Macadamia (Macadamia integrifolia) is endemic to eastern Australia and produces an edible nut that is widely cultivated in commercial orchards globally. A survey of fungi associated with the grey and green mold symptoms of macadamia flowers found mostly species of Botrytis (Sclerotiniaceae, Leotiomycetes) and Cladosporium (Cladosporiaceae, Dothideomycetes). These isolates included B. cinerea, C. cladosporioides, and unidentified isolates. Amongst the unidentified isolates, one novel species of Botrytis and three novel species of Cladosporium were delimited and characterized by molecular phylogenetic analyses. The new species are Botrytis macadamiae, Cladosporium devikae, C. macadamiae, and C. proteacearum.

“…In New Zealand, a cosmetic disorder of persimmon fruit consisting of dark brown, 486 corky spots on the skin and known as scarring was found to be directly related with field 487 infections by B. cinerea (Rheinländer et al 2013 Cladosporium spp. In South 519 Korea, C. cladosporiodes has also been found to be pathogenic and cause postharvest decay 520 (sooty mold) on persimmons (Kwon and Park 2003b). However, their pathogenicity is generally low and typically 517 affect senescent or overripe fruits producing small superficial, black or dark-green lesions, 518 which in some cases might be confused with black spots caused by A. alternata.…”

Incidence and Etiology of Postharvest Fungal Diseases of Persimmon (Diospyros kakiThunb. cv. Rojo Brillante) in Spain

11'Rojo Brillante' is currently the most important persimmon cultivar in Spain. The incidence 12 and etiology of postharvest diseases affecting this cultivar were determined under local 13 conditions. Latent and wound pathogens were assessed for two consecutive seasons on 14 commercially grown persimmons from two orchards. Healthy persimmons were either 15 surface-disinfested or artificially wounded on the rind and placed in humid chambers at 20 16 or 25ºC for up to 9 weeks. Additionally, decay was assessed on commercially handled 17 persimmons stored at 1ºC for up to 20 weeks. In all cases, the most frequent disease was 18 alternaria black spot (ABS) caused by Alternaria alternata and an ABS severity index 19 specific for 'Rojo Brillante' persimmons was established. Other minor pathogens causing 20 latent infections, mostly stem-end rots, included Botrytis cinerea, Lasiodiplodia 21 theobromae, Neofusicoccum spp., Pestalotiopsis clavispora, and Colletotrichum 22 Palou et al. Plant Dis. harm to fruit quality. This deastringency procedure, based on the application of carbon 41 dioxide (CO 2 ) concentrations as high as 95-98% at 20ºC for 24 h (Arnal and del Río 2003) 42allows Spanish persimmon to be commercialized with a crisp texture that has been accepted 43 by major export markets (EU countries such as Germany,

Blossom blight in strawberry was first observed in a green house in Nonsan, Damyang, and Geochang areas of Korea, between early January to April of 2012. Disease symptoms started as a grey fungus formed on the stigma, which led to the blossom blight and eventually to black rot and necrosis of the entire flower. We isolated the fungi purely from the infected pistils and maintained them on potato dextrose agar (PDA) slants. To test Koch's postulates, we inoculated the fungi and found that all of the isolates caused disease symptoms in the flower of strawberry cultivars (Seolhyang, Maehyang, and Kumhyang). The isolates on PDA had a velvet-like appearance, and their color ranged between olivaceous-brown and smoky-grey to olive and almost black. The intercalary conidia of the isolates were elliptical to limoniform, with sizes ranging from 5.0~10.5 × 2.5~3.0 µm to 4.0~7.5 × 2.0~3.0 µm, respectively. The secondary ramoconidia of these isolates were 0- or 1-septate, with sizes ranging betweem 10.0~15.0 × 2.5~3.7 µm and 8.7~11.2 × 2.5~3.2 µm, respectively. A combined sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer regions, partial actin (ACT), and translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF) genes revealed that the strawberry isolates belonged to two groups of authentic strains, Cladosporium cladosporioides and C. tenuissimum. Based on these results, we identified the pathogens causing blossom blight in strawberries in Korea as being C. cladosporioides and C. tenuissimum.
