Crown rot of asparagus caused by Fusarium moniliforme var. intermedium.
1994
Yoshikawa M. | Hashimoto N. | Yokoyama T.
An unreported crown rot was found on asparagus plants in Kyoto Prefecture, Japan, in mid-May of 1989. Farmers were obliged to abandon asparagus cultivation even two years after planting. Brown to reddish brown lesions extended from the upper surface of crowns,where many buds of shoots were present, toward internal crown tissues resulting in serious yield loss. The causal pathogen was identified as Fusarium moniliforme var. intermedium (teleomorph: Gibberella fujikuroi var. intermedia) on the basis of its morphological characteristics and the common name of the disease, crown rot, was proposed.
