摘要
Sugar beet is widely grown throughout the world and represents the second largest crop used to produce sugar. Root rot in sugar beet, caused by Fusarium, significantly reduces yield, juice purity, and sugar concentration. Here, 307 Fusarium isolates were collected from sugar beet roots exhibiting typical root rot symptoms in eight provinces or autonomous regions of China from 2009 to 2012. Based on morphological characteristics and sequence data of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) and the translation elongation factor 1 alpha (EF-1 alpha), Fusarium oxysporum (38.4%) was identified as the most prevalent species, followed by F. solani (20.9%), and F. equiseti (18.9%). These three species were widely distributed in all eight of the provinces and autonomous regions. F. tricinctum (5.9%), F. brachygibbosum (4.6%), F. redolens (3.3%), F. proliferatum (3.3%), F. graminearum (2.3%), F. verticillioides (1.6%), F. nygamai (0.7%), and F. culmorum (0.3%) were less frequently obtained. Of the 307 Fusarium isolates, 117 representing different species and geographic locations were demonstrated to cause tip rot and vascular discoloration in sugar beet roots, with disease incidence ranging from 84.2 to 100.0% and disease index ranging from 41.94 to 75.83. This is the first detailed report of Fusarium species, in particular F. tricinctum, F. brachygibbosum, F. redolens, F. proliferatum, F. nygamai, and F. culmorum, causing sugar beet root rot in China.
