Development of sudden death syndrome (SDS) of soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.), caused by Fusarium solani (Mart.) Sacc. f. sp. glycines (Fsg), was studied in relation to sand content, pH, and potassium and phosphorus nutrition under controlled environments. Incidence and severity of SDS increased by approximately two- and four-fold respectively, as the sand content in soil increased from 53 to 100%. Disease severity increased by an average of 21% at soil pH = 7.7 compared to pH = 5.5. Amending the soil with potassium chloride resulted into an average decrease of 36% in SDS severity compared to the control; conversely, disease severity was increased by an average of 21% with calcium phosphate, 32% with potassium phosphate, 43% with potassium sulfate and sodium phosphate, and 45% with potassium nitrate compared to the controls. In vitro conidial germination of Fsg was not significantly affected by potassium and phosphorus amendments. However, mycelial linear growth was enhanced by an average of 15, 22, and 25% with potassium nitrate, potassium phosphate, and sodium phosphate, respectively, but not with potassium chloride, potassium sulfate, or calcium phosphate. Colony area increased with increasing pH and was approximately 2.5-fold greater at pH = 8.2 than at pH = 5.7. Collectively, these results indicate that the physical and chemical environments of soil exert a significant effect on SDS in soybean and on Fsg.
