Abstract
AbstractOzonized sunflower oil (oleozon) is an effective agent for controlling powdery mildew in cucumber. In this study, the mechanisms of oleozon in the control of powdery mildew were determined. The development of Podosphaera xanthii on cucumber leaves treated with oleozon (2%) and water was investigated at different times after inoculation. The germinating conidia, hyphae and conidiophores of the pathogen were severely damaged by oleozon. No visible phytotoxic effect was observed on cucumber after the application of oleozon. This compound had highly preventive effects as well as curative effects against powdery mildew based on in vivo potted seedling assays. The control effects of oleozon were further confirmed in a greenhouse trial. These results may provide a basis for further development of a natural fungicide against cucumber powdery mildew.
