Effects of Water Temperature, Inoculum Concentration and Age, and Sanitizers on Infection of Ceratocystis fimbriata, Causal Agent of Black Rot in Sweetpotato

PLANT DISEASE, 105(5), 1365–1372.

author keywords: cultural and biological practices; disease development and spread; disease management; epidemiology; fungi; integrated pest management; maximum residue limit; MRL; vegetables
MeSH headings : Ceratocystis; Ipomoea batatas; Temperature; Water
TL;DR: If packing line dump tanks are improperly managed, they can aid C. fimbriata dispersal through the build-up of inoculum as infected roots are unknowingly washed after storage, and chlorine-based sanitizers can reduce infection when applied after root washing and not in the presence of high organic matter typically found in dump tanks.

Assessing the Role of Temperature, Inoculum Density, and Wounding on Disease Progression of the Fungal Pathogen Ceratocystis fimbriata Causing Black Rot in Sweetpotato

PLANT DISEASE, 104(3), 930–937.

By: M. Stahr n & L. Quesada-Ocampo n

author keywords: causal agent; crop type; cultural and biological practices; disease development and spread; disease management; epidemiology; fungi; vegetables
MeSH headings : Ascomycota; Disease Progression; Humans; Ipomoea batatas; Temperature
TL;DR: This study found 29 and 23°C to be the optimal temperature for black rot disease development and sporulation, respectively and suggested tighter regulation of curing and storage conditions and better postharvest handling of sweetpotato roots to avoid unnecessary wounding.

Black Rot of Sweetpotato: A Comprehensive Diagnostic Guide

PLANT HEALTH PROGRESS, 20(4), 255–260.

By: M. Stahr n & L. Quesada-Ocampo n

author keywords: mycology; Ipomoea batatas; Ceratocystis fimbriata; pathogenicity testing
TL;DR: The objective for this diagnostic guide is to provide information about effective techniques for pathogen isolation, identification, storage, and pathogenicity testing as well as describe the host and geographic range, taxonomy, and disease in sweetpotato. (via Semantic Scholar)
