français. Brown mustard, canola and rye were used to control two soilborne diseases, Verticillium wilt (caused by Verticillium dahliae) and corky root (Pyrenochaeta lycopersici) in a series of pot trials. The average reduction of the number of V. dahliae microsclerotia by the green manures was 50 %. This reduction was strongly influenced by the green manure species, but also by the soil type. The microbial activity of the soil, enhanced by the green manures, led to a diminution of V. dahliae microsclerotia. For the control of corky root, the efficacy of a brown mustard with a high glucosinolate content was similar to steam sterilizing the soil. In contrast, rye had no effect against this disease.
