Cabbage clubroot is a major constraint for the production of cruciferous species. This research aim at exploring the effect of Trichoderma koningiopsis (as the wettable powder formulated product Tricotec®) and dolomite on the disease and crop growth of cabbage. This study was carried out in a field with a prolonged history of clubroot incidence. The trial was set up in a randomized complete block design with five repetitions. The following treatments were applied: 0) absolute control; 1 and 2) liming with dolomite at 1.0 and 2.1 t ha-1; 3) Tricotec® at 200 g ha-1; 4) combination of treatments 1 and 3; 5) combination of treatments 2 and 3. The treatment with just Tricotec® applications gave the lowest disease incidence and severity and the heaviest plant dry weight. Joint applications of Tricotec® and dolomite at 2.1 t ha-1 reduced the crop growth variables and had the highest disease intensity. The Trichoderma concentration in the soil was increased by a factor of 10 in the plots that received just Tricotec®, but not in the limed plots. These results showed that T. koningiopsis, in a Tricotec® formulation, is a promising candidate for the control of cabbage clubroot and that its biological activity is affected by dolomite when applied jointly at 2.1 t ha-1.
La enfermedad hernia de las crucíferas, es un factor limitante en la producción de estas hortalizas. El objetivo de este ensayo fue evaluar el efecto de Trichoderma koningiopsis (producto formulado Tricotec® en formulación de polvo mojable) y de cal dolomítica, sobre la enfermedad y del crecimiento de repollo. El estudio se estableció en un lote con registro de la enfermedad. Se empleó un diseño de bloques completamente aleatorizados con cinco replicas. Se aplicaron los siguientes tratamientos: 0) testigo absoluto, 1 y 2) cal dolomítica 1,0 y 2,1 t ha-1, 3) Tricotec®en dosis de 200 g ha-1, 4) combinación de los tratamientos 1 y 3; 5) combinación de los tratamientos 2 y 3. Los tratamientos donde únicamente se aplicó Tricotec® presentaron los menores valores de incidencia y severidad y el mayor peso fresco de la planta. Aplicaciones conjuntas de Tricotec® y cal dolomita en dosis de 2.1 t ha-1 redujeron las variables de crecimiento del cultivo además de presentar la mayor intensidad de la enfermedad. Las concentraciones de Trichoderma en suelo aumentaron en un factor de 10 para los tratamientos donde se aplicó unicamente Tricotec® pero no en los tratamientos donde se encaló. Estos resultados muestran que T. koningiopsis como producto formulado Tricotec® es un biocontrolador promisorio para el control de la hernia de las crucíferas y que su actividad biológicaes afectada por la cal dolomita cuando se aplica en dosis de 2.1 t ha-1.
