessing the species composition of pathogens, and comprehensive preventive measures aimed at increasing plant resistance in open-field and protected ground conditions.
