Coping With Brown Spot And Root Rots Of Lupins, Mark Sweetingham
Coping With Brown Spot And Root Rots Of Lupins, Mark Sweetingham
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
There is increasing concern that brown spot and root diseases may limit the long term viability of lupin cultivation in close rotations in the agricultural areas of Western Australia. Research has found several useful strategies to reduce the impact of brown spot and Pleiochaeta root rot so that losses can be kept to a minimum. Rhizoctonia has proved more difficult to combat. Although less widespread than Pleiochaeta, it has caused severe losses and appears to be increasing in incidence, particularly in the northern wheatbelt. Research has vastly expanded our knowledge of the strains of Rhizoctonia present in our soils and …

Dominance Relationships Of Cycloheximide-Resistant Mutants Of Schizophyllum Commune Fr., Marjorie Meier Eerdmans, Sally A. Amundson, Todd A. Reinhart, Keith K. Klein
Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science
We have isolated several mutants of Schizophyllum commune Fr. able to grow on media containing cycloheximide in concentrations up to 30 mg/L. Genetic analyses of the resistant phenotypes show them to be due to the action of a single gene located on the first linkage group between the A-mating type factor and a gene for an adenine requirement (ade-ll). We have analyzed the growth and development of dikaryons made homoallelic for either the resistant or sensitive alleles as well as the heteroallelic dikaryon. These dikaryons showed different abilities to fruit when placed on media containing various concentrations of cycloheximide. Homoallelic …
