4 CSIRO Entomology, c/o CERZOS, Universidad Nacional del Sur, CC 738 (8000), Bahia Blanca, Argentina Xanthium spinosum (Bathurst burr) is a widespread summer annual weed in rangeland, pasture and crops in eastern Australia. Prospects for classical biological control of this weed were investigated in the 1990s by carrying out a series of surveys for fungal pathogens attacking X. spinosum in Argentina, the putative country of origin of this plant. The powdery mildew Erysiphe cichoracearum and the facultative parasite Cercospora xanthicola were the most frequently recovered pathogens and were widely distributed within the regions of Argentina surveyed. Significant damage was associated with the presence of E. cichoracearum, which sporulated profusely on both leaf surfaces, stems and shoots. Infection by C. xanthicola was spectacular at several sites in northern Argentina in March 1995, but it appeared that the pathogen was favoured by humid environmental conditions. In following survey...

Curvularia lunata and Phyllachora sp.: two fungal pathogens of the grassy weed Hymenachne amplexicaulis from Brazil2003 •
Hop – Humulus lupulus (Cannabaceae) – is an important and ancient, herbaceous, temperate, perennial crop. It is a vine which, although having other uses, is cultivated predominantly for the brewing industry (Laws 2013). Cultivation of hops in Brazil is relatively new and has increased in the last twenty years. There is only one published record of a fungal disease affecting hop in Brazil – powdery mildew (Fagherazzi et al 2021). In January 2021, leaf spots appeared on all eight hops plants ithe collection maintained in the Infectarium, a disease demonstration garden on the campus of the Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV), Viçosa, Minas Gerais, Brazil (https://www.infectario.ufv.br/). Symptoms were small, sub-circular to irregular spots, up to 5 mm, with a whitish to grayish center, surrounded by a dark brown necrotic margin, followed by a narrow yellowish outer margin. Older lesions became larger, grayish-brown, coalesced leading to extensive necrosis and stem dieback. A sample wa...

First Report of Powdery Mildew Caused by Podosphaera xanthii on Cucurbita argyrosperma in Mexico2021 •
Cucurbita argyrosperma, commonly named as winter or cushaw squash, is highly sought for its seeds, which have important uses in culinary arts. During the autumn 2021, powdery mildew-like signs and symptoms were observed on cushaw squash in several commercial fields located in Cocula, Guerrero, Mexico. Signs were initially appeared as whitish powdery patches on both sides of leaves and then covering entire leaves and causing premature senescence. The disease incidence was estimated to be 80% in about 1000 plants in two fields. The mycelium was amphigenous, persistent, white in color, and occurred in dense patches. A voucher specimen was deposited in the Herbarium of the Colegio Superior Agropecuario del Estado de Guerrero under the accession number CSAEG22. For the morphological characterization by light microscopy, fungal structures were mounted in a drop of lactic acid on a glass slide. Microscopic examination showed nipple-shaped hyphal appressoria. Conidiophores (n = 30) were str...
