Isolation and identification of the pathogens causing peanut pod rot in Henan Province
To identify the pathogens responsible for peanut pod rot in Henan Province,92 samples of peanut pod rot were collected from various geographic regions and subjected to tissue isolation techniques.Pathogens were identified based on their morphological and molecular biological,and verified using Koch's rules.The results re-vealed that Fusarium,Aspergillus niger,Aspergillus flavus,Lasiodiplodia theobromae,Sclerotium rolfsii and Neocos-mospora vasinfecta were the pathogenic fungi causing peanut pod rot in Henan Province,with Fusarium as the domi-nant genus.The main Fusarium species identified in this study were F.oxysporum,F.solani,F.proliferatum and F.chlamydosporum,with F.oxysporum and F.solani being the predominant species.This study further confirms that peanut pod rot is caused by multiple pathogens,providing a foundation for controlling this disease in Henan Prov-ince.
