Abstract Laboratory experiments were carried out at the Environmental Biotechnology Department and the experimental station farm of (GEBRI), Sadat City, University of Sadat City, Egypt. Compost experiments and open field trials were carried out at Queisna for agriculture development during the period 2010-2015. Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is one of the most important vegetable food legumes in Egypt. where their seeds and pods are rich in calcium, some vitamins, proteins, mineral salts, some amino acids especially lysine and others. Green bean plants could be attacked during growth season, storage, marketing or exporting with many of fungus such as Rhizoctonia solani and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum causing serious losses and minimize plant stand. (Bioactive compost) compost enriched with Trichoderma viride, isothiocyanates extracted from mustard (Sinapis alba) seeds and compost amended with chitin and effective microorganisms were used in this study for suppression of white rot disease caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and damping-off caused by Rhizoctonia solani on green been (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) c.v. Paulista. Both biological and natural compound were found to be highly effective to suppress the radial growth of both causal pathogens in vitro tests and significantly reduced the disease incidence in open field experiments. |
