Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) family Malvaceae is an important crop used in food, cosmetics and pharmaceutics industries. Roselle is cultivated mainly in Upper Egypt (Qena and Aswan governorates) producing 94% of total production. Root rot disease of roselle is one of the most important diseases that attack both seedlings and adult plants causing serious losses in crop productivity and quality. The main objective of the present study is to identify and characterize pathogens associated with root rot and wilt symptoms of roselle in Qena, Upper Egypt and evaluate their pathogenicity under greenhouse and field condition. Fusarium oxysporum, Macrophomina phaseolina, Fusarium solani, Fusarium equiseti and Fusarium semitectum were isolated from the natural root rot diseases in roselle. All isolated fungi were morphologically characterized and varied in their pathogenic potentialities. They could attack roselle plants causing damping-off and root rot/wilt diseases in different pathogenicity tests. The highest pathogenicity was caused by F. oxysporum and M. phaseolina followed by F. solani. The least pathogenic fungi were F. equiseti followed by F. semitectum. It obviously noted that Baladi roselle cultivar was more susceptible to infection with all tested fungi than Sobhia 17 under greenhouse and field conditions. This is the first report of fungal pathogens causing root rot and vascular wilt in roselle in Upper Egypt.

Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium solani, F. oxysporum, and Macrophomina phaseolina were found to be associated with root rott and wilt symptoms of faba bean plants collected from different fieldes in New Valley governorate, Egypt. All the obtained isolates were able to attack faba bean plants (cv. Giza 40) causing damping-off and root rot/wilt diseases. R. solani isolates 2 and 5, F. solani isolate 8, F. oxysporum isolate 12 and M. phaseolina isolate 14 were the more virulent ones in the pathogenicity tests. Biocontrol agents (Trichoderma viride and Bacillus megaterium) and chemical inducers (salicylic acid [SA] and hydrogen peroxide) individually or in combination were examined for biological control of damping-off and root rot/wilt and growth promoting of faba bean plants in vitro and in vivo. Both antagonistic biocontrol agents and chemical inducers either individually or in combination inhibited growth of the tested pathogenic fungi. Biocontrol agents combined with chemical inducers recorded the highest inhibited growth especially in case SA + T. viride and SA + B. megaterium. Under green house and field conditions, all treatments significantly reduced damping-off and root rot/wilt severity and increased of survival plants. Also, these treatments increased fresh and weights of the survival plants in pots compared with control. The combination between biocontrol agents and chemical inducers were more effective than used of them individually and SA + T. viride was the best treatment in this respect. Also, under field conditions, all these treatments significantly increased growth parameters (plant height and number of branches per plant) and yield components (number of pods per plant and number of seeds per plant, weight of 100 seeds and total yield per feddan) and protein content in both seasons (2010~2011 and 2011~2012). Faba bean seeds soaked in SA + T. viride and SA + B. megaterium were recorded the highest growth parameters and yield components. Generally, the combination between biocontrol agents and chemical inducers recorded the best results for controlling damping-off and root rot/wilt diseases in greenhouse and field with addition improved plant growth and increased yield components in field.

Roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) is one of the most important medicinal crops in many parts of the world. In this study, the effects of microelements, antioxidants, and bioagents on Fusarium oxysporum, F. solani, and Macrophomina phaseolina, the causal pathogens of root rot and wilt diseases in roselle, were examined under field conditions. Preliminary studies were carried out in vitro in order to select the most effective members to be used in field control trials. Our results showed that microelements (copper and manganese), antioxidants (salicylic acid, ascorbic acid, and EDTA), a fungicide (Dithane M45) and biological control agents (Trichoderma harzianum and Bacillus subtilis) were significantly reduced the linear growth of the causal pathogens. Additionally, application of the previous microelements, antioxidants, a fungicide and biological control agents significantly reduced disease incidence of root rot and wilt diseases under field conditions. Copper, salicylic acid, and T. harzianum showed the best results in this respect. In conclusion, microelements, antioxidants, and biocontrol agents could be used as alternative strategies to fungicides for controlling root rot and wilt diseases in roselle.

A Pythium species was isolated from roots of lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) showing wilt symptoms and reduced growth in a greenhouse at Ichon, Kyonggi-do in 1997. The Pythium species was identified as Pythium spinosum Sawada based on various mycological characteristics. The isolate was strongly pathogenic when inoculated to root of lisianthus plants in pots. The diseased plants showed typical symptoms of root and crown rot, resulting in reduced growth of roots and shoots, and consequently wilting of the above ground part of plants.

