Fusarium virguliforme, a soybean sudden death syndrome fungus in Malaysian soil
Australasian Plant Disease Notes 9 (128)
Abstract: Numerous Fusarium species associated with soil and different plants have been reported from Malaysia. Until now there are no reports on F. virguliforme in Malaysia. Fusarium virguliforme is the etiological agent of soybean sudden death syndrome (SDS). Morphological studies combined with molecular analysis using sequences from the translation elongation factor 1α (TEF-1α) gene and nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions were conducted to identify F. virguliforme (2.1 %) isolates from soil in Malaysia.
