Popis: The effect of Phoma terrestris on yield of the onion (Allium cepa) cultivars Kodiak (tolerant) and Paragon (susceptible), using onions grown outdoors in flats, was investigated. Similar experiments in the greenhouse included a third factor, drought stress. When onions were grown in organic field soil, the addition of P. terrestris increased average levels of pink root at harvest from 40% (control) to 52% (amended) in the greenhouse. However, yield did not decrease (.)
