“…Fusarium species have a very broad host range. They cause economic losses in all cereal crops in North America and western Europe,cotton, wheat and barley in China, rice plants in Taiwan, Thailand and Japan, in all important crops in the tropics and worldwide in timber trees in the forest (Voigt, 2002).…”

“…The fungus also produces different mycotoxins like fusaric acid and lycomarasmin in vessels that flow from vessels to the leaves. In leaves, they affect the process of photosynthesis by reducing the production of chlorophyll (Voigt, 2002).…”

“…The plant parts which are rotted may seem like water soaked and the color of the infected area turn brownish and finally black. Plant stops growing and roots, as well as stems, die due to rotting (Voigt, 2002). In the case of cereals, the rotting of the stalk happens which results in the (Hansen, 1966) 05.…”

“…Roots are also affected which results in the discoloration of leaves, breaking of the stalk and premature death while in case of maize ear rot, pink or red mould may appear on ears. In early infection by ear rot, complete rotting of ears happens which leads to the development of pinkish mould between ears and husk (Voigt, 2002).…”

Citrus wilt is a disease of recent appearance in the northern area of Veracruz that causes economic losses to producers in the region. The present work aimed to identify the causative agent of this disease and evaluate different fungicides to determine its in vitro sensitivity. A fungus was consistently isolated in plants with wilt symptoms; it was morphologically identified indifferent culture media and molecularly identified by PCR using the EF1-728F/EF1-986R primers. The fungus was inoculated in three varieties of citrus under greenhouse conditions. The sensitivity test was carried out with the fungicides chlorothalonil, benomyl thiabendazole, prochloraz, and a biological agent (Bacillus subtilis) at different concentrations, plus a negative control. Fusarium sp. (Accession No. MW438335) was morphologically and molecularly identified as the causal agent of vascular wilt in citrus fruits, causing growth retardation, decreased number of roots, wilting of the apical bud, and necrosis in the vascular system of the three varieties inoculated. The most effective fungicides in inhibiting mycelial growth were thiabendazole, prochloraz, and the biological agent Bacillus subtilis.

Fusarium species are cosmopolitan soil phytopathogens from the division Ascomycota, which produce mycotoxins and cause significant economic losses of crop plants. However, soils suppressive to Fusarium diseases are known to occur, and recent knowledge on microbial diversity in these soils has shed new lights on phytoprotection effects. In this review, we synthesize current knowledge on soils suppressive to Fusarium diseases and the role of their rhizosphere microbiota in phytoprotection. This is an important issue, as disease does not develop significantly in suppressive soils even though pathogenic Fusarium and susceptible host plant are present, and weather conditions are suitable for disease. Soils suppressive to Fusarium diseases are documented in different regions of the world. They contain biocontrol microorganisms, which act by inducing plants’ resistance to the pathogen, competing with or inhibiting the pathogen, or parasitizing the pathogen. In particular, some of the Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Paenibacillus and Streptomyces species are involved in plant protection from Fusarium diseases. Besides specific bacterial populations involved in disease suppression, next-generation sequencing and ecological networks have largely contributed to the understanding of microbial communities in soils suppressive or not to Fusarium diseases, revealing different microbial community patterns and differences for a notable number of taxa, according to the Fusarium pathosystem, the host plant and the origin of the soil. Agricultural practices can significantly influence soil suppressiveness to Fusarium diseases by influencing soil microbiota ecology. Research on microbial modes of action and diversity in suppressive soils should help guide the development of effective farming practices for Fusarium disease management in sustainable agriculture.
