Characterization of Rhizoctonia solani from potato in Great Britain
TL;DR: This is the first investigation which provides evidence of the relative AG composition of R. solani populations causing disease in potato crops in Great Britain.

Effect of Dose Rate of Azoxystrobin and Metconazole on the Development of Fusarium Head Blight and the Accumulation of Deoxynivalenol (DON) in Wheat Grain
TL;DR: It is concluded that fungicides, applied for the control of FHB, affect DON concentrations indirectly by influencing the amount of trichothecene-producing Fusarium species present in wheat grain, and there was no evidence that fungicide applications directly increase the concentration of DON in grain.

Effect of artificial culture media on germination, growth, virulence and surface properties of the entomopathogenic hyphomycete Metarhizium anisopliae.
TL;DR: Although the addition of KC1 to Sabouraud dextrose agar (SDAM) significantly reduced germination of the conidia of three isolates in vitro and lowered germination and appressorial development on the cuticles of Myzus persicae and Meligethes aeneus, conidia grown on SDAM and minimal medium (MM) were more aggressive than conidia derived from SDA or yeast extract agar.

Infection of potato by Rhizoctonia solani: effect of anastomosis group.
TL;DR: Yield losses were greatest and tuber numbers smallest in plots inoculated with an AG8 isolate, suggesting that root infection is important in determining quantitative yield loss.

Effect of foliar‐applied potassium chloride on septoria leaf blotch of winter wheat
TL;DR: The effect of foliar-applied potassium chloride on Septoria tritici, the anamorph of Mycosphaerella graminicola, was quantified and possible modes of action investigated, suggesting that the control provided by potassium chloride may be achieved by adverse osmotic effects on the pathogen.
