고추 탄저병의 발병 생태 특성

Abstract

고추 탄저병 발생 상황을 알아보기 위하여 경북 북부 지방의 예천, 안동, 의성, 청송, 영양, 봉화 등 6개 시군 고추 주산지에서 포장 조사한 결과, 본포에서 6월부터 발병이 시작되어 9월 중순에는 약 30%로 급증하였다. 고추 탄저병이 인접과실로 전염하는 데는 보통 2-3일이 소요되었으며, 5-7일 후에 만연되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 과실에 탄저병을 일으키는 병원균은 대부분 Colletotrichum gloeosporioides였다. 고추 탄저병 발생에 관여하는 요인은 무엇보다도 이병 잔재물과 연작에 의한 1차 전염원의 증가, 생육기의 강우일수와 그 지속기간 등 기상 요인들이 복합적으로 관여함을 알 수 있었다. 병 발생을 줄이기 위해서는 이병 잔재물의 월동전 처리와 타 작물과의 윤작, 비가림 재배, 예방 위주의 약제 살포가 필요하다고 본다. Occurrence of anthracnose on red pepper fruit was examined at 6 red pepper-growing regions including Yecheon, Andong, Euisong, Cheongsong, and Ponghwa in Kyungbuk province, Korea in 1999. The disease occurred firstly June 13 at Cheongsong, progressed gradually thereafteri and increased rapidly from late August. The average disease incidence with mid September was 30.4%. There was no significant difference in disease incidence among the regions examined. Correlation coefficient analysis of the disease incidence with weather factors revealed that it was significantly related to relative humidity, precipitation, rainy days, and duration of continuous rainy days. Most fungal isolates from the diseased fruit were Colletotichum gloeosporioides. In the in field experiment, unmature fruit was somewhat more susceptible to the disease than mature fruit. In the field experiment, the disease occurred severely in open fields, having the disease incidence of 12.1%; however, no disease was observed in the rain-proof fields. The anthracnose on red pepper fruit developed earlier and more severely in the successive cropping field with red pepper than the field having other crops. Removal of infected plant debris also delayed and reduced the disease occurrence, suggesting that plant debris infested with the anthracnose fungus serve as a primary inoculum source which may govern the severity of the disease in the field.
