Identification And Characterization Of Fusarium Species From Paddy, Sugarcane And Maize

Most of the plant pathogenic Fusarium spp. associated with paddy, sugarcane and maize are members of section Liseola or Gibberella fujikuroi species complex which mostly could not be identified or characterized accurately by only using one approach. Hence, morphological, mating studies and molecular...
