국내에서 분리한 토마토 시들음병균(Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici)의 체세포 화합성군

Vegetable Compatibility Grouping of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici Isolated from Korea

Forty-six isolates of Fusarium oxysporum collected from infected tomato plants and soils in greenhouses in Sedo, Chungnam and Angang, Kyeongbuk and 8 isolates of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici from Japan and USA were used to determine vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs). Vegetative comaptibility was assessed on the basis of heterokaryon formation among nitrate nonutilizing mutants. All Korean isolates of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici used in this study belonged to the same type of VCG (003) regardless of their geographic origin, cultivar and race, but they were incompatible with the foreign isolates of VCG 0030, 0031, 0032 and 0033. Based on the results, the Korean isolates of F. oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici were classified as a new VCG 003.
