In Thailand, since 2013, sudden decline of bullet wood (Mimusops elengi) has been noted. The causal agent of this disease was identified based on both morphological and molecular properties as Ceratocystis manginecans. A portion of its ITS, β-tubulin and TEF1-α genes were amplified by PCR with the universal primer pairs PN3/PN16, βt1a/βt1b and EF1-728F/EF1-986R, respectively. Sequencing of the PCR product confirmed this pathogen was C. manginecans. This is the first report on the new sudden decline disease of bullet wood in Thailand associated with C. manginecans.
