Lee, Bae Ham, Rha, Min Keun and Choi, Tae joo (Dept. of Biology, Kon Kuk University). Identification of the causal organism of cereal scab in Korea. Kor. J. Microbiol. Vol. 2, No. 1, p. 25-27 (1964) Head blight or scab occurred in barley, wheat, rye and some other cereals widely in this country during the spring of 1963. The causal organisms were collected from 34local areas and isolated purely. All isolates identified as Gibberella zeae (Schw.) Petch. and Fusarium graminearum Schw. as conidial stage.

To identify a causal organism of pear scab in Korea, pathogens were isolated from pears of different varieties. Venturia nashicola was found to be the pathogen of the scab disease in Korea.

Increase in tensile strength of steel is important for fuel efficiency and $CO_2$ reduction. But the higher the strip strength, the more defect could be generated in hot strip mill. This study focuses on line-type edge scab. One of the causes for the defect is initial edge cracks commonly observed on a slab but their correlation has not been verified yet. Thus, the objective of this report is to verify if the edge crack is exactly the seed for edge scab. For this, we conducted pilot hot rolling test with cracked slab and compared the development of cracks and edge scabs on hot-rolled strip.

The outbreak of apple scab was found on the apple seedlings growing in Korea which were imported from Marylang, U.S.A. in 1972. Symptom of apple scab is much similar with pear scab caused by Venturia pirina except that the round spot on leaves, more lesions on upper side of leaves and much severe symptoms appeared on both side of leaves. About $14\%\; and \;12\%$ of plants were infected in 1972 and 1973, respectively.

The potato scab is caused by several species of Streptomyces. Among these species, only pathogenic strains were found to produce thaxtomin A characterized by necrotic bioassay and HPLC. In this study, identification of the pathogenic strains of Streptomyces was performed through the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) by using specific pathogenicity primer sets derived from the nec1 gene sequences of Streptomyces scabies. The expected PCR products were obtained approximately 580 bp and confirmed by sequencing. This PCR technique can be used effectively to identify the pathogenic Streptomyces species, that cause scab on potato tubers.

Citrus scab disease is one of the destructive diseases that reduce the value of fruit for the fresh market. We analyzed the process of symptom development after infection with scab pathogen $Elsino{\ddot{e}}$ fawcettii in the susceptible satsuma mandarin leaves to observe the structural modification against pathogen. The cuticle and epidermal cells along with 3-5 layers of mesophyll tissue were degraded 1-2 days post inoculation. Surrounding peripheral cells of degraded tissues grew rapidly and then enveloped the necrotic area along with the growing conidia. Cross sections through the lesion revealed hyphal colonization in epidermis and mesophyll tissues. In response to the pathogen colonization, host cell walls were lignified, inner cells were rapidly compartmentalized and a semi-circular boundary was formed that separated the infected region from the non-infected region, and finally prevented the intercellular pathogen spread.

Potato scab is prevalent in all potato-growing areas of Jeju Island and causes economically significant losses. Streptomyces species are known as pathogens of potato scab. In this study, we analyzed the 16S rRNA sequences of Streptomyces spp, which are isolated from potato scab lesions in Jeju Island, and constructed 16S rRNA phylogenetic tree. All isolates were clearly differentiated into the genus Streptomyces, and the tree also showed that new scab-causing Streptomyces spp or not yet named species of Streptomyces are existed in Jeju Island, Korea.

Pear scab and rust are the major diseases causing severe epidemics in organic cultivation of pear trees. Incidences of pear scab and rust were compared in organically managed plots and conventionally managed plots to obtain optimum application schedule of environment-friendly control agents in organically managed plots. Organically cultural practice with 10 time-applications of lime sulfur and Bordeaux mixture showed higher than 40% of control efficacies of pear scab and rust compared to conventionally cultural practice. Organically cultural practice with 8 time-applications of lime sulfur considering weather condition showed higher than 30% of control efficacies of pear scab compared to conventionally cultural practice. The results suggest that proper application of environment-friendly control agents such as lime sulfur considering weather condition will enable effective control of the major diseases for organic cultivation of pear.

The mixture of fluxapyroxad plus pyraclostrobin or the 9 time-spray schedule with various fungicides was evaluated for their efficacy in controlling pear scab in field trials. It showed sufficient condition to evaluate the efficacy of fungicides for the control of pear scab since disease incidence of the untreated control plot was 58.4% or 100% on leaves or fruits, respectively. Pear scab on leaves was occurred by 6.3% at treated plot with the mixture of fluxapyroxad plus pyraclostrobin, resulting in the 89.2% of control value. Incidence of the fruit disease was 16.7% at treated plot with the mixture of fluxapyroxad plus pyraclostrobin, showing 83.3% of control value. When the 9 time-spray schedule was tested, pear scab was occurred by 5% or 13.3% on leaves or fruits, respectively. Their control values were the 91.4% on leaves or 86.7% on fruits. Although the 9 time-spray schedule showed slightly lower disease incidence than the mixture of fluxapyroxad plus pyraclostrobin, but there is no statistically significant difference. These results suggest that the mixture of fluxapyroxad plus pyraclostrobin can control effectively the pear scab.

A black scab was observed on strawberry(Fragaria ananassa) in plastic film houses around Jinju area during the winter of 2000. The disease started from leaves then moved to calyx and runner. At the beginning, the infected area started with small dark brown spots then gradually expanded. The pathogenic fungus was purely isolated from the diseased leaves, calyx and runner. The fungus was inoculated to test Koch's postulates and proved to be the causal agent of the disease. The isolated fungus grew readily on potato dextrose agar, forming dark green to dark gray colonies. The optimum temperature for mycelial growth was about $25^{\circ}C$. The diameter of growing hyphae was $3.8{\sim}5.6{\mu}m$. Conidia were ellipsoidal, ovoid or subspherical, mostly one-celled but occasionally septate. The size of conidia were $4.1{\sim}11.7{\times}3.8{\sim}5.3$ 1-cell, $9.3{\sim}18.8{\times}4.0{\sim}7.4{\mu}m$ 2-cell and formed in long branched chains on the erected conidiophores which were dark brown and variable in length between $28.8{\sim}236.2{\times}3.0{\sim}6.2{\mu}m$ in size. The fungus was identified as Cladosporium herbarum on the basis of its morphological characteristics. The black scab disease of strawberry caused by C. herbarum has not been reported in Korea previously.
