Abstract
Isolation trials were carried out from wilt green bean plants showing typical
symptoms of damping-off. Samples of crew ford variety were collected from farms
located at Fayoum and Giza govemorates. associated with the tow fungivorus mite
Kleemannfa kosi and Proctolaefaps pygmaeus
Some of plants diseases may be controlled by using soil mites which are
normally considered fungivores mites.
The two fungi Sclerotium bafatfcola and Rhizocionia solani, were isolated from
naturally plants of green been associated with the tow fungivorus mite Kleemannia
kosr‘ and Proctolaelaps pygmaeus
Laboratory studies revealed the ability of two mite species collected from green
bean debris. root and soil. K. frost and P. pygmaeus. to feed and propagate on the
growth of the two different fungal species. Soil application of each mite species alone
or together beside fungus Trichoderma harzianu was successful as a biocontrol
technique against green bean root-rot and seedling-off disease.
