In Europe, two fastidious phloem-limited pathogens, ’ Candidatus Phytoplasma solani’ (16SrXII-A) and Arsenophonus phytopathogenicus’, are associated with rubbery taproot disease (RTD) syndrome basses richesses (SBR) of sugar beet, respectively. Both diseases can significantly reduce yield, especially when accompanied by root rot fungi. This study investigates the presence, geographic distribution genetic traits pathogens accompanying fungus, Macrophomina phaseolina , found on beet across...
Family Botryosphaeriaceae and the genus Diaporthe (family Diaporthaceae) represent diverse groups of plant pathogens, which include causal agents leaf spot, shoot blight, branch stem cankers, dieback, pre- postharvest apple fruit decay. Apple with symptoms light to dark brown decay were collected during after harvest from 2016 2018. Thirty selected isolates, on pathogenicity was confirmed, identified characterized based multilocus phylogeny morphology. Five species family two (fam....
‘ Candidatus Phytoplasma solani’ (stolbur phytoplasma) is associated with rubbery taproot disease (RTD) of sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris L.), while Macrophomina phaseolina considered the most important root rot pathogen this plant in Serbia. The high prevalence M . reported on Serbia, unmatched elsewhere world, coupled notorious tendency RTD-affected to rot, has prompted research into relationship between two diseases. This study investigates correlation occurrence RTD and presence fungal...

Blue mold, caused by Penicillium spp., is one of the most economically important postharvest diseases pome fruits, globally. Pome in particular apple, widely grown fruit Serbia, and distribution spp. responsible for decay unknown. A two-year survey was conducted 2014 2015, where four fruits (apple, pear, quince, medlar) with blue mold symptoms were collected from 20 storage locations throughout Serbia. Detailed morphological characterization, analysis virulence three apple cultivars,...
Botryosphaeria dothidea (Moug.:Fr.) Ces. & De Not. is predominantly recognized as a pathogen of various woody plants, inducing symptoms stem canker, dieback, and fruit rot worldwide. However, sporadic reports suggest its impact on field crops, including B. associated with canker in soybean tobacco (Bian et al. 2015; Chen 2021), well quercuum sugar beet (Alfieri 1984). In September 2023, during survey root pathogens (Beta vulgaris L.) Rimski Šančevi, Serbia (N 45°19´57″; E 19°49'58″), 3%...
ISHS V International Symposium on Postharvest Pathology: From Consumer to Laboratory-Sustainable Approaches Managing Pathogens Susceptibility of quince fruit postharvest fungal pathogens
<p><em>Paeonia peregrina</em> Mill. and <em>Paeonia tenuifolia</em> L. are endangered species of herbaceous plants with high ornamental medicinal values. There a few natural habitats in Serbia where these spontaneously grow: Krivi Vir, Skrobnica, Golina, Pirot, Deliblato Sands, Sokobanja, the municipality Knjaževac. In July 2021, symptom leaf spots was observed on <em>P. peregrina</em>, while...
Monilinia spp. are economically important pathogens of pome and stone fruits. Four species present in Serbia - fructigena, M. laxa, fructicola Monilia polystroma. As detection identification complex, the aim this research was to evaluate species-specific primers PCR order standardize fast reliable molecular methods for differentiation between four species. Isolates polystroma from apple fruit referent isolates Italy Japan were used testing. Specific laxa obtained using ITS1Mlx/ITS4Mlx...
