Abstract

경남 고성군 자운영 재배포장에서 잎과 줄기가 수침상으로 무르고 썩으며, 시들어 말라 죽고 병든 부분에 흰색의 곰팡이와 균핵이 발생하였다. 감자한천배지 상에서 균총은 연한 회색이며 균핵의 모양은 구형이고 검은색으로 크기는 <TEX>$2{\sim}14{\times}2{\sim}7mm$</TEX>이었다. 균사 생육적온과 균핵 형성은 <TEX>$20^{\circ}C$</TEX>이었다. 자낭반은 구형 또는 원반 모양이며 크기는 3~8 mm이었다. 자낭은 원통형이고 크기는 <TEX>$145{\sim}210{\times}10{\sim}12{\mu}m$</TEX>이었다. 이상과 같이 자운영에 발생한 병징, 병원균의 균학적 특징 및 병원성 검정한 결과 Sclerotinia trifoliorum Eriksson에 의한 자운영 균핵병으로 동정하였다. Sclerotinia rot occurred sporadically on the stems and leaves of Astragalus sinicus in the farmers fields at Goseong-gun, Gyeongnam province in Korea. The infected plants showed the typical symptoms: watersoaked, wilt, rot, blight and eventual death. The colony of the isolated fungus on potato-dextrose agar (PDA) was white to faintly gray color. Sclerotia formed on the PDA were globose in shape, black in color and <TEX>$2{\sim}14{\times}2{\sim}7mm$</TEX> in size. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth and sclerotium formation was at <TEX>$20^{\circ}C$</TEX> on PDA. Apothecia formed on PDA were globose~disk in shape and 3~8 mm in size. Asci were cylindrical in shape and <TEX>$145{\sim}210{\times}10{\sim}12{\mu}m$</TEX> in size. Ascospores were ellipsoid and <TEX>$10{\sim}14{\times}6{\sim}7{\mu}m$</TEX> in size. On the basis of mycological characteristics and pathogenicity test on host plants, the fungus was identified as Sclerotinia trifoliorum Eriksson. This is the first report on sclerotinia rot of A. sinicus caused by Strifoliorum Eriksson in Korea.
