Abstract
An isolate of Macrophomina phaseolina discovered in Lake Houston, TX, caused a disease of the submersed plant Hydrilla verticillata. In repeated greenhouse and field tests, this fungus greatly reduced the biomass of hydrilla within 3-4 wk after inoculation. Pathogenicity studies indicated that this fungus may be useful as a biocontrol agent
