Burkholderia cepacia
. [Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria].
Authors: UK, CAB International  , Saddler G. S. 
Published: July 2021

Abstract

A description is provided for
Burkholderia cepacia
. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Common host is
Allium cepa
, but can also cause disease in
Allium sativum
. Also identified as causing disease in
Lycopersicon esculentum
(63, 3168), a cavity disease of a cultivated mushroom (
Agaricus bitorquis
) (72, 5605) and a leaf spot on the a number of orchids including
Cymbidium
spp.,
Dendrobium
sp. and
Paphiopedilum
spp. (66, 4326). The bacterium can also be found in soil, in clinical material, in disinfectant solutions and as an opportunistic pathogen of man and animals. It is gaining in significance as a major pathogen for sufferers of cystic fibrosis (Isles
et al.
, 1984; McKevitt & Woods, 1984; Thomassen
et al.
, 1985). DISEASE: Onion slippery skin; this is a rot of bulb scales, usually occurring at or near maturity, sometimes in storage. The bacterium does not appear to be strongly invasive, attacking plants that are damaged or weakened. Bacteria are thought to gain entry through the neck or leaf blades as the foliage falls over and the epidermis breaks, at maturity (64, 5550). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Worldwide. TRANSMISSION: Appears to be a soilborne wound pathogen.

Published: July 2021

Abstract

A description is provided for

Anthracoidea caricis
. [Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria].
Authors: UK, CAB International  , Mordue J. E. M. 
Published: July 2021

Abstract

A description is provided for
Anthracoidea caricis
. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS:
Carex pilulifera, Carex montana
and occasionally other species of
Carex
in section
Montanae
. In addition to these, its regular principal and accessory hosts, a few
A. caricis
sori occur rarely on other, probably unrelated, species of
Carex
. DISEASE: Smut of
Carex
. Since the ovaries are destroyed, infected flowers cannot set seed. However, infection is not systemic but is confined to individual florets, often leaving parts of the inflorescence to develop normally; seed production is therefore reduced, not prevented entirely. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Europe: Austria, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece (52, 2856), Hungary, Iceland, Norway, Poland, Romania, Russia (European region), Sweden, Switzerland, UK (Scotland); North America: Canada (Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, NS, NT, Ontario, Quebec, Saskatchewan); Greenland; USA (Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Massachussetts, ME, Montana, MN, North Dakota, New Hampshire, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Wisconsin, Wyoming) (Kukkonen, 1963; 69, 2765). TRANSMISSION: Ustilospores and basidiospores are disseminated by wind and rain, possibly also by insects living in the sedge tussocks. Infection occurs in individual inflorescences. It is thought that high latitude and altitude favour infection because a comparatively short vegetation period increases the chances of synchronous anthesis and ustilospore germination and therefore of successful infection. High atmospheric humidity also may be important for infection (Nannfeldt, 1979).
