ABSTRACT
Severe root and stem base rot was noticed for the first time on
Sciadopitys
verticillata
in 3 hardy ornamental nursery stocks.
Phytophthora citrophthora
was isolated from about 4/5 of the analysed plants. In the laboratory trials this species caused stem and root
rot. On stem parts and needles inoculated by isolates from the host plant and
Pinus sylvestris,
necrosis was observed to have spread at
a similar rate. The needles, however, were colonized significantly quicker than the stem parts.
CONFLICT OF INTEREST
The authors have declared that no conflict of interests exist.
