| Abstract/Contents: | "Rhizoctonia solani is a ubiquitous soilborne fungal pathogen causing pre- and post-emergence damping off, root rots and aerial blights of economically important crops, forest trees, ornamentals and turfgrasses, as well decay of postharvest fruits and vegetables. Soilborne pathogens have traditionally been controlled using chemical pesticides, some of which are inconsistent in efficacies and toxic to the environment. Also, prolonged use of fungicides can result in development of pathogenic resistance. As a result, eco-friendly management using safer chemicals is being sought to control plant diseases. Plants can be considered as renewable reservoirs of secondary metabolites, some of which are antimicrobial (i.e., biorationals) in nature. Some of these chemicals are less toxic to animals and plants, more systemic, easily biodegradable, and stimulate host plant metabolism. Since PEs and modified plant chemicals are considered Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) chemicals, we have tested thirty PEs and synthetic derivatives of plant chemicals using poisoned food and filter disk techniques against broad host range isolates of R. solani (AG 4). While several PEs were confirmed to be fungicidal or fungistatic in the in vitro bioassays, we also demonstrated that some PEs are effective soil amendments for the control of pre- and postemergence damping off of cucumber seedlings caused by R. solani in the greenhouse." |
