Natural infection of an herbaceous host byArmillaria: a case study onHemerocallis

Abstract: Symptoms of Armillaria root rot were observed on the herbaceous ornamental, Hemerocallis sp. (daylily), in a residential area in Walhalla, South Carolina, which was surrounded by dense, hardwood forest that also contained diseased hosts. Our objectives were to describe a natural occurrence of Armillaria root rot on daylily, a newly discovered host for the pathogen, and to characterize the Armillaria species involved. To characterize the Armillaria species collected from daylily, we used all available methods, … Show more

“…It is a global problem: in Canada, over 200 million hectares of forests are affected by Armillaria root disease (Canadian Forest Service, 2014;Chapman & Schellenberg, 2015;Cruickshank, 2011); Armillaria infections are also reported from forests across Europe and North and South America (Brazee, Marra, & Wick, 2012;Ferguson, Dreisbach, Parks, Filip, & Schmitt, 2003;Heinzelmann, Rigling, & Prospero, 2012;Labbé et al, 2015) as well as commercial orchards and vineyards (Baumgartner, 2004;Elías-Román et al, 2013;Pellegrini, Prodorutti, & Pertot, 2014;Schnabel, Rollins, & Henderson, 2011), and Armillaria root disease is problematic in Africa, Asia, and Australasia (Coetzee, Wingfield, Zhao, Van Coller, & Wingfield, 2015;Hood, Oliva, Kimberley, Arhipova, & Bakys, 2015;Wingfield, Maphosa, Coetzee, Mwenje, & Wingfield, 2009). Ornamental plants, including herbaceous species, are also affected (Blaedow, Baumgartner, Cox, & Schnabel, 2010;Coetzee et al, 2001;Travadon et al, 2012) and in the UK the majority of enquires received by the RHS Advisory Service over the past 19 years regarding plant diseases in UK gardens have been concerning Armillaria (RHS, 2015).…”

“…As Armillaria root rot is generally regarded as a disease of woody species, Armillaria infection of herbaceous hosts has received little attention. Known herbaceous hosts are typically perennials or species that have succulent roots or tubers and have only been reported occasionally in the literature (Blaedow et al, 2010;Grasso, Pane, & Cacciola, 2000;Guillaumin et al, 1993;Raabe, 1962;Robinson-Bax & Fox, 2002;Thormann, Myrholm, & Mallett, 2001). In this work, we attempt to alleviate some of the difficulties associated with the existing inoculation assays by (1) assessing the suitability of various herbaceous species for use as host plants in Armillaria inoculation assays, and (2) determining whether agar can be used as a substitute for woody inocula to expedite inocula preparation time.…”

“…The lack of resistance amongst hybrid cultivars - with the one study showing only a minority of the cultivars tested exhibiting any resistance to even a single P. hemerocallidis isolate - demonstrated the susceptibility of cultivated varieties that have been bred outside of their native range in the absence of any pressure from this specific pathogen [11]. Other emerging threats to cultivated daylily include the first reports of infection by the Armillaria genus [12], [13]. Both in the West and in China, anthracnose diseases caused by various Colletotrichum species have been identified and a new species of Colletotrichum, C. hemerocallidis , was recently described from infected leaf and scape material in China [14].…”
