Abstract

The Sclerotium blight was found on Phalaenopsis spp. at Dong-du-cheon city, and Hwa-seong city, Gyenggido, Korea in September 2009. The symptom included yellowing on lower leaves and wilt of a whole plant. Severely infected plants were blighted and died eventually. White mycelial mats appeared on the surface of basal stem and bulbs and the sclerotia were formed on stems, roots, and sphagnum moss. The sclerotia were spherical, 1-3 mm and white to brown. The optimum temperature for the growth and sclerotia formation was $25-30^{\circ}C$ on PDA. On the pathogenicity test, the first symptom appeared 5 days after inoculation and developed to severe stem rot and blight. On the basis of mycological characteristics and pathogenicity, the causal fungus was identified as Sclerotium rolfsii. This is the first report on the sclerotium blight on Phalaenopsis spp. caused by Sclerotium rolfsii in Korea.

2009년 9월 경기도 동두천시와 화성시 소재 농가에서 팔레놉시스 재배중 생육이 부진하고 하엽이 황화되며 심한 경우 뿌리와 기부가 마르고 식물체 전체가 말라죽는 증상이 발생하였다. 말라죽은 기부와 수태표면에 흰색 곰팡이 균사와 함께 둥근 형태의 적갈색 균핵이 관찰되었다. 균학적 특징으로 균사는 $25-30^{\circ}C$에서 가장 활발한 생장을 보였으며, 균핵은 갈색의 둥근형태로 직경은 1-3 mm 였다. 병원성 검정결과 병징이 접종 후 5일째 관찰되었으며 그 후 급속하게 진전되어 강한 병원력을 보였다. 팔레놉시스에서 발생한 병징과 병원균의 균학적 특징 및 병원성을 검정한 결과 이 증상은 Sclerotium rolfsii에 의한 흰비단병으로 동정되어 본 병을 팔레놉시스 흰비단병으로 명명하고자 한다.
