Deciphering the morphological, molecular, and pathogenic variability in Fusarium species associated with potato dry rot disease
mycolabadmin
Researchers studied potato dry rot disease in India by collecting diseased potatoes from storage facilities and identifying the fungal pathogens responsible. They found that three Fusarium fungi species cause this disease, with Fusarium sambucinum being the most aggressive and damaging. The study provides important information for farmers and agricultural scientists to better control this disease and reduce potato losses during storage.
