Abstract
In this study,we conducted a lab bioassay and field trial with Trichoderma asperellum and Trichoderma spp.against cucumber damping-off disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp.Cucumarinum.The result shows that the EC50 of Trichoderma against Fusarium oxysporum f.sp.Cucumeris was 535 spores/ml.We concluded that Trichoderma has a great efficacy against pathogens.The control rate on cucumber damping-off disease was 54.4%,Fusarium oxysporum(SChl) f.sp.cucumerinum was 89.5%.It was also found that the application of Trichoderma agent enhanced the cucumber flowering and yield.