Disease incidence of Codonopsis lanceolata was surveyed at the major cultivating fields in Chonbuk province in 1996 to 1997. The main diseases of Codonopsis lanceolata were ovserved as leaf spot caused by Septoria codonopsis, anthracnose by Glomerella cingulata, brown leaf spot by Cercospora sp., rust by Coleosporium koreanum, powdery mildew by Erysiphe sp., Fusarium wilt caused by Fusarium oxyporum, and white root rot by Sclerotium rolfsii. Anthracnose, leaf spot and brown leaf spot occurred severely on leaves from early July to late August. They were caused early fallen leaves. Fusarium wilt and white root rot occurred severely on stem and below the soil line in late August. They resulted in withering to death or chlorosis and fallen of leaves. Disease incidence of Codonopsis lanceolata was also substantially different in occurrence with a method of cultivation in late growth stage. Fusarium wilt and white root rot were more severe with a method of no support cultivation than those with a method of support cultivation with a stick. Fusarium wilt occurred 48.8% in a method of no support cultivation but 3.1% in a method of support cultivation with a stick. And white root rot occurred 18.9% in a method of no support cultivation but 0.3% in a method of no support cultivation with a stick. Thus, it proved that soil-borne diseases could be controlled support cultivation with a stick.

2000년 경기도 연천지역의 만삼(Codonopsis pilosula) 재배포장에서 시들음 증상을 나타내는 만삼의 뿌리로부터 Pythium sp.를 분리하였고, 다양한 균학적 특성을 조사한 결과 Pythium myriotylum으로 동정되었다. 병원성검정을 위하여 pot에 식재된 만삼의 뿌리에 분리 균을 접종한 결과 강한 병원성을 나타냈고, 포장에서 나타난 특징적인 증상과 유사한 뿌리썩음에 의한 시들음 증상을 나타냈다. 만삼에서 P. myriotylum에 의한 병은 아직 국내에 보고된 바 없어 P. myriotylum에 의한 만삼 뿌리썩음병을 최초로 보고한다.

Cultivation of a native wild vegetable, Ligularia fischeri, is hampered by Phytophthora sp. Infected plants showed wilt and eventual death due to rots on the root and basal portion. Eight isolates collected were all identified as P. drechsleri based on their mycological characteristics. The fungi showed relatively strong pathogenicity to L. Fischeri, mild to Aster scaber and Codonoposis lanceolata, and none to Circium setidens and Pimpinella brachycarpa. This is the first report of Phytophthora root rot on wild vegetables in Korea.

토마토‘Sunroad’품종을‘Anchor-T’, ‘Kagemushia’,‘Joint’및 Vulcan’등 4가지 다른 대목에 접목하여 뿌리썩음시들음병(Fusarium oxysporum Schl. f. sp. jycopersici Snyder et Hansen, race J$_3$)이 만연한 포장에 재배하여 이병율, 수량 및 과실의 품질을 조사하였다. 그리고 질소비료의 시용수준(10, 20 및 30kg.ha$^{-1}$)에 따른 생장, 과실의 성분 및 식물체의 무기성분함량의 변화도 아울러 조사하였다. 접목묘는 무접목에 비하여 제 1번 화방의 개화가 촉진되었다. 접목은 초장을 증가시켰고 질소 소비량이 증가할수록 초장과 줄기 직경은 더욱 증가하였다. 접목한 토마토는 이병 되지 않았으나 ‘Anchor-T’ 대목에 접한 것은 64.7%의 이병율을 나타내었다. 접목한 토마토는 기형과, 발육불량과 및 잿빛곰팡이병과의 발생비율이 무접목구에 비하여 현저히 감소하였다. 접목과 무접목 사이에 있어서 가욕성고형물, 당함량, ascorbic acid 및 organic acid의 함량차이는 없었다. 질소 사용량의 증가에 따른 변화도 없었으나 ascorbic acid는 질소함량이 증가할수록 감소하였다. 잎과 줄기의 무기성분함량은 대목의 종류 및 질소 사용량에 따른 차이를 보이지 않았다. 다만 질소 105당 30kg 시용구에서는 접목한 것이 잎의 N, Ca 및 Mg 함량이 현저히 높았다.
