Abstract

The ethylene production of severalFusarium species and formae speciales in vitro was measured under comparable conditions. All of them produced ethylene.Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht. ex Fr. f.tulipae Apt. produced much more than the other 18 strains investigated.

Samenvatting

Aangezien er aanwijzingen zijn dat ethyleen een rol speelt bij de aantasting van de tulpebol doorFusarium, werd de ethyleenproduktie van diverse soorten en formae speciales vanFusarium onder standaardvoorwaarden in vitro vergeleken. Alle onderzochteFusarium spp. en vormen vanFusarium produceerden ethyleen.Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht. ex Fr. f.tulipae Apt. bleek in vergelijking met 18 andere getoetste soorten en formae speciales enige duizenden malen meer ethyleen te produceren.
