“…F. oxysporum species have been known as economically important plant-pathogenic fungi that cause fusarium wilt and root rot in many plants. F. oxysporum has been identified as the main cause of fusarium wilt disease in rice (Mironenko, 1960), tomato (Borisade et al, 2017), banana (Mostert et al, 2017), oil palm (Flood, 2006), sweet potato (Loebenstein and Thottappilly, 2009), eggplant (Miller et al, 2008), watermelon (Egel and Martyn, 2007), date palm (Elliot, 2009), and cabbage (Song et al, 1996). In addition, F. oxysporum has caused root rot disease in soybean (Arias et al, 2013;Ellis et al, 2014), sweet potato (Clark and Moyer, 1988), wheat (Labuschagne et al, 2010), sugar beet (Hanson et al, 2018), pepper (Cerkauskas, 2017), and Amaranthus hybridus (Chen and Swart, 2000).…”
