Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Barry is a soil habitat plant pathogen, able of infecting more than five hundred host plant spp., all over the world and doing a crucial role in reduce the yield of economically important crops. Sclerotinia rot also known as stem rot, incited by S. sclerotiorum is a certical disease of chickpea. We done an experiment in which, a number of fungal isolation, purification, identification and pathogenicity from the infected plant materals. The plants appear typical symptoms like drooping of petioles and leaflets and in last stage scattered sclerotial bodies. The infected isolates observed on the affected tissues after re-inoculation and generate mycelial growth and sclerotia both plants and culture plates. On re-isolation it was base that the fungus was identical to the authentic isolate. It was found that the infection was much supreme in inoculated plants as compare to control.

“…Fungal isolates were grown on PDA plates for 7-10 d at 25 • C in the dark. The colonies were described by following the general features of M. phaseolina, in terms of colony growth, colony and mycelium morphology [30][31][32][33]. Thus, the isolates, which showed the typical features of Macrophomina sp., were further characterized by microscopic analyses.…”

“…Measurements were carried out on 10 hyphae and 10 microsclerotia and the average values were reported. Morphological characteristics were reported such as mycelium color, septa and right-angle hyphae [19]; moreover, the presence of microsclerotia was evaluated along with shape, color, dimensions and abundance [30]. The strain CREA OF 373.2, isolated from common bean in the same year, which showed the typical M. phaseolina stem soft rot symptoms and stored in the internal CREA collection, was used as reference strain in all the experiments.…”

Occurrence of Macrophomina phaseolina on Chickpea in Italy: Pathogen Identification and Characterization

Climate change has led to the spread of plant pathogens in novel environments, causing dramatic crop losses and economic damage. Botryosphaeriaceae represents a massive fungal family, containing a huge number of plant pathogens, which are able to infect several hosts. Among them, Macrophomina phaseolina is a necrotrophic fungus, responsible for several plant diseases, including the soft stem rot of common bean, crown rot on strawberry and charcoal rot of several legumes. Here, Macrophomina, causing crown charcoal rot in chickpeas, was isolated from symptomatic plants in Cicerale (SA), Campania, South Italy. Morphological and molecular characterization was carried out and pathogenicity tests were performed. Phylogenetic analyses were performed comparing Macrophomina strains coming from different geographic areas and hosts. The experiments confirmed the pathogenicity of the isolate CREA OF 189.2 on chickpea, while host range highlighted the polyphagous nature of this strain; thus, symptoms were reported on lentils, common bean and cantaloupe. The multidisciplinary approach allows us to increase the knowledge about this emerging pathogen. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on Macrophomina phaseolina from chickpeas in Italy.

“…M. phaseolina is a necrotrophic soil‐borne fungus causing charcoal root, stem rot, damping‐off, blight ashy, or stem diseases that infect all the stages of plant growth (Marquez et al, 2021; Su et al, 2001). The fungus forms sclerotia, enabling it to survive under unfavorable conditions and remain viable in the soil for many years (Lakhran et al, 2018). It has been reported that M. phaseolina invades the host roots, blocking the vascular tissues and halting physiological processes such as photosynthesis and growth, resulting in the premature death of host plants (Marquez et al, 2021).…”

Microbial inoculants for controlling soil pathogens are an environmentally sustainable approach for attaining agricultural intensification. Charcoal root rot pathogens might threaten global food security and degrade prime agricultural lands. Microbial antagonists to control charcoal root disease were not properly studied with reference to physiological and photochemical basis. This research was aimed to examine the impact of newly isolated microbial biocontrol agents (MBCAs) on growth and photosynthetic efficiency (photosystem II) in pathogen (Macrophomina phaseolina)‐infected plants. The MBCAs (Purpureocillium lilacinum and Aspergillus terreus) were isolated and seeds were coated to improve soil fertility and resilience of agricultural lands. Both MBCAs inhibited the colonization of pathogenic fungus around the roots of host plants. Decline in growth traits was observed due to the detrimental impacts of root rot disease on growth parameters compared with plants treated with M. phaseolina. However, the growth of corn plants in both soils with and without M. phaseolina infestations was substantially improved by treating corn seeds with P. lilacinum and A. terreus. The pathogen drastically reduced the distinct parameters of photosystem II of photosynthesis. However, applying P. lilacinum and A. terreus significantly improved the total performance index (PItot), size, and the number of active reaction centers of photosystem II (Fv/Fo), electron transport rate, electron trapping per absorption (TRO/ABS), electron transport per absorption (ETO/ABS), electron transport per trapping (ETO/TRO), and the efficiency of light reaction (φEo) but downregulates nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ). Our study demonstrates that microbial antagonists offer a more effective, ecofriendly alternative to improve the land to sustainable agriculture.
