Description
Summary:The eight virulent strains of Fusariumoxysporumwhich cause wilt pepper dis-ease were screened for their abilities to produce pectinase and cellulaseen-zymes. F. oxysporum AUMC 11424, which was the most virulent strain, gave the highest activity of pectinase and cellulasetherefore, which showed a positive correlation between the disease severity and both pectinase and cellulase en-zymes. Moreover, the carrier formulations of antagonistic fungi (talc-based powder and rice-bran) were tested under greenhouse and field conditions and, the results revealed that the formulations of P. oxalicumAUMC 11419,A. verrucaria AUMC 11414, C. roseaAUMC 11442 and T.harzianumAUMC 11422 showed a highly reduction of disease severity (up to 80%)
