Abstract:In 1999, downy mildew was detected on artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) plants from La Plata, Buenos Aires Province. The disease was observed on various commercial varieties. Symptoms were angular interveinal chlorotic spots less than 3 cm in size. These infected areas, although not confluent, covered a wide surface and caused early death of the leaves. On the undersides of these lesions, white-grayish sporulation was abundant, consisting of sporangiophores with dichotomous branches, widened in their peaks with 2… Show more
“…In areas where globe artichoke cultivation has been carried out for many years, there is a decrease in economic efficiency caused by important plant diseases and seasonal improper climatic conditions. It has been reported by various researchers that some important fungal diseases such as Verticillium wilt (Verticillium dahliae), White mold (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum), Gray mold (Botrytis cinerea), Downy mildew (Bremia lactucae) and Powdery mildew (Leveillula taurica) cause serious problems in the globe artichoke production in the World (Oin et al, 2008;Matos 2009;Doley and Jite, 2012;Larran and et al, 2004;Sherf and Macnab, 1986;Carranza et al, 2001;Agrios 2005). The study was carried out on the presence of economically restricting diseases of the globe artichoke produced extensively in the NC and increasing the complaints of farmers.…”
Globe Artichoke is an important export product after the potatoes and citrus fruits in Turkish Republic of Nothern Cyprus. Due to the fact that climatic conditions are very suitable for globe artichoke cultivation in the country, globe artichoke production area reached 5.622 da and were obtained 12 tons of products in 2016. Globe artichoke production is made of 66% in Gazimağusa Region and this followed by 15% in Güzelyurt Region, 11% in Iskele Region and 8% in Lefkoşa Region. Some diseases and pests that restrict globe artichoke cultivation reduce the market value in addition to the advantages of earlyness in production. White mold (Sclerotinia sclerotiorum) disease was detected in 32 locations from the most intensive fungal diseases in simptomatological and morphological analyzes made from plant samples taken from globe artichoke cultivation in 79 locations between 2011-2015. In 444.20 da surveyed area, 67.10% of the globe artichoke locations were found to be infected with pathogenic fungal disease. In the study, in the areas where globe artichoke cultivation is carried out, soil-borne pathogens Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Botrytis cinerea, Macrophomina phaseolina and Fusarium spp. fungal diseases have been identified. The results of this study are important in determining an effective control method with the detection of fungal diseases that affect globe artichoke production and quality in the region.

“…Kenneth and Palti (1984) compiled information about the relationship between Bremia and Asteraceae and observed that Bremia affects mostly hosts of the Cynareae and Lactuceae tribes and only two genera of Astereae. In Argentina, B. lactucae has been reported affecting three members of the Asteraceae family: lettuce (Lactuaceae) (Wolcan et al 2010), escarole (Cichorium endivia, Lactuaceae) (Goldemberg and Castronovo 1960) and most recently on artichoke (Cynareae) (Carranza et al 2001). Downy mildew caused by B. lactucae is an endemic disease in lettuce, which is cultivated in the same area as artichoke, escarole and gerbera but was not noted on gerbera in this region until 2007, and was not confirmed until now.…”
In autumn 2007, leaves of Gerbera jamensonii with typical symptoms of downy mildew were collected in Buenos Aires province, Argentina. Based on symptoms and the morphology of the fungus, the pathogen was identified as Bremia lactucae. This is the first report of downy mildew on gerbera in Argentina.
