are also thought to be susceptible (63, 5459). DISEASE: Rot of stem bases and corms of gladioli; leaf spots and blight of ferns. Leaves begin dying at the tip, initially spots are reddish in colour becoming enlarged and circular and darkening to dark brown to black. Yellow or orange sunken spots develop on the corm. Severity of the disease may be enhanced by the actions of the root knot nematode,
Meloidogyne javanica
(53, 3055), bulb mites and possibly grub and wireworm injury. Young tissue appears to be the most susceptible. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: South Africa, Zimbabwe, China, Japan, Thailand, Australia (NT, NSW, Qd., S.

A description is provided for
Burkholderia solanacearum
. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: The host range is one of the widest of all the phytopathogenic bacteria. The most susceptible plant family, in terms of numbers of species affected is the
Solanaceae
; over fifty other plant families contain susceptible species. The most economically significant hosts are listed here. For a more complete listing see Kelman (1953), Bradbury (1986) and Hayward & Hartman (1994).

spp.,
Gossypium hirsutum, Ipomoea batatus, Lycopersicon esculentum, Manihot esculenta, Musa
spp.,
Nicotiana
spp.,
Solanum melongena, Solanum tuberosum & Zingiber officinale
. DISEASE: Bacterial wilt. Infection is systemic, producing a wilt of parts or the whole plant. Vascular system may become discoloured, bacterial ooze can be produced and plants may be stunted and chlorotic. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread in tropical, subtropical and warm temperate regions of the world (see data sheets on quarantine pests). TRANSMISSION: A variety of modes of transmission exist which are host dependant. Infected planting material and true seed is responsible for the spread of bacterial wilt of banana, ginger, groundnut, potato and tomato, whilst transport of latently infected in seedlings (stawberry) and the actions of insect (Moko disease of banana) and weather (tobacco) have all been implicated. For a review see Kelman
et al.
(1994).

Sagittaria
species, including
S. sagittifolia, S. calycinus, S. cuneata, S. graminea, S. heterophylla, S. lancifolia, S. latifolia, S. montevidensis, S. natans
. DISEASE: Leaf spot of
Sagittaria
species. The round or sometimes vein-limited, angular, spots often cover a large proportion of the leaf surface and are then very conspicuous. The disease usually appears on the plants year after year and is present throughout the vegetative season of the host, athough most obvious in the later part of that season. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread in north temperate regions (33, 634). Europe: Austria, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Russia (European region), Sweden, Switzerland, UK, Ukraine; Asia: Russia (Republic of Georgia, Kazakhstan, Siberia, Yakutskaya ASSR; Ul'yanishchev, 1952); North America: Canada (British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, Saskatchewan; 46, 3383), USA (central states, north east states; Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, ME, Missouri, MT, North Dakota, New York, Ohio, South Dakota, Texas, Vermont, Wiskonsin, Wyoming; 69, 2765); South America: Argentina. TRANSMISSION: From the habitat of the host plants water is assumed to be important in dissemination and infection. Germination of ustilospores either before or after release of spore balls by decay of host leaves inevitably results in presence of basidiospores in water. Liro (1938) suggested the probability of a saprophytic, budding phase in water, followed by early stages of host infection under water, but no detailed studies have been reported.

TRANSMISSION: Long range dissemination is via contaminated seed (73, 5786), diseased planting material (70, 1472) and by movement of infected soil/compost (64, 2160). Locally, conidia are readily spread by water flow, e.g. in irrigation or hydroponic systems (71, 4871, 4872, 6378). Some airborne dispersal of microconidia has been detected in glasshouses (Rowe
et al.
, 1977), presumably resulting from splash droplet formation following sporulation on nearby plant debris. Fungus gnats have been reported to transport the fungus (73, 5534).

