“…Dothoriella iberica has been associated with FTD of walnut, apricot, hazelnut, apple and grapevine, in Spain, Germany and Italy (Phillips et al, 2005;Carlucci et al, 2015b;Gierl and Fischer 2017;López-Moral et al, 2020a). Neoscytalidium dimidiatum has recently been related to canker and dieback of walnut, grapevine, cherry, almond and apricot in Turkey (Derviş et al, 2019;Oksal et al, 2019;Oksal et al, 2020;Ören et al, 2020;Ören et al, 2022). This pathogen also caused shoot blight, canker and gummosis on citrus in Italy (Polizzi et al, 2009).…”

Production from crops of pome, stone fruit, nut, berry fruit, citrus, grapevine, and olive is increasingly threatened by fungal trunk diseases (FTD). These diseases and the consequent production losses are major problems. Many fungi (including Botryosphaeriaceae, Calosphaeriaceae, Diaporthaceae, Diatrypaceae, Nectriaceae, Phaeomoniellaceae, Pleosporaceae, Togniniaceae, Valsaceae) infect host wood, mainly through wounds and subsequent colonization of woody tissues, causing symptoms such as cankers, gummosis, wood rotting, blight and dieback. Propagative plant material, seedlings and fruit play a significant role in pathogen spread. Several abiotic factors (e.g. shifts in cultural practices and climate change) are involved in the disease development. This paper reviews recent literature on FTD of fruit crops, particularly focusing on the European status of pathogen occurrence. Case studies are described related to diseases of apple, citrus, grapevine, berry, nut and stone fruit, and olive trees. Aspects related to epidemiology and the increase in disease incidence along with the future perspectives on the FTD research are also discussed.

“…The pathogen is unlikely to enter further into the EU by natural means (e.g. rain, wind‐driven rain, insects) because of the long distance between the infested third countries and the EU MS. More specifically, the only infested third country neighbouring the EU territory is Türkiye, where the pathogen has been reported from the following areas: Şanlıurfa, Sur district of Diyarbakir, Akçakale, Gaziantep, Malatya and Manisa Provinces (Derviş et al., 2019a ; Türkölmez et al., 2019b , c ; Alkan et al., 2022 ; Ören et al., 2022a , b ). Of the above‐mentioned Provinces, the first five are located in the south‐eastern Anatolia Region and the sixth one in the Western Region.…”

“…In the non‐EU areas of its current distribution, N. dimidiatum affects a wide range of woody perennial crops and ornamental plants causing a variety of symptoms, which include leaf spot, leaf scorch, leaf/needle blight, shoot blight, branch dieback, canker, blossom decline, pre‐harvest and post‐harvest fruit rot, stem‐end rot, gummosis, root rot, decline and even the death of the hosts (Pavlic et al., 2008 ; Polizzi et al., 2011 ; Sakalidis et al., 2011 ; Mohd et al., 2013 ; Rolshausen et al., 2013 ; Machado et al., 2014 ; Yi et al., 2015 ; Mayorquin et al., 2016 ; Lin et al., 2017 ; Nouri et al., 2018 ; de Mello et al., 2019 ; Oksal et al., 2019 ; Sabernasab et al., 2019 ; Türkölmez et al., 2019a , 2019b ; Hong et al., 2020 ; Nourian et al., 2021 ; Özer et al., 2022 ; Güney et al., 2022a , 2022b ; Ören et al., 2022a , 2022b ).…”

