Abstract:The study aimed to verify the presence of latent pathogens from the Botryosphaeriaceae family, associated with black root rot and stem dry rot, in healthy propagative material of Manihot esculenta in Brazil. To this end, we investigated the composition of endophytic fungal communities present in fresh healthy stems collected from M. esculenta plantations. Forty-one genera, two families and one subclass of fungi were identified in the collected samples. We detected the species of Botryosphaeriaceae - Lasiodiplo… Show more
