Occurrence of powdery mildew was found on Japanese plum (Prunus salicina) growing in private gardens in Yanggu, Hongcheon, Hoengseong, and Gapyeong of central Korea, in 2011. Despite of extensive survey, however, there was no powdery mildew infection in commercial orchards of Japanese plum in Korea. The initial symptoms included white, evanescent mycelia and irregular patches on leaves and young stems. Infected leaves later showed partial distortion and diffuse red-purple discoloration. Based on morphological characteristics of holomorph and phylogenetic analysis, the causal fungus was identified as Podosphaera tridactyla. This is the first report of powdery mildew on Japanese plum in Korea.

The leaves and young shoots of several broad leaf trees infected with powdery mildew fungi were collected and observed for the purpose of seeking for the host plants and identifying its pathogenic fungi in the arboretum of Forest Research Institute, Seoul from October to November 1982. Of these, Prunus serrulata var. spontanea, Prunus padus, Celastrus flagellaris, and Fraxinus ${\times}$ chiisanensis were found out to be new host plants of powdery mildew fungi in korea. Morphological characteristics of imperfect state and perfect state of powdery mildew fungi on 4 new host plants were examined. These pathogenic fungi were identified as Podosphaera tridactyla, Uncinula sengokui, and Uncinula fraxini.
