چکیده
Severe root rot was observed in fields of cabbages (Brassica oleracea L.) in 2015 in China. Cardinal symptoms of this disease included root rot and wilting leaves. A fungus was isolated from diseased tissues consistently. Based on the morphological features and molecular analysis of the ITS-5.8S rDNA and D1/D2 domain of the 28S rRNA gene, it was identified as Plectosphaerella cucumerina. This is the first report of P. cucumerina causing cabbage root rot in China and the world.

Potato cyst nematodes (PCN) are serious pests in commercial potato production, causing yield losses valued at approximately $300 million in the European Community. The nematophagous fungus Plectosphaerella cucumerina has demonstrated its potential as a biological control agent against PCN populations by reducing field populations by up to 60% in trials. The use of biological control agents in t...

Brown stem rot (BSR) is one of the most important diseases of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) in the north-central soybean-production region (10), yet the causal agent of the disease is poorly known. The disease is characterized by a browning of the vascular system and pith, and characteristic chlorosis and necrosis of the foliage develops late in the season, usually in August (2). However, si...
