Interaction efficiency of Trichoderma spp. and some plant extracts against ear-cockle disease Al-Taie Azher Hameed Faraj, Al-Zubaid Noor Kadhum Journal of Applied Biology and Biotechnology, 2022 Ear-cockle disease is one of the important aerial diseases of wheat. It is caused by wheat seed gall nematode Anguina tritici. This study aimed to evaluate the interaction effect between Trichoderma spp. as bioagents and some plant extracts. The latter are used as alternative substances to control the seed gall nematode in both laboratory and field conditions. The bioassay of juveniles in the second stage (J2) of A. tritici was conducted using the biopesticide Biocont-T-WP (Trichoderma harzianum), isolate of Trichoderma hamatum T-113, and nematic and seaweed extract for their effect on the viability of A. tritici J2. nematicide Rugby 100 has been used as a positive control. The lab-bioassay was achieved on the daily accumulated J2 mortality percentage during 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 days of incubation, while the field-bioassay was evaluated for wheat growth, yield, and infection attributes. The lab-bioassay showed that Biocont-T has a higher mortality effect followed by the nematic extract with averages of 40.56% and 12.52%, respectively. The accumulative J2 mortality percentage increased gradually and reached a maximum on the 11th day of incubation. In the field-bioassay, mixing wheat seed Ibaa-99 with Biocont-T decreased infection percentage 77.7% and the number of galls spike–1 to 1.63 compared to the control 5.66 galls spike–1.
Methods of plant growth-promoting fungi application to enhance the growth and yield of wheat var. Ibaa99 Al-Taie, A. H., Khadhum, N., Javaid, A. Malaysian Journal of Microbiology, 2022 The main aim of the study was to evaluate some methods of application of Aspergillus niger AD1 and Trichoderma hamatum T-113 for enhancing the growth and yield of wheat var. Ibaa99 in pots and field conditions.

Wheat seeds were sown in pots and field plots during 2018-2019, and data regarding various growth and yield attributes were recorded. In both pot and field trials, the results revealed that the best treatments for the desired plant growth and yield attributes were peat moss 150 mL alone or in combination with soil and seed treatments. The soil physicochemical parameters were also improved after inoculation with selected fungal isolates in different application methods compared with un-inoculated control treatment in both pot and field conditions.
Indirect Effect of Some Insecticides on Tomato Early Blight (Alternaria solani) Under Laboratory and Greenhouse Conditions Abdel Nabi A.A Matrood, , Abdelhak Rhouma, Azhar Hameed Al- Taie, , and Arab Journal of Plant Protection, 2022 Matrood, A.A.A., A. Rhouma and A.H.F. Al-Taie. 2022. Indirect Effect of Some Insecticides on Tomato Early Blight (Alternaria solani) Under Laboratory and Greenhouse Conditions. Arab Journal of Plant Protection, 40(3): 231-239. https://doi.org/10.22268/AJPP-40.3.231239 Early blight disease is one of the serious diseases of tomato caused by Alternaria solani. In some instances, annual economic yield loss due to this disease was estimated at 80%. Currently, pesticide applications are used for the management of early blight disease due to the lack of resistant cultivars. The effect of treatment of the susceptible tomato cultivar Super Marmond with three insecticides (Diazinon, Match® 050 EC and Vertimec®) was evaluated under laboratory and greenhouse conditions. In vitro assay showed that the pesticide Vertimec® (at a concentration of 300 ppm) was the most effective against A. solani with mycelial growth inhibition above 93%, inhibition of fungal sporulation to 0.26x103 spores/ml, and spore germination inhibition of 98.79%. In addition, there was a reduction in A. solani spores and their dry weight (0.0144 mg) in the presence of Vertimec®. In greenhouse experiments, when Vertimec® was used curatively on tomato leaves against A. solani, it lowered significantly disease severity (20.33%). The effect of this insecticide was not limited only to the protection of tomato plants but it also improved their growth by increasing the tomato shoot fresh and dry weights (21.94 g and 3.85 g, respectively) as well as the root fresh and dry weight (3.84 g and 0.89 g, respectively). Based on the results obtained, it can be concluded that Vertimec® could be used for early blight management when the tomato crop is also infested with insect pests. Keywords: Alternaria solani, early blight, insecticide, tomato.
Allelopathy Effect of Trichoderma spp. and Some Plant Extracts against Pythium aphanidermatum (In-vitro) A. H. Al-Taie, N. K. Al-Zubaidi, Musa K. Al-Shammary Indian Journal of Agricultural Research, 2020 Background: Serious seed-borne and soil-borne pathogens are existing at the rhizosphere area, many species of Pythium can cause seed rot and damping-off disease. The application of plant extracts and biological agents as alternative ways for the management of plant diseases has recently become an important variable component for Integrated Pest Management, so plant metabolites regarded as eco-friendly where plants play an important role in the control of diseases. The current study amid to evaluate the allelopathy effect of two species of biological agents particularly Trichoderma spp. and some plant extracts against the soil-borne pathogen P. aphanidermatum on cucumber seedlings under laboratory conditions. Methods: In this study laboratory investigation during 2018, used the allelopathy effect of two species of Trichoderma (T. harzianum and T. hamatum) and five plant extracts, in Three conc. 10.000, 20.000 and 30.000 ppm, to control damping-off disease in cucumber caused by Pythium aphanidermatum instead of using chemicals fungicides. Result: Our study observed that Trichoderma spp., have a high inhibitory effect on the tested pathogen, but in the assay of plant extracts, only some with different concentrations had a significant effect against P. aphanidermatum (in-vitro). Cinnamomum cassia, Syzygium aromaticum and Eucalyptus globulus were most affective from all other five tested plant extracts, where the concentration of 30.000 ppm gave the highest inhibitory effect against P. aphanidermatum, while Psidium guajava and Lawsonia inermis extracts showed a lower inhibitory effect on radial growth of P. aphanidermatum.
Use of Neem leaves as soil amendment for the control of collar rot disease of chickpea Iqra Haider Khan, Arshad Javaid, Azher Hameed Al-Taie, Dildar Ahmed Egyptian Journal of Biological Pest Control, 2020 Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is an important grain legume that is attacked by the fungal pathogen, Sclerotium rolfsii, responsible for collar rot disease. In the present study, the pathogen was isolated from diseased chickpea seedlings and identified on molecular basis using internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and β-tubulin markers. To control this pathogen, an in vivo study was carried out, using Neem (Azadirachta indica A. Juss.) leaf dry biomass (1, 2, and 3%) as soil amendment. A broad-spectrum fungicide mancozeb was selected as a reference and the data regarding plant growth and mortality rates were calculated. In positive control, the highest seedling mortality (56%) was recorded in comparison to negative control (0%) after 30 days of sowing. In 1, 2, and 3% concentrations of A. indica dry leaf biomass, the seedling mortalities were 49, 38, and 38%, respectively. On the other hand, the mancozeb-treated seedlings showed the lowest plant mortality rate (28%). Soil treatments with mancozeb as well as with 1 and 2% leaf biomass concentrations showed marked differences in root and shoot dry biomasses over positive control. In a laboratory bioassay, methanolic leaf extract of Neem of 0.5 to 3.5% concentrations reduced biomass of S. rolfsii by 86–90% over control. The present study concluded that 2% A. indica leaf amendment was the most useful concentration for management of collar rot disease of chickpea.
