“…The colony characterctics of the pathogen isolated resembled the characters desired by the Nair and McCauley (1987), Calonje et al (2000), Khanna et al (2003) and Justyna et al (2011). So it was concluded that our pathogen was V. fungicola after proving the Koch's postulates.…”

Dry bubble disease induced by Verticillium fungicola has been observed as an important disease of white button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus) in India. The symptoms produced on well differentiated fruit body are localized light brown depressed spots. The adjacent spots coalesce together to form irregular blotches. If the host pathogen infection is established before differentiation, sclerodermoid fruiting bodies appear on casing surface. All the four fungitoxicants tested in vitro by poisoned food technique inhibited the growth of V. fungicola and A. bisporus. Carbendazim gave highest percent growth inhibition of pathogen and host followed by Thiophanate-methyl, Dithane Z-78 and Dithane M-45. In all the fungitoxicants when tested in bed condition, Carbendazim was observed to be most effective in reducing the disease incidence

“…On the other hand, previous studies in the literature report that L. fungicola is unable to infect vegetative A. bisporus mycelium and can only infect the fruiting bodies and primordia at the beginning of the differentiation (Bernardo et al, 2004;Calonje et al, 2000;Cross and Jacobs, 1968), which suggests that infection, must take place in the casing layer. L. fungicola spore germination is inhibited in the casing through antibiotics produced by the casing microbiota (Calonje et al, 2000), and the time point of infection by L. fungicola is therefore linked to the formation of mushrooms (Berendsen et al, 2012).…”

“…The secretion of hydrolytic enzymes (combined with mechanical pressure and the formation of penetration structures) and toxic compounds have been related to the interaction between mycoparasites and hosts (Calonje et al, 2000;Abubaker et al, 2013). Certain secondary metabolites produced by fungal parasites are known for being antagonistic towards A. bisporus (Krupke et al, 2003).…”

Cobweb is a fungal disease of commercially cultivated mushrooms. Several members of the ascomycete genus Cladobotryum sp. have been reported as causal agents. White button mushroom is the most frequently cited host, but a wide range of cultivated edible mushrooms suffer cobweb. The pathology causes production losses and reduces the crop surface available. The parasite produces a great number of harmful conidia that can be released easily and distributed throughout the mushroom farm to generate secondary points of infection. To prevent initial outbreaks, hygiene is of primary importance within the facilities dedicated to mushroom cultivation, while additional measures must be implemented to control and reduce cobweb if there is an outbreak, including chemical and biological methods. This review summarizes and discusses the knowledge available on the historic occurrence of cobweb and its impact on commercial mushroom crops worldwide. Causal agents, disease ecology, including the primary source of infection and the dispersal of harmful conidia are also reviewed. Finally, control treatments to prevent the disease from breaking out are discussed.