The EFSA Plant Health Panel performed a pest categorisation of Neoscytalidium dimidiatum, a clearly defined plant pathogenic fungus of the family Botryosphaeriaceae. The pathogen affects a wide range of woody perennial crops and ornamental plants causing symptoms such as leaf spot, shoot blight, branch dieback, canker, pre-and post-harvest fruit rot, gummosis and root rot. The pathogen is present in Africa, Asia, North and South America, and Oceania. It has also been reported from Greece, Cyprus and Italy, with a restricted distribution. Nevertheless, there is a key uncertainty on the geographical distribution of N. dimidiatum worldwide and in the EU, because in the past, when molecular tools were not available, the two synanamorphs of the pathogen (Fusicoccum-like and Scytalidium-like) might have been misidentified based only on morphology and pathogenicity tests. N. dimidiatum is not included in Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2072. Because of the wide host range of the pathogen, this pest categorisation focuses on those hosts for which there is robust evidence that the pathogen was formally identified by a combination of morphology, pathogenicity and multilocus sequence analysis. Plants for planting, fresh fruits and bark and wood of host plants as well as soil and other plant growing media are the main pathways for the further entry of the pathogen into the EU. Host availability and climate suitability factors occurring in parts of the EU are favourable for the further establishment of the pathogen. In the areas of its present distribution, including Italy, the pathogen has a direct impact on cultivated hosts. Phytosanitary measures are available to prevent the further introduction and spread of the pathogen into the EU. N. dimidiatum satisfies the criteria that are within the remit of EFSA to assess for this species to be regarded as potential Union quarantine pest.

“…Members in the genus Neoscytalidium have been reported as pathogenic agents on various crops and trees, such as almond (Prunus dulcis), Avicennia marina Forssk., baobab (Adansonia gibbosa), bardi bush (Acacia synchronica), blue grevillea (Grevillia agrifolia), rattlepod (Crotalaria medicaginea), olive (Olea europaea L.), etc. (Table 1), causing economic yield losses (Pavlic et al, 2008;Ray et al, 2010;Sakalidis et al, 2011;Rahmani, 2018;Chakusary et al, 2019;Sabernasab et al, 2019;Derviş et al, 2019;Mello et al, 2019;Türkölmez et al, 2019;Brito et al, 2020;Alananbeh et al, 2020;Oksal and Ozer, 2021;Kuruppu et al, 2021;Oren et al, 2022;Yeganeh and Mohammadi, 2022;. Though, they have also been reported as opportunistic human pathogens causing chronic superficial infections of skin, nails, and nose, cutaneous, invasive cutaneous, deep cutaneous infection, onychomycosis, dermatomycosis, fingernail onychomycosis, superficial black onychomycosis, rhinosinusitis, brain abscess, and pulmonary disease (Bakhshizadeh et al, 2014;Dionne et al, 2015;Yang et al, 2019;Jo et al, 2020;González Cortés et al, 2021;Raiesi et al, 2022).…”

In recent years, Nattrassia mangiferae has received tremendous attention as a destructive plant pathogen that may potentially infect humans and animals. The pathogen was isolated from 61 species belonging to 47 genera and 30 family plants but was most frequently isolated from Cactaceae, Rosaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Anacardiaceae, and Rutaceae hosts. To systematically and comprehensively describe the progress, trends, and hotspots of N. mangiferae research, the 376 related publications from 1966 to 2022 were collected from the Scopus database. The bibliometric characteristics including publication output, countries/region of focus, author's productivity, most prolific authors, authorship pattern, citation frequency, institutes, most prolific journals, and research focus were evaluated by using Excel 2013 and VOSviewer. Out of 376 original articles, there are 139 plant and 237 human studies. The leading countries based on the number of publications were the United States, the United Kingdom, and Brazil. A sharp increase in the number of studies related to the pathogenicity of N. mangiferae during 2018 to 2021 was observed, coinciding with an increase in the number of short reports and outbreak reports worldwide. The journal and subject categories with the most significant publications are Plant Disease and Medical Mycology, respectively. The most common document types were article, note, review, and letter. N. mangiferae is a thermophilic fungus, and warming temperatures may weaken trees and affect their susceptibility to this pathogen. The increase in reports of the pathogenicity of this pathogen on various plants and humans from 70 different countries in recent years shows the importance of this pathogen as a sever threat to the world. Our bibliometric analysis reveals the current research hotspots and topic trends on N. mangiferae, thus offering potential clues for further examination.
