Two pathogenic isolates of Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn causing stem canker/black scurf disease of potato plants and four antagonist isolates, two of binucleate Rhizoctonia and two of Trichoderma harzianum Rifai were isolated from crop fields and evaluated in vitro for their fungicidal responses against eight fungicides. Vitavax was effective in inhibiting the growth of R. solani and binucleate Rhizoctonia but it did not inhibit the growth of T. harzianum at 100 ppm concentration. Terraclor Super X, Dithane M 45 and Boric acid are the fungicides which at 100 ppm concentration did not inhibit the growth of antagonist isolates of T. harzianum and binucleate Rhizoctonia but inhibited the growth of isolates of R. solani to some extent. The in vitro findings suggest that any one of these three fungicides along with antagonist isolates of binucleate Rhizoctonia and T. harzianum can be used as biocontrol agents to reduce soil borne inocula of R. solani.

Comprehensive Survey

A survey of anastomosis groups (AG) of Rhizoctonia spp. associated with potato diseases was conducted in South Africa. In total, 112 Rhizoctonia solani and 19 binucleate Rhizoctonia (BNR) isolates were recovered from diseased potato plants, characterized for AG and pathogenicity. The AG identity of the isolates was confirmed using phylogenetic analysis of the internal transcribed spacer region of ribosomal DNA. R. solani isolates recovered belonged to AG 3-PT, AG 2-2IIIB, AG 4HG-I, AG 4HG-III, and AG 5, while BNR isolates belonged to AG A and AG R, with frequencies of 74, 6.1, 2.3, 2.3, 0.8, 12.2, and 2.3%, respectively. R. solani AG 3-PT was the most predominant AG and occurred in all the potato-growing regions sampled, whereas the other AG occurred in distinct locations. Different AG grouped into distinct clades, with high maximum parsimony and maximum-likelihood bootstrap support for both R. solani and BNR. An experiment under greenhouse conditions with representative isolates from different AG showed differences in aggressiveness between and within AG. Isolates of AG 2-2IIIB, AG 4HG-III, and AG R were the most aggressive in causing stem canker while AG 3-PT, AG 5, and AG R caused black scurf. This is the first comprehensive survey of R. solani and BNR on potato in South Africa using a molecular-based approach. This is the first report of R. solani AG 2-2IIIB and AG 4 HG-I causing stem and stolon canker and BNR AG A and AG R causing stem canker and black scurf on potato in South Africa.

Rhizoctonia disease (black scurf of tubers and stem canker) of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kühn was first recorded in South Africa in 1918 (3). Although the sclerotial form on tubers is one of the most common potato diseases in the country, it is not known which anastomosis groups (AGs) of R. solani are involved. Between 1999 and 2001, R. solani was isolated from 28 plant and 56 soil samples collected in 7 (Eastern Free State, Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga, Northern Cape, and Sandveld) of the 14 potato-production regions of South Africa and screened for hyphal anastomosis with tester strains of R. solani AG-1 to AG-10 according to Carling et al. (1). Of the 411 isolates from tubers with black scurf symptoms, 408 were AG-3 and three were AG-5. Symptomless tubers yielded two AG-3 isolates and three AG-5 isolates. Of 39 isolates from symptomatic stems and roots, 32 were AG-3, five were AG-4, and two were AG-5. Of the 127 isolates obtained from soil, 86, 28, 7, 3, and 3 were AG-3, AG-4, AG-5, AG-7, and AG-8, respectively. More than one AG was isolated from five of the seven regions. Virulence of 40 isolates representative of the above AGs was determined in triplicate on sprouts growing from seed tubers of potato cultivar Up-to-Date in a sand/soil mixture as described by Carling and Leiner (2) but using cultures grown in cornmeal/sand instead of colonized agar disks as inoculum. Damage to sprouts (lesions, girdling, and death) was assessed after 28 days at 16 to 28°C according to the 0 to 4 rating scale (2). Chi-square analysis of the data indicated that AG-3 was the most virulent, with isolates from sclerotia on tubers and lesions on stems more aggressive than those from symptomless tubers or soil. AG-4 and AG-5 caused significantly less disease than AG-3, but none of the AG-7 and AG-8 isolates showed any virulence to potato sprouts. References: (1) D. E. Carling et al.

Development of black scurf on potato tubers (cv. Nicola) was compared in plants inoculated with isolates of Rhizoctonia solani of three anastomosis groups (AG2-1, AG3 and AG5) which occur in potato crops in Finland. All isolates induced stem canker lesions but only isolates of AG3 formed efficiently black scurf on progeny tubers. Among the AG2-1 and AG5 isolates tested, only one AG2-1 isolate formed a few sclerotia on 13.5 % of the progeny tubers in one experiment. The data indicate that isolates of AG3 differ from those of AG2-1 and AG5 in having a higher ability to form sclerotia on tubers. Therefore, while AG2-1 and AG5 isolates have a broader host range, AG3 is more efficient in producing black scurf, which provides this anastomosis group with more efficient means of dissemination on seed potatoes. These differences probably explain the predominance of AG3 (98.9 % of isolates) in potato crops in Finland and other northern potato production areas.;

The study aimed to test a multifunctional technology for potatoes’ biological protection using Phytop 26.82 against black scurf (Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn) and Colorado potato beetle in Western Siberia. The experiment was conducted with the medium-maturing variety “Kemerovchanin.” The product tested was Phytop 26.82. The research methodology was carried out both in laboratory conditions and in the field. In the laboratory, the biological product was used on potato leaves and Colorado potato beetle larvae. The authors revealed the degree of influence of the natural effect Phytop 26.82 on the Colorado potato beetle’s larvae of different ages. The larvae were counted on the 5th, 7th, and 10th days of the experiment. In the field, the authors also revealed the level of the immunogenic effect of the bioagent Phytop 26.82 on the Rhizoctonia stem canker (Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn). The morphological parameters of the Kemerovchanin potato variety were observed during the course of this study. The results of the study showed that the microbial mixture Phytop 26.82 made it possible to increase the biomass of plants by 1.5–1.8 times due to an increase in the length of the aerial part (by 10%), the number of stems (1.2–1.7 times), and the number of stolons (1.5–1.6 times) compared to control. Under the bioagent, Phytop 26.82, Rhizoctonia stem canker on the stems decreased by 45% overall counting weeks. The effectiveness of the bioagent Phytop 26.82 reached 100% in two aspects. One of them was the effectiveness of a biological product in the Colorado potato beetle’s obliteration (Leptinotarsa decemlineata). The second direction of significance was the fight against the black scurf. The use of a mixture of bioagents of the Phytop 26.82 preparation can simultaneously have an insecticidal, fungicidal, and growth-stimulating effect on potatoes.
