Abstract

An outbreak of new disease with leaf and stem blight symptom occurred at bracken-growing fields in Namhae-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, Korea during the last 4 years. This new disease caused significant yield losses on bracken production in this area. We have collected diseased leaves and stems showing the blight symptom in May, July, and October 2018 to investigate causal pathogens. A total of 92 fungal isolates were obtained from the diseased samples and their pathogenicity was tested on healthy bracken leaves. From the total isolates, 22 isolates were able to produce the leaf blight symptom similar to the original one found in the fields. To identify two fungal pathogens which showed higher virulence levels compared to other pathogenic isolates, we constructed phylogenetic trees using the nucleotide sequences of genes for ribosomal RNA, RNA polymerase beta subunit, beta tubulin, and internal transcribed region. Most phylogenetic trees constructed indicate that both isolates, which are identical to each other, reside in a clade of the genus Didymella and possibly similar to D. rumicicola or D. acetosellae. Nevertheless, the exact identification of these pathogens at the species level needs further investigations. This is the first report of a blight disease on bracken by Didymella sp.

최근 4년간 경남 남해군 창선면 일대 고사리 재배 포장에서 마름병 증상을 보이는 새로운 병해가 발생하였고 이 병해로 인하여 해당 지역 고사리 생산량이 해마다 크게 감소하고 있다. 2018년 5월, 7월, 10월에 이병 시료를 채취하여 그로부터 총 92개의 곰팡이 균주를 분리하였다. 이들 균주를 건전한 고사리 잎에 접종하여 총 22개 곰팡이 균주가 포장에서 발생된 병징과 동일한 병징을 일으킴이 확인되었다. 이 중 병원성이 가장 높은 2균주를 선발하여 ribosomal RNA, RNA polymerase ${\beta}$-subunit, ${\beta}$-tubulin 유전자 부위, internal transcribed region을 증폭하였다. 해당 증폭 부위의 염기서열을 이용한 계통수 작성을 통해 병원균 균주는 Didymella속의 clade에 속하며, 기존 균주 중 D. rumicicola 또는 D. acetosellae와 비슷하나 기존 종 수준의 subclade에는 포함되지 않았다. 따라서 고사리 마름병을 일으키는 병원균의 정확한 종 동정을 위해 추가적인 분석이 필요하다. 본 결과는 Didymella sp.에 의한 고사리 마름병 발생 첫 보고이다.
