Abstract: a cross-sectional study was conducted from March to May 2019 with the aim of determining the prevalence of gastrointestinal helminthes of sheep and goats in and around Bishoftu. A totally 206 faecal samples were collected from small ruminants (134 sheep and 72 goats). Out of the total examined small ruminant 69.4% were found harbor different genera of helminthes in which 89/134 (66.4%) of the sheep and 54/72(75%) of the goats were infested with GIT parasites. Although the difference was statistically insignificant (P > 0.05), the infection rate of gastrointestinal tract (GIT) parasites was higher in goats than sheep. The helminthes parasites identified in small ruminant of the study area were Strongyles, Strongyloides, Trichuris and Monezia. Overall strongyle type eggs dominated the spectrum of infections; where by 104(50.5%) small ruminants were positive for strangyles infection. In this study species, age and sex score are important risk factors associated with gastrointestinal parasites in the study area but found statistically insignificant (P > 0.05). The overall prevalence of gastrointestinal helminthes in the study area indicates GIT helminthosis are important health and productivity problems and risk of economic losses due to its high prevalence and occurrence of parasitism.

Abstract: The cultivation of small cardamom and maintenance of healthy plants have become difficult tasks due to the incidence and spread of Fusarium infections in recent years. Fusarium infection in small cardamom have been reported in the form of capsule infection in the field, seed rot and seedling wilt in nurseries, stem rot & stem lodging in plantations, rhizome rot, root tip rot and foliar yellowing. Field experiment was conducted at Santhanpara, Vandanmedu, Parathode and Kattappana to evaluate the individual and combined efficacy of Pseudomonas fluorescens (IDK-S-1, IDK-V-2, IDK-P-3, and IDK-k-4), Bacillus subtilis (IDK-S-1, IDK-V-2, IDK-P-3, and IDK-k-4), Trichoderma harzianum (IDK-S-1, IDK-V-2, IDK-P-3, and IDK-K-4) and AMF(IDK-S-1,IDK-V-2,IDK-P-3,and IDK-k-4) strains to promote the growth and yield parameters of small cardamom  and to manage Fusarium wilt disease  in field conditions. The dominant pathogen which causes Fusarium wilt of small cardamom was isolated and identified as Fusarium oxysporum Schlecht. Five native bacterial antagonists and fungus were isolated from forest and healthy small cardamom plantation soil in different geographical regions. Under in field conditions, the results revealed that the  foliar spray and drenching of combined application of PF (Pf-IDK-S-1)+BS(Bs-IDK-V-2) was found to effectively inhibit the mycelial growth of the pathogen (by 60%) when compared to application of individual strains of the bacterial antagonists. The above strains of P. fluorescens and B. subtilis (PF (Pf-IDK-S-1) +BS (Bs-IDK-V-2)) were found compatible. The soil combined application of PF (IDK-S-1) +TH (IDK-P-3) exhibited the highest disease reduction. Also, small cardamom plantation treated with PF (IDK-S-1) + BS (IDK-V-2) strains showed a significant stimulatory effect on plant height and increased the yield up to 27% in comparison to the non-bacterized control. The combined strains also increased small cardamom capsule fruit weight. It could be concluded that synergistic consortia of beneficial bacteria isolated from rhizosphere soil are perfectly able to promote plant growth and could be exploited for sustainable management of soil borne diseases especially, Fusarium rot of small cardamom.
