AB  - Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is one of the most important oil crops worldwide, including Serbia, where it is grown on about 200,000 ha with an average yield of 3 t/ha. Botrytis cinerea Pers. (1794) regularly occurs on sunflower seeds associated with the phenology of the host plant. However, sunflower seed is often affected by the Rhizopus spp., which causes similar symptoms on seed and seedlings as B. cinerea, and it is important to reliably differentiate those species based on morphological and molecular characteristics. The method used in this study for the detection of B. cinerea is described by ISTA method 7-003. The main task of this study was to isolate the causal agent of grey mould and rot of sunflower seed and seedlings. Infected seeds were covered with overgrown dark-grey mycelia with sporulation. In order to isolate the pathogen, the infected seed was transferred onto potato dextrose agar (PDA) and incubated for 7 days at 20°C. For morphological identification, 11 isolates were single-spored and subcultured onto PDA. Strains formed straight, noddy conidiophores, branched at the top and resembling a cluster with conidia. Conidia were ovoid or elliptical avg. 11.6 × 7.5 µm in size.

AB  - Biocontrol using plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) represents an alternative approach to disease management, since PGPR are known to promote growth and reduce diseases in various crops. Among the different PGPR, members of the genus Bacillus are prefered for most biotechnological uses due to their capability to form extremely resistant spores and produce a wide variety of metabolites with antimicrobial activity. The objective of this research was to identify antagonistic bacteria for management of the plant diseases. Eleven isolates of Bacillus spp. were obtained from the soil samples collected from different localities in the Province of Vojvodina. The antifungal activity of bacterial isolates against five fungal species was examined using a dual plate assay. Bacillus isolates exhibited the highest antifungal activity against Fusarium proliferatum, Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cepae and Alternaria padwickii, while they had the least antagonistic effect on Fusarium verticillioides and Fusarium graminearum. Molecular identification showed that effective bacterial isolates were identified as Bacillus safensis (B2), Bacillus pumilus (B3, B11), Bacillus subtilis (B5, B7) and Bacillus megaterium (B8, B9). The highest antagonistic activity was exhibited by isolates B5 (from 39% to 62% reduction in fungal growth) and B7 (from 40% to 71% reduction in fungal growth). These isolates of B. subtilis could be used as potential biocontrol agents of plant diseases.

AB  - Garlic (Allium sativum L.) is considered to be one of the oldest crops in the world. During 2016, infected garlic bulbs occurred in storages on several localities of the Province of Vojvodina. Symptomatic cloves showed typical rot symptoms such as softened and spongy areas covered with white fungal growth with deep lesions formed on the cloves which became dry over time. A total of 36 isolates of Fusarium species were obtained from diseased cloves of garlic. Colony morphology and microscopic properties of isolated Fusarium species were recorded from the cultures grown on PDA and CLA, respectively. Identification of two chosen isolates was performed by sequencing the EF-1α gene. The TEF sequence of isolate JBL12 showed 100% similarity with several F. tricinctum sequences and sequence of JBL539 showed 99% identity with several F. acuminatum sequences and they were deposited in the NCBI GenBank. Based on the results of the morphological and molecular identification, isolates JBL12 and JBL539 were identified as F. tricinctum and F. acuminatum, respectively, as new causal agents of garlic bulbs rot in Serbia. Specific primers were designed for the PCR identification of the F. tricinctum.
