  • Title: [Effects of fungicide on temporal and spatial niches of Rhizoctonia solani].
    Author: Wang Z, Tan G.
    Journal: Ying Yong Sheng Tai Xue Bao; 2005 Aug; 16(8):1493-6. PubMed ID: 16262065.
    Abstract:
    This paper studied the variation of the temporal and spatial niches of rice sheath blight-causing Rhizoctonia solani under spraying fungicide. The results showed that between fungicide treatments and control, the spatial niche breadth of Rhizoctonia solani was different, while its temporal niche breadth was similar. The spatial niche breadth of Rhizoctonia solani was 0.5240 when spraying fungicide at booting and full heading stages, 0.5742 at booting and milkfilling stages, and 0.8577 at tillering stage, while the control was 0.8563. Spraying fungicide had little effect on temporal niche breath. The spatial niche breath, percentage of diseased leaves and sheathes, index of disease, and control effect all suggested that spraying fungicide two times in rice growth period was better than spraying it one time. Spraying fungicide at booting and full heading stages and at booting stage and milkfilling stages had the best effects. Fungicide could not only narrow the spatial niche breadth, limit the spread of Rhizoctonia solani on top leaves which were important for the yield, but also narrow the temporal niche breadth, limit the spread of Rhizoctonia solani during the yield formation period of rice. But, spraying fungicide only changed the distribution of the fungus niches and narrowed the niches during rice yield formation period, with no changes in the whole niches of Rhizoctonia solani.
