Interactions of free living amoebae with the rice fungal pathogen, Rhizoctonia solani
... Objective: Rhizoctonia solani is a soil-borne fungal pathogen of many important crop plants. In rice, R. solani causes sheath blight disease, which results in devastating grain yield and quality losses. Few methods are ...
