A field experiment was conducted in the open field during the
autumn season in year 2015 to study the effect of spraying with two
organic fertilizers (Crop + Extra, Cremalga) on flowering and yield
parameters of cultivars cucumber Maximus F1.
This study is aimed at studying the effect of using four species of
bacteria Plant Growth Promotion Rhizobacteria (PGPR) Azotobacter
chroococcum, Rhizobium leguminosarum, Bacillus megaterium and
Frateuriaaurantia on the growth, yield and reducing
the effect of
Cucumber mosaic virus(CMV) on pepper plants in a greenhouse
experiment. The observed growth parameters were: plant height, foliage
fresh weight, root fresh weight, fruit weight in a green house expirment
in Tartous in the season 2016/2017.
This study aimed at studying the effect of using three species of
bacteria (PGPR) Azotobacter chroococcum Bacillus megaterium and
Frateuria aurantia in three inoculation manner ( seeds, shoots &
seed+shoots) on suppressed the effect of Cucumber mo
saic virus
(CMV) on tomato plants (pots), Some growth parameters such as plant
height, number of leaves on plant, foliage fresh weight, root fresh
weight were observed after 60 days. The experiment carried out in
2016 in a greenhouse in Tartus.
The study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of Pseudomonas chlororaphis MA342,
Serratia plymuthica HRO-C48K, Bacillus subtillis B2g, B. subtillis FZB27 to induce systemic
resistance in Tomato plants against Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) under
greenhouse conditions.
Tomato seeds submerged in suspension of Pseudomonas chlororaphis MA342, Serratia
plymuthica HRO-C48, Bacillus subtillis B2g and B. subtillis FZB27 9×109cfu . plants emerged
from these seed were inoculated with CMV after 10 days of planting. The time of beginning
symptoms was recorded, Disease incidence, disease severity, area under disease progress curve
AUDPC, progress of infection disease degrees during the study period were calculated using
virtual symptoms . pyroxidas enzyme activity was determined, Some growth parameters such as
Plant height, foliage fresh weight, root fresh weight , foliage dry weight, root dry weight were
observed after 30 DAI. Results of this study showed that seed treatment with Pseudomonas
chlororaphis MA342, Serratia .plymuthica HRO-C48, Bacillus subtillis B2g, B. subtillis FZB27
significantly decreased the diseases incidence on treated and inculated plants which ranged
between 40% - 66.66% ,compared with un treated and inculated control 93.33% Without the
presence of significant differences between the bacterial treatments. significantly decreased the
diseases severity on treated plants which ranged between 45.53 %- 62.2% compared with inculated
and un treated control 88.86% .Without the presence of significant differences between the
bacterial treatments. Peroxidas activity on treated plants increased by Compared with untreated
plants. Seed treatments with bacteria significantly increased the plant growth. The plant height ,
fresh and dry weight of foliage, fresh and dry weight of root on treated plants were significantly
higher than those of inculated and un-treated plants according to LSD 5%.where bacteria reduced
the rate of stunting and the rate of decline mild and dry weight of foliage and mild and dry weight
of the root occurring due to infection with the Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV).
The investigation was conducted during 2013-2014 in Al-Moroj - Baniyas - Tartous.
The effect of grafting cucumber (Hybrid Amir F1 and Potenza F1) on (TZ 148 F1)
rootstock on growth and production was studied. The experiment contained 4 treatments
(ungrafted Amir F1 and Potenza F1, and grafted ones on Cucurbita hybrid).
The results showed that grafted cucumber (Amir F1) on (TZ 148 F1) was significantly
superior to other treatments in leaf area (15368.79 cm2.plant-1) and total production (21.58
kg .m-2). Grafting cucumber (Potenza F1) on (TZ148 F1) leaded to a significant decrease in
each of plant height (113.25 cm), number of secondary branches (7.5 branch . plant-1),
number of female flowers (94.13 flower . plant-1), number of fruits (38.13 fruit . plant-1)
and total production (14.61 kg .m-2). The earliness in grafted cucumber (Amir F1 and
Potenza F1) on (TZ 148 F1) (0.19 and 0.28 kg .m-2 respectively) was significantly
decreased compared to ungrafted plants (0.43 and 0.54 kg .m-2 respectively). Grafting on
(TZ 148 F1) didn't affected the fruit qualitative characteristics.
The research was conducted in plastic green house for the 2013-2014, in Alqangerh
village, about 5 Km from the city of latakia, in order to study the effect of spraying the
leaves with some humic compounds and amino acids on growth and production o
f hybrids
of cucumber (Novo,Dorruk).
Spraying leaves with three organic fertilizers are (Huzone, Mol mixs), and two boats
Dbalin and Amino vega (an amino acid).
