Item Susceptibility of different leaf stages of Hevea to Corynespora cassiicola(Rubber Research Institute:Agalawatta, 2010) Fernando, T.H.P.S.; Jayasinghe, C.K.; Wijesundera, R.L.C.; Siriwardena, D.Item A comparative study of Colletotrichum species causing anthracnose in Hevea(Rubber Research Institute:Agalawatta, 2009) Jayasinghe, C.K.; Fernando, T.H.P.S.; Jayawardana, N.Item Efficient management of Hevea diseases for sustainable and high productivity level(Rubber Research Institute of Sri Lanka:Agalawatta, 2009) Fernando, T.H.P.S.; Wijeratne, C.Item Weakening effect of 2-furaldehyde on Rigidoporus lignosus the cause of white root disease of rubber(Rubber Research Institute of Sri Lanka:Agalawatte, 1996) Jayasuriya, K.E.; Deacon, J.W.; Fernando, T.H.P.S.Furfuraldehyde is recognized as a potential fumigant which has the ability to weaken rigidoporus lignosus in artificially or naturally infected rubber root inocula. Addition of sulphur to soil at 100 g per 75 Kg of soil, inactivated or prevented the formation of R. lignosus mycelial cords from artificially or naturally infected inocula. Drenching 2.4 per cent aqueous solution of furfuraldehyde in to soil (1 liter/75 Kg) where R. lignosus inocula were buried, caused weakening or inactivation of R. lignosus in artificially or naturally infected inocula. However, combination of two treatments had no ssynergistic effect on both types of R. lignosus inocula in soil.
