Effect of low temperature on growth and pathogenicity of Phoma betae on sugarbeet steckling in storage.

The effects of temp. on mycelial growth and spore germination of P. betae [Pleospora betae] were determined at 20, 10, 4, 2, 0, -2 and -4 deg C in culture. Pathogenicity on steckling roots of sugarbeet was investigated at 20, 10, 4, 2, 0 and -1.5 deg in storage. Colony enlargement was significantly limited and spore germination was delayed by decreasing temp. from 20 to -4 deg . P. betae was able to grow and germinate on PDA at temp. as low as -4 deg . Disease incidence and lesion development caused by P. betae on sugarbeet steckling roots were also inhibited by decreasing temp. from 20 to -1.5 deg . The infection of P. betae on wound-inoculated roots occurred earlier with a higher disease incidence compared with unwound-inoculated ones. Infection by contact with decayed roots was quite high, although it was reduced by lower temp. during storage.
