초록
Pestalotia diospyri에 의한 단감 잎마름병은 감 생육중 잎에 주로 발생하나, 간혹 저장 및 시장 유통중 과실에도 발생을 한다. 병징은 잎에 원형, 다각형 또는 부정형의 작은 반점이 생기고 테두리는 검은색이고 가장자리는 적갈색으로 변한다. 병반 뒷면에 검은색의 소립점 형성된다. 저장 및 시장 유통중 과실에 발생할 경우는 과실 꽃받침 부분에서 흰색의 균사가 형성되며 심할 경우 과실전체에 흰색 균사로 덮인다. 균충의 색깔은 흰색을 띠고 배지표면에 물방울 모양의 검은색의 분생포자퇴를 많이 형성한다. 분생포자의 모양은 도란형 또는 방추형이고, 크기가 $16{\sim}22{\times}6{\sim}8\;{\mu}m$이었다. 부속사는 윗부분에 $2{\sim}3$개가 달려있고 크기는 $9{\sim}18\;{\mu}m$이었다. 균사 생육적온은 $30^{\circ}C$였다.
Leaf blight and fruit rot of sweet persimmon (cv. Fuyu) caused by Pestalotia diospyri were observed during the growing season and postharvest such as storage and transport, respectively. Typical symptoms on leaves developed with small brown spots and were later reddish brown colors. In the storage fruit, the white mycelial mats formed between fruit and calyx. The pathogenic fungus was isolated from infected fruits and cultured on potato dextrose agar (PDA). Colony color of the fungus was white at first on PDA. Conidia were ovoid or fusiform, 5 cells, middle 3 cells were olive, upper and lower 2 cells were colorless, and their size were $16{\sim}22\;{\times}\;6{\sim}8\;{\mu}m$. They had were $2{\sim}3$ appendage at basal cell and size $9{\sim}18\;{\mu}m$. Based on the cultural and mycological characteristics and pathogenicity test on host plants and fruits, the fungus was identified as Pestalotia diospyri Syd.&P. Syd. This is the first report on the leaf blight and fruit rot of sweet persimmon caused by Pestalotia diospyri in Korea.
