Twenty-six seed samples of six susceptible faba bean cultivars. A total number of 20 fungal species belonging to 13 genera were observed and identified. When comparing the recommended testing methods.The pathogenicity test, revealed that the most effective isolate on pre-, post-emergence damping-off and stunted seedlings were Fusarium verticillioides, Rhizoctonia solani, Cephalosporium sp., and Verticillium dahliae. It was shown that both compost extracts had an inhibitory effect on linear growth and sporulation of tested fungi in vitro and the inhibition was positively correlated to the...
