Abstract
Phythium intermedium is reported for the first time as a root pathogen of hydroponically grown cucumbers (Cucumis sativus L.). Catenulate and deciduous sporangia were capable of direct (formation of germ tubes) and indirect (formation of zoospores) germination.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
