Abstract:

In order to identify the pathogenic fungi causing the root rot of Codonopsis pilosula in Weiyuan County of Gansu Province and screen the best fungicides to control the disease, the pathogen causing the root rot of Codonopsis pilosula was isolated and purified by tissue isolation and single spore isolation. The pathogen was identified by pathogenicity determination, colony morphological characteristics, and clustering analysis of coding transcription extension factor region (TEF-1α). The toxicity was determined by growth rate method. The results of pathogen identification showed that Fusarium solani and Fusarium acuminatum were the pathogens causing root rot of Codonopsis pilosula in Weiyuan County of Gansu Province. The results of virulence test showed that all the six fungicides had inhibitory effect on them. Among them, 25% myclobutanil EC and 50% carbendazim WP had strong control effect (EC50<0.05 g·L -1), which could be used as the main fungicides to control the root rot of Codonopsis pilosula.

Key words: Codonopsis pilosula, root rot, Fusarium solani, Fusarium acuminatum, identification, fungicide
