Liming with dolomite reduces the efficacy of the biocontrol fungus Trichoderma koningiopsis against cabbage clubroot El encalado con cal dolomítica reduce la eficacia del biocontrolador Trichoderma koningiopsis sobre la hernia de las crucíferas
RESUMEN Cabbage clubroot is a major constraint for the production of cruciferous species. This research aim at exploring the effect of Trichoderma koningiopsis (as the wettable powder formulated product Tricotec®) and dolomite on the disease and crop growth of cabbage. This study was carried out in a field with a prolonged history of clubroot incidence. The trial was set up in a randomized complete block design with five repetitions. The following treatments were applied: 0) absolute control; 1 and 2) liming with dolomite at 1.0 and 2.1 t ha -1 ; 3) Tricotec® at 200 g ha -1 ; 4) combination of treatments 1 and 3; 5) combina tion of treatments 2 and 3. The treatment with just Tricotec ® applications gave the lowest disease incidence and severity and the heaviest plant dry weight. Joint applications of Tricotec ® and dolomite at 2.1 t ha -1 reduced the crop growth variables and had the highest disease intensity. The Trichoderma concentration in the soil was increased by a factor of 10 in the plots that received just Tricotec®, but not in the limed plots. These results showed that T. koningiopsis, in a Tricotec® formulation, is a promising candidate for the control of cabbage clubroot and that its biological activity is affected by dolomite when applied jointly at 2.1 t ha -1 .
