First report of Phytophthora plurivora causing collar rot on common alder in Spain
Plant Disease 98 (3), 425-425
Abstract: During a survey in 2012, alder trees (Alnus glutinosa) growing in Spain were observed with symptoms of sparse small yellowish foliage and the presence of rusty exudates on the bark at the collar and lower stem. The oomycete Phytophthora plurivora was isolated from the diseased plants. The identification was based on morphological characteristics and DNA sequence analysis. Pathogenicity of the isolates was demonstrated by inoculation and re-isolation.
