"During summer to autumn of 2016, the fruit of balsam pear (Momordica charantia L.) with brown and water-soaked lesions was observed in Pingtung and Tainan in Taiwan. At later stage, blackish pycnidia were observed on old lesions of the diseased fruits. The pathogen was identified as Stagonosporopsis cucurbitacearum (Fr.) Aveskamp, Gruyter & Verkley (syn. Didymella bryoniae (Fuckel) Rehm) based on morphological and molecular characteristics. The fungus caused gummy stem blight on stems and black rot on the fruits. In this study, the SC04 and SC10 isolated from black rot fruits and SCl01 isolated from leaf spot infected fruit, leaf and stem of balsam pear in pathogenicity tests. Moreover, six cucurbit cultivars were susceptible to SCl01, SC04 and SC10 isolates, in which watermelon, cucumber, muskmelon and orient melon showed severe symptom on stems. Moreover, in screening of the fungicides for controlling the black rot, triflumizole was found to be able to inhibit the colony growth effectively." |
