Abstract
M. phaseolina, a soilborne pathogen, causing charcoal rot in more than 500 crop species
Splitting sorghum stalks will show ash grey tissue or microsclerotia, the survival structure of the fungus, giving the internal stalk tissue a peppered look
Causes major sorghum stalk rotting, which can lead to plant lodging
Common during seasons with prolonged hot, dry weather or when other unfavourable environmental conditions stress the plant
Despite the lack of formal quantification in Australia, significant yield losses have been associated to prevailing hot dry conditions resulting to widespread high incidences of charcoal rot and subsequent lodging
The present work aims to compare pathogenicity and aggressiveness of isolates, from sorghum and other hosts from the northern region, to sorghum