(twig),
Vaccinium myrtillus
(stem, twig),
V. vitis-idaea
(leaf, twig),
Vaccinium
sp. (stem, twig). Most records are from
V. myrtillus
. On
Vaccinium
species the fungus tends to be (and is most easily) found more often on taller bushes, but can also occur in arctic-alpine conditions on extremely low bushes. DISEASE: Like several other members of the
Rhytismataceae
on the
Ericaceae
, e.g.
Lophodermium vagulum
(IMI Description 789) and
Terriera cladophila
(IMI Description 1296),
Coccomyces leptideus
colonizes living twigs and ascomata may be found on pale subapical regions of dead bark on these twigs, while distal parts remain apparently healthy.
Coccomyces leptideus
is also found on recently killed twigs, though it is not clear it the fungus is responsible for their death. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Austria, Estonia, Finland, France, Iceland, Italy, Norway, Russia (Caucasus), Sweden, Switzerland, UK (Scotland, Wales), Ukraine, USA (Oregon, Washington). Altitude records exist up to 1900m (France), 1850m (Ukraine), 1070m (Scotland) and 870m (Norway). For further comment on the distribution of this species, see IMI Description 1296 (
Terriera cladophila
). TRANSMISSION: By air-borne ascospores in humid conditions. In the temperate northern hemisphere, ascocarps probably mostly open in late summer and early autumn.

occurs on dead attached twigs which it appears to have killed. Colonized regions of the twig are typically soft and mechanically weaker than other parts. A practised collector may be able to find colonies by the feel of the twig alone. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Estonia, Finland, Germany, Poland, Sweden. TRANSMISSION: By air-borne ascospores in humid conditions; rather old ascomata still containing ascospores have been observed in September.

Therrya pini
. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS:
Pinus mugo
(branch),
P. murrayana, P. strobus, P. sylvestris
(twig). Most records are on
P. sylvestris
. DISEASE:
Therrya pini
and
T. fuckelii
(IMI Description 1297) are both most commonly encountered on a particular category of dead fallen twigs: these twigs never have needles attached, they are usually rather brittle, and the bark is characteristically a rather bright red-brown than on fallen twigs not colonized by these species. Furthermore, the twigs usually have no lichens or bracket fungi growing on them, and have generally not yet been attacked by wood-destroying insects. Both species may also be found on brittle dead attached twigs. At present the exact habitats these two fungi occupy have not been distinguished, and they represent another interesting case of sympatric evolution in the
Rhytismatales
. It seems likely that, like
Colpoma quercinum
on
Quercus
spp. (IMI Description 942), these two fungi have a role in the self-pruning of the tree. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Austria, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Norway, Poland, Sweden, UK (England, Scotland), Ukraine. Altitude records exist up to 320m (Scotland). TRANSMISSION: By air-borne ascospores in humid conditions. In north-west Europe, open ascomata containing ascospores have been observed in August.

A description is provided for
Leucostoma persoonii
. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. DISEASE:
Leucostoma persoonii
is a widespread wound pathogen of fruit trees, especially of stone-fruit trees, being encountered mainly as the anamorph. It is a causal agent of mass wilting of branches and of dieback of young trees, commonly called '
Cytospora
canker disease'. Infection sites may be in decaying fruit racemes and bark fissures due to excessive gum production following wounding or insect attack. The effect of fungicides on incidence of
Leucostoma
canker in stone-fruit trees was studied by Northover (1992). Biggs & Peterson (1990) investigated the effect of chemical applications to bark wounds on accumulation of lignin and suberin, and susceptibility of trees to
Leucostoma persoonii
. A virus-like particle of
L. persoonii
was isolated in pure culture and its characteristics were described (Jensen
et al.
, 1995). Comparative anatomy and host response of peach cultivars inoculated with
L. persoonii
was studied by Biggs (1986). An association between cultivar variation and temporal changes in the infection court after wounding of peach bark was demonstrated when twigs were infected by the fungus (Biggs, 1989). HOSTS: On dead or dying, attached or fallen twigs mainly of members of the Rosaceae (
Amelanchier, Armeniaca, Cerasus, Cotoneaster, Crataegus, Malus, Padus, Persica, Prunus, Pyrus, Rosa, Sorbus
), but also on
Alnus

North America: Canada (Alberta, Ontario), Mexico, USA (California, Colorado, Florida, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, West Virginia). South America: Brazil. TRANSMISSION: Both conidia and ascospores are air-borne, especially under humid conditions. In this case red or dark red droplets or tendrils of conidia are often exuded from the conidiomata. Viable spores are available throughout the year, with a summer maximum, and are affected by temperature and moisture. It is also known that arthropods can carry propagules in stone-fruit orchards (Helton
et al.
, 1988).
