[Method] By L4 （23）orthogonal design, the effects of combined application of two biocontrol agents against pepper blight and organic fertilizer on control effects against pepper blight and the yield of hot pepper were studied in greenhouse hot pepper base in Ledu County of Qinghai Province. [ Result] The effects of various factors affecting the relative control effect against pepper blight in sequence were biecontrol agent A5 〉 biecontrol agent B2 〉 organic fertilizer, and the optimal combination was organic fertilizer 1 800 kg/hm^2, agent B2 30 kg/hm^2 and agent A5 45 kg/hm^2. The effects on hot pepper yield in sequence were organic fertilizer 〉 biocontrol agent B2 〉 biocontrol agent AS, and the optimal combination was organic fertilizer 900 kg/hm^2 , agent 132 15 kg/hm^2, agent A5 22.5 kg/hm2. [ Conclusion] Combined with control effect of pepper blight and yield benefit, the application technique of biocontrol agents pro- moted in local hot pepper production could be confirmed as follows ： agent A5 45 kg/hm^2, agent B2 15 kg/hm^2, organic fertilizer 900 kg/hm^2 ; the field control effect at this moment could reach 76.31%, the yield could reach 35 573 kg/hm^2 , and the newly increased output value could be 13 029 yuan/hm^2 with input and output ratio of 1： 7.9.展开更多

Trichoderma viride WEBL0703 performed a high level of antagonistic activity toward a broad spectrum of phytopathogens and was determined as a biocontrol agent, which was produced by solid state fermentation using grape marc and wine lees. The maximum yield of T. viride conidia was up to 6.65 × 10^9 CFU/g initial dry substrate （IDS） after 10 d fermentation. As important enzymes for protecting plants from disease, chitinase, β-glucanase, and pectinase yields were 47.8 U/g IDS, 8.32 U/g IDS and 9.83 U/g IDS, respectively. These results show that it is feasible to convert winery wastes to a value-added and environmental friendly biocontrol agent.展开更多

[Method] With hyphal growth inhibition method, bacteriostatic activities of Bacil us subtilis and Osthole on strawberry anthracnose were measured and field test was carried out. [Result] The results show that both of Bacil us subtilis and Osthole were of higher bacteriostatic activity on strawberry anthracnose, and the values of EC50 were 0.007 5 mg/L and 1.063 0 ml/L, respectively. The result of field test show that the prevention effects of Bacil us subtilis （600-750 g/hm2） and 25% prochloraz （600 ml/hm2） both achieved higher than 76%, 7 and 14 d after triple medical applica-tions with rains sheltered or in open field. But the effects were of extremely signifi-cant differences with that of Osthole （1 800-2 700 ml/hm2） （P〈0.01）. [Conclusion] Bacil us subtilis can be made use of for control ing strawberry anthracnose.展开更多

Parasitoid wasps, a very large evolutionary group of hymenopteran insects, are well-known biological control agents for arthropod pests in agricultural and forest ecosystems. Here, we summarize the recent progress on the application of parasitoid wasps in biocontrol in China for the last five years. These include species diversity of parasitoid wasps, identification of dominant parasitoid wasps associated with insect pests and biocontrol practices(three types of biological control, i.e., classical, augmentative and conservation biological control) in several Chinese agroecosystems. We then treat different mass-rearing and release technologies and the commercialization of several parasitoid wasp species. We also summarize other work that may have a potential use in biocontrol, including the effect of plant volatiles on parasitoids and recent advance in the molecular mechanisms underlying the host regulation by parasitoid wasps. Future research area and applied perspectives are also discussed, noting that advances in biocontrol technologies in Chinese agriculture informs research at the global level.展开更多
