摘要
Lettuce big-vein disease, caused by Mirafiori lettuce big-vein virus and Lettuce big-vein associated virus, is suppressed when the pH of field soil becomes acidic. Therefore, we evaluated the effect of soil pH on the activities of Olpidium virulentus, the vector of the viruses. We found that acidic soil, pH less than 6.0, significantly reduced O. virulentus infection of the root and influenced the detection rate of zoospores released in the surrounding water. We concluded that acidic soil suppresses zoospore release from zoosporangia.
