Pathogenicity of Fungi Isolated from Atypical Skin Blemishes on Potatoes in South Africa and Zimbabwe

2017-06-01

Abstract excerpt

Potato skin blemishes with known causes (typical blemishes) are manageable in contrast to those with unknown causes (atypical blemishes). This study investigated possible fungal causal agents of atypical tuber blemishes in South Africa and Zimbabwe through isolation and pathogenicity testing. Several fungal genera were isolated from elephant hide, corky cracks, star-shaped lesions, circular corky lesions, raised c...
