The aims of this study were: (i) determining the primary inoculum source of <em>Fusarium solani<\/em>, the cause of pistachio seedling death, (ii) testing the effectiveness of some chemical and biological control methods. The results showed that the pistachio seeds are the main source of infection, where the disease incidence was 42.86% when using unsterilized seeds obtained from the nursery, while there weren\u2019t any infected plants in all treatments which not subjected to artificial infection. The infection by <em>F. solani<\/em> significantly reduced the average of plant height, vegetative weight and root weight compared to the control under artificial infection conditions. On the other hand, the efficacy of pistachio seed treatment with Carbendazim and Thiophanate \u2013 methyl (Topsin) fungicides and spore suspension of <em>Trichoderma harzianum<\/em> in reducing the disease incidence was 83.71%, 45.69% and 38.89% respectively. Treatment with <em>Trichoderma<\/em> and Carbenazim significantly increased the studied growth parameters, while treatment with Thiophanate &#8211; methyl did not have any positive effect on plant growth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;\"><strong>Key words:<\/strong> <em>Fusarium solani<\/em>, pistachio, nurseries, inoculum source, control.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times;\">Full paper in Arabic: <a href=\"http:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/wp-content\/uploads\/93p30.pdf\">pdf<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abeer Ghanem(1)\u00a0 and Walid Naffaa(1)* (1) Damascus University, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Plant Protection, Damascus, (*Corresponding author: Dr. Walid Naffaa, E-mail: walid1851966@yahoo.com) Received: 16\/ 09\/ 2021\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Accepted: 7\/12\/ 2021 Abstract This study was carried out in Kom Al-Hasa nursery &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/?p=4850\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4850","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sjar"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4850","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4850"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4850\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5053,"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4850\/revisions\/5053"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4850"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4850"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agri-research-journal.net\/SjarEn\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4850"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
