Abstract

Nowadays, control of plant pathogens and weeds is more difficult and expensive than in the past. In last decades, due to adoption of inappropriate management methods and excessive use of agrochemicals, the soil fauna and flora threatened. Accordingly, many of ecologists and plant pathologists tried to find some alternative methods of pest and pathogen control. Soil solarization is of these approaches that is widely used against soil pathogens. This is an ecofriendly and safe as well as low cost and efficient method which can be used to control the plant pathogens, pests and weeds. As a part of integrated pest management program, this approach applies the ecological principles to protect the environment and reduce the hazards of pesticides. In this review, we have described the history and benefits of soil solarization and also the principles of this method

Abstract

Azami-Sardouei Z., Fekrat  F. and  Ghalavand F. 2017. A review on the application of benzothiadiazole in plant diseases management. Plant Pathology Science 6(2):33-42.

The use of plant defense activators is a novel method of plant diseases management in recent years. Benzothiadiazole (BTH), is the first synthetic plant defense activator. In general, Benzothiadiazole has no direct effect against the pathogens, but it can activate the systemic acquired resistance (SAR) in plants, against a number of plant diseases. In addition, BTH widely is used to protect the plants against a range of pathogens on wheat, tomato, bean, tobacco, lettuce, banana and pears. In overall, Benzothiadiazole can be used as a safe and reliable product for plant protection and also as an alternative for chemical pesticides, which they have hazardous effects on environment.

Abstract

Fekrat F, Ghaderi R (2020) Assessment of the structure of the nematode community as an index for soil health. Plant Pathology Science 9(2):129-136. DOI: 10.2982/PPS.9.2.129.
By studying the structure of the nematode community, healthy and unhealthy soils can be identified in terms of biodiversity and nutrient network. This information is useful for managing soil nutrient networks. The study of the nematode population structure as a biological indicator of soil health is based on the assessment of biodiversity indices, nutrition groups, population dynamics, soil nutrient network profile, biomass and metabolic profile. Practical applications for studying the structure of nematode populations in agricultural and natural ecosystems are described.
