Tinatin DOOLOTKELDİEVA | Saykal BOBUŞOVA | Sezim COLDOŞBEKOVA

We report on the enzootic foci of the insect pathogenic fungus, Beauveria bassiana, found in high meadows in the middle mountain steppes of Kyrgyzstan, at elevations from 1000 m to 2200 m. The growth characteristics of various B. bassiana isolates on different media and as a function of temperature were studied. In addition, the ability of the fungal isolates to produce enzymes with amylase, protease and lipase activities was investigated. Dense biomass production on inexpensive solid media (oatmeal and bean oil meal) produced conidia used for insect bioassays targeting white grub larvae (Phyl ...Более

In October 2020, the presence of an intense Fusarium dry rot disease was detected during a survey of potato tubers in the production storage facilities in Chui region, Kyrgyzstan. The species of Fusarium isolates, obtained from infected tubers, were identified as Fusarium sambucinum by using morphological features and phylogenetic analyses of the transcription elongation factor 1-alpha (EF1-alpha) gene. The isolates were pathogenic to potato tubers, and Koch
