First report of Fusarium culmorum and Microdochium bolleyi causing root rot on triticale in Kazakhstan
Plant Disease 105 (7 - 2659)
Abstract: During 2019, triticale plants (×Triticosecale Wittmack) grown in Kazakhstan were observed with symptoms of stunting, rot, or discolored root. The overall disease incidence was ~8 to 10% in 7 fields. The fungi Fusarium culmorum and Microdochium bolleyi were 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.
