First report of Fusarium poae on tomato in Argentina
Plant Pathology 58 (2), 401-401
Abstract: During 2003, tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants grown in Argentina were observed with symptoms of blighted flowers. Pedicels of flowers turned chlorotic and later became necrotic. Flowers shrivelled and generally abscised. The fungus Fusarium poae was isolated from the diseased plants. The identification was based on morphological characteristics and PCR analysis.
