Figure 3: Effect of tuber treatment, 24 h prior inoculation with Fusarium spp., with 20 isolates of potato-associated fungi on Fusarium dry rot penetration noted after 21 days of incubation at 25°C as compared to the controls. Bars affected by the same letter are not significantly different according to Duncan's multiple range test at P = 0.05. IC: Untreated and inoculated control; NIC: Untreated and uninoculated control. Inoculation was performed using mixed inoculum composed of F. sambucinum and F. solani. Penicilliumspp: E.36.11, E.29.11, E.37.11, E.16.11, and E.44.11 were isolated from tubers; E.39.11 was isolated from roots and E.45.11, E.40.11 were isolated from stems. Aspergillusspp.: E.41.11, E.42.11, E.47.11, E.13.11, E.33.11, E.25.11, E.61.11, E.60.11, E.2.11, E.5.11, E.68.11 were isolated from tubers and E.8.11 was isolated from stems.
