Abstract

Mycocentrospora acerina (Hartig) Deighton can kill or suppress the growth of Viola arvensis (Murr.) in spring wheat in pot-grown plants in both glasshouse and outdoor studies. The level of damage to V. arvensis and the effect on its competition with wheat were affected by inoculum density and environmental conditions. High inoculum density (105 macroconidia/ml) caused high mortality in V. arvensis and eliminated its competitive effect on wheat. At a lower density (104 macroconidia/ml), the V. arvensis fresh weight and its competition with the wheat were suppressed by up to 38 and 28% respectively, depending on environmental conditions.
