Abstract

In July and August 2011, a disease suspected to be Rhizopus soft rot was observed on peach (Prunus persica var. vulgaris) at the Wholesale Market for Agricultural Products, Jinju, Korea. The first symptom of soft rot on peach is a water-soaked appearance of the affected tissue. The infected parts later disintegrated into a mushy mass of disorganized cells followed by rapid softening of the diseased tissue. The lesion on peach was rapidly softened and rotted, then became brown or dark brown. Optimum temperature for mycelial growth of the causal fungus on PDA was $30^{\circ}C$and growth was still apparent at $37^{\circ}C$Sporangiophores were 6~20 ${\mu}m$ in diameter. Sporangia were globose and 35~200 ${\mu}m$ in size. The color of sporangia was brownish-grey to blackish-grey at maturity. Sporangiospores were sub-globose, brownish- black streaked and 5~10 ${\mu}m$ in size. Columella were globose to sub-globose and 85~120 ${\mu}m$ in size. On the basis of mycological characteristics, pathogenicity test, and molecular identification, the causal fungus was identified as Rhizopus oryzae Went & Prinsen Geerligs. To our knowledge, this is the first report of soft rot caused by R. oryzae on peach in Korea.

2011년 진주시 농산물도매시장에 판매중인 복숭아에서 이상증상이 발생하였다. 상자 안에 있는 상처 난 복숭아 표면이 수침상으로 물러지고 부패하기 시작하였다. 병징으로부터 분리한 병원균을 감자한천 배지에서 배양한 결과 연한 갈색의 균총과 검은색의 포자낭을 형성하였다. 균사생육 적온은 $30^{\circ}C$이었으나 $37^{\circ}C$에서도 생육이 가능하였다. 포자낭경은 흰색에서 갈색이며 크기는 6~20 ${\mu}m$이었다. 포자낭은 흰색에서 검은색으로 변하며 구형 또는 반구형으로 크기는 35~200 ${\mu}m$이었다. 주축은 구형 또는 반구형으로 크기는 85~120 ${\mu}m$이었다. 포자낭포자는 담갈색, 단포이며 구형으로 크기는 5~10 ${\mu}m$이었다. 이상과 같이 병징, 병원균의 균학적 특징, 병원성 검정, 분자적 동정 결과를 바탕으로 본 병해를 Rhizopus oryzae Went & Prinsen Geerligs에 의한 복숭아 무름병으로 명명할 것을 제안한다.
