Abstract

Stem rot symptoms of Eupatorium lindleyanum occurred sporadically in the herb exhibition field at Hamyang-gun Gyeongsangnam-do Agricultural Research and Extension Services in Korea. The typical symptom included water-soaking on the main stem, rotting, wilting, and blighting, which eventually leads to death of the plant. The sclerotia, white to brown, globoid with size of 1-3 mm, were formed over lesions and surface soil line. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth and sclerotia formation was $30^{\circ}C$ on PDA. The typical clamp connections were observed in the hyphae of the fungus grown on PDA. Mycological characteristics and pathogenicity to host plants indicated that the infected fungus was Sclerotium rolfsii Saccardo. This is the first report of stem rot on Eupatorium lindleyanum caused by S. rolfsii in Korea.

경상남도농업기술원 함양군 약용자원 시험포장에서 Sclerotium rolfsii에 의한 골등골나물 흰비단병 증상이 발생되었다. 병징은 줄기가 수침상으로 물러지고 썩으면서 서서히 시들어 말라 죽었다. 병반부와 토양 표면에 흰색의 곰팡이가 발생하며 갈색의 작은 둥근 균핵을 형성하였다. 감자한천배지에서 균총은 흰색이고 잘 자라며 갈색의 작은 둥근 균핵을 많이 형성하였다. 균핵의 크기는 1-3 mm이며 균사의 폭은 4-9 ${\mu}m$였다. 균사생육과 균핵 형성 적온은 $30^{\circ}C$이었다. 균사특유의 clamp connection이 관찰되었다. 골등골나물에서 발생한 병징, 병원균의 균학적 특징과 병원성을 검정한 결과, 이 병을 S. rolfsii Saccardo에 의한 골등골나물 흰비단병으로 명명하고자 제안한다.
