Abstract

Leptosphaeria biglobosa ‘canadensis’ is reported for the first time in Australia. All 88Leptosphaeria isolates cultured fromBrassicajuncea stubble from northern NSW wereL. biglobosa ‘canadensis’ whilst all 55 isolates cultured from Victorian stubble of the sameB. juncea lines wereL. maculans. BothL. biglobosa ‘canadensis’ andL. maculans formed similar sized lesions onB. juncea cotyledons after 14 days. However,L. biglobosa ‘canadensis’ isolates colonised stems less effectively thanL. maculans and consequently caused less crown cankering.
