Effect of lipids from Mortierella hygrophila on plant resistance to phytopathogens
A mixture of fatty acid ethyl esters containing arachidonic acid (ARA) at 30% was isolated from Mortierella hygrophila and applied for a foliar treatment of plants. Field experiments revealed that the lipid preparation used at 0.3-0.5 mg per 100 m^sup 2^ of sown area decreased the development of lat...

Summary: | A mixture of fatty acid ethyl esters containing arachidonic acid (ARA) at 30% was isolated from Mortierella hygrophila and applied for a foliar treatment of plants. Field experiments revealed that the lipid preparation used at 0.3-0.5 mg per 100 m^sup 2^ of sown area decreased the development of late blight, common scrab, and rhizoctonoise of potato tubers, cercosporose of sugar beet, and powdery mildew of vine plants by 35-70% as compared to the untreated plants and resulted in a significant increase in the yield.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT] |
