Abstract
Dry rot of tubers is one of the dozens of soil-borne diseases that cause severe yield losses of economic importance. The disease is caused by fungi of the Fusarium genus, which commonly live in the soil, and feed on organic matter as saprotrophs. Their widespread occurrence means they also inhabit other economically important crops: wheat, rye, oats, barley, triticale, and maize. Fusarium fungi are currently among the world’s most pathogenic and phytotoxic microorganisms. They cause numerous potato crop losses, and the disease’s course includes field and storage.