The results showed that all treatments of leaves spraying with organic fertilizer geve
better resultus with significant differences than the control treatment in all the studied traits
of both hybrids: (stem length, number of branches/plant, number of leaves/plant, leave area
cm2, the number of flowers on the stem, number of fruits on the stem, number of floral
branches, number of fruits on the branches).The treatment of spraying achieved with
mixture of humic compounds and amino acids increase with significant differences in both
the number of leaves/plant, number of branches/plant, the plant's stem length and number
of fruit on the stem in the hybrid Novo. while the treatment of spraying achieved of hiozon
increase with significant differences the number of branches/plant, the number flowers on
the branches and number of fruits on the branches was in the hybrid Dorok. As for the
early production and total production, the treatment of spraying with mixture of humic
compounds and amino acids with significant differences on other transaction when both
hybrids Novo and Dorruk amounted, respectivety (5 ، 4,1 kg/m2 ; 16 ، 14,8 kg/m2 ).
We studied in this research the systemic activity of fungicide carbendazim in
cucumber plants (Hybrid F1 Milton). The soil was treated with fungicide with
concentrations of 0.25 - 0.5 - 1.0 - 2.5 g active ingredient per kg of soil and the month-old
plants was sprayed (three true leaves) with the recommended concentration 0.25 active
ingredient per liter of water, half and double of concentration. Bioassay method was used
to detection the systemic activity of fungicide by putting the plant parts in direct contact
with sensitive fungus spores within petri dishes that containing PDA.
It has been detected the presence of carbendazim in the root , cotyledonary leaves
and first real leaf after 20 days from treatment the soil for all concentrations, as it was
observed the fungicide persistence in plants after forty days. In the spraying treatment, It
has been detected the presence of carbendazim after one day for all concentrations and for
the recommended and double concentration only after five, ten and twenty days of
spraying.
This study was conducted in the village of Almetrkyah located in the southern
coastal plain of Lattakia city during 2014. In order to study the effect of Cucumber mosaic
virus on growth and development of two varieties of peppers, hybrid ESTAR F1 H
(sweet
pepper) and Demer(spicy pepper). This study included eight treatments, four treatments
for each variety. Plants were mechanically inoculated in three different stages, preflowering
bloom, flowering andpost-flowering stages each beside its non-inoculated
control. The result should that, the appearance of Cucumber mosaic virus symptoms on
infected sweet hybrid, was within four days before its appearance on inoculated spicy
variety,symptoms were leaf crinkle, leaf deformation, yellow patches and plant stunting.
Inoculated plants showed reduction in number of leaves, number of branches and yield.
Plants in pre flowering bloom stage were more effected by virus infection in both
varieties. Meannumber of leaves per plant of ESTAR F1 H hybrid were 130 in pre
flowering bloom stage compared with 170 leaf/plant in the control treatment. Mean
number of branches per plant of ESTAR F1 H hybrid were 43,4 branch/plant in pre
flowering bloom stage compared with 56,7branch/plant in the control treatment. Total
pepper production per plant was 700,8g in infected plants in preflowering bloom stage
compared with 1267,5g/plant in ESTAR F1 H hybrid control. Results of Demer variety
take the same results of ESTAR F1 H hybrid. The effect of virus infection on pepper plants
were reduced when inoculation were done during flowering stage and post-flowering stage,
differences were significant between inoculated plants in both varieties.
The research aims to Identify some species of aphids on plant families, and test the
possibility of transfer to the local isolate of Cucumber mosaic virus. Two species of aphids
in bean fields and citrus orchards have been defined, namely: Black be
an aphid Aphis
fabae and Cotton aphid Aphis gossypii, respectively, depending on the specialized
classification keys. The infection proved vital feedback and testing the function using
plants: Nicotiana tabacum and Chenopodium quinoa transfer each of the A. fabae and A.
gossypii local isolate of Cucumber mosaic virus.
A field survey of Pepper mild mottle (PMMV) and Cucumber mosaic (CMV)
Viruses was conducted in some plantation areas in Tartous and Lattakia Provinces. A total
of 1278 samples (782 from Tartous and 505 from Lattakia) were collected. Results of
Tis
sue Blot Immunobinding Assay showed the presence of PMMV in 0.39% and CMV in
11.42% in the collected samples. The percentage of CMV varied in Tartous and Lattakia
Provinces. In this study, PMMV was not recorded in Lattakia, whereas it was recorded in
Tartous in a small percentage (0.64%).
Using Tissue Blot Immunobinding Assay, the collected seeds from the infected
pepper fruits from Tartous fields showed the transmission of PPMV throughseeds in a ratio
of 0.70% to 0.87% according to seed resources, whereas CMV was transmitted in a high
percentage of 2.81% to 7.98% according to seed resources. PPMV was not recorded in leaf
samples or in seeds taken from Blozah District in TartousProvince.
