Bostock, Professor, Department of Plant Pathology, University of California, Davis, of a fungal pathogen, <em>Fusarium brachygibbosum<\/em>, detected in cold-stored, bare-root nursery almond trees in California. This detection marked a first report of the pathogen in California.\u00a0 Therefore, a risk analysis of <em>F. brachygibbosum<\/em> to California agriculture and environment was conducted and a permanent rating is proposed here for the otherwise non-rated pathogen.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>History &amp; Status:<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><strong><u>Background<\/u>:<\/strong> In California, Seidle <em>et al. <\/em>(2016) reported the first detection of <em>Fusarium brachygibbosum<\/em> from asymptomatic, cold-stored, bare-root propagated almond (<em>Prunus dulcis<\/em>) trees.\u00a0 Samples had been collected in fall 2013, from a nursery in Sutter County.<\/p>\n<p>In 2011, that same nursery had experienced the re-emergence of a canker disease that occurred in the late 1900s.\u00a0 During the winter of 1997-98, a severe canker disease developed during cold storage of dormant almond trees and other fruit tree species in several nurseries in California.\u00a0 <em>Fusarium acuminatum <\/em>and <em>F. avenaceum <\/em>were identified as the primary causal agents of the disease.\u00a0 The predominant symptoms were necrosis of the inner bark, cambium, and sapwood, which in severe cases, resulted in girdling and death of trees. However, in the absence of external symptoms, internal necrosis was not readily evident in dark-bark trees, but detectable in light-bark trees.\u00a0 Notably, the canker phase of <em>Fusarium<\/em>-infected young trees did not become apparent unless predisposed by some physiological stresses.\u00a0 Consequently, infected trees were distributed to growers and the disease that developed under abiotic stress factors, including desiccation and variable cold storage temperatures, resulted in loss of thousands of trees, newly planted orchards, and millions of dollars (Marek <em>et al<\/em>., 2013). <em>Fusarium acuminatum<\/em> and <em>F. avenaceum<\/em> were also detected along with <em>F. brachygibbosum <\/em>in the 2013 almond samples reported by Seidle <em>et al.<\/em> (2016).\u00a0 The ability to detect <em>F. brachygibbosum<\/em> during the last few years than earlier was likely due to the availability of molecular tools for distinguishing this pathogen from other <em>Fusarium<\/em> species associated with nursery trees and storage\/processing facilities and fields <em>(Personal communication: Dr. R. M. Bostock, Professor, Department of Plant Pathology, University of California, Davis).<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Fusarium brachygibbosum<\/em> has been found on diverse host species within five plant families and reported from few countries in Asia, Africa, and North America (see \u2018Worldwide Distribution\u2019).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hosts:<\/strong> <em>Citrullus lanatus<\/em> (watermelon; Cucurbitaceae), <em>Euphorbia larica<\/em> (spurge; Euphorbiaceae), <em>Sorghum vulgare<\/em> (broom corn; Poaceae), <em>Triticum<\/em> spp.\u00a0 (wheat; Triticeae), <em>Prunus dulcis<\/em> (syn. <em>P. amygdalus<\/em>, almond; Rosaceae) (Al-Mahmooli <em>et al<\/em>., 2013; Farr &amp; Rossman, 2016; Mirhosseini <em>et al.,<\/em> 2014; Renteria-Martinez <em>et al.,<\/em> 2015; Seidle <em>et al.,<\/em> 2016; Van Coller <em>et al<\/em>., 2016).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Symptoms:\u00a0<\/strong> <em>Fusarium brachygibbosum<\/em> is associated with symptoms of wilting, dieback, and cankers and has often been found infecting plants with a complex of fungi species.\u00a0 Therefore, symptoms particular to the species have only been demonstrated experimentally through pathogenicity tests.\u00a0 In pathogenicity tests using almond branches inoculated with <em>F. brachygibbosum<\/em> and incubated at 15\u00b0C for two weeks, Siedle <em>et al<\/em>. (2016) found that canker lesions (area: 26.7 mm<sup>2<\/sup> to 83.0 mm<sup>2<\/sup>) developed, comparable to those produced by <em>F. acuminatum<\/em> and <em>F. avenaceum<\/em>. Additionally, <em>F. brachygibbosum<\/em> was found in asymptomatic almond rootstock.\u00a0 Experimentally in watermelon, <em>F. brachygibbosum<\/em> produced variable sized light brown colored lesion at neck and root causing wilting of leaves or whole plants (Renteria-Martinez <em>et al<\/em>., 2015). The pathogen produced dark brown to black, circular to elliptical leaf spots in oleander (Mirhosseini <em>et al<\/em>., 2014).\u00a0 In South Africa, <em>F. brachygibbosum<\/em> was isolated along with several other <em>Fusarium<\/em> species from kernels of field-grown wheat exhibiting symptoms of Fusarium head blight disease (Van Coller <em>et al<\/em>., 2013).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Disease cycle:<\/strong> While the disease cycle has not been reported specifically for <em>Fusarium brachygibbosum<\/em>, it is likely that it is similar to other <em>Fusarium<\/em> species causing canker and wilt disease.\u00a0 Generally, <em>Fusarium<\/em> species inhabit soils and plants.\u00a0 They can exist saprophytically, but can also act as opportunistic pathogens.\u00a0 On hosts predisposed by stress, as in cold storage temperatures, or in combination with other pathogens, symptoms may become severe.\u00a0 The pathogen overwinters as mycelium or spores in infested crop residues and seed, or as chlamydospores (thick walled asexual spores) in soil, and produces asexual spores (microconidia and macroconidia) which are dispersed to plants and other plant debris by wind or rain-splash. Generally, under warm and humid conditions, sexual spores are produced which are forcibly discharged into the air and transmitted by wind currents to susceptible plants where infection and further development of the pathogen occur.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Damage Potential:<\/strong> Precise losses due to <em>Fusarium brachygibbosum <\/em>have not been reported.\u00a0 More than one <em>Fusarium<\/em> species and\/or other fungal species may be present in cold-stored canker diseased nursery stock (Marek <em>et al<\/em>., 2013).\u00a0 <em>Fusarium brachygibbosum<\/em> may remain cryptic and asymptomatic within the host, and the canker phase does not become apparent unless young trees are subjected to some physiological stress. Asymptomatic, infected nursery trees may result in the development of the disease and losses in production in the field.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Transmission:<\/strong> Infected plants, roots, stems, leaves, seeds (Van Coller <em>et al.,<\/em> 2016), plant debris, soil, air currents, rainwater splash, and contaminated equipment.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Worldwide Distribution<\/u>:<\/strong> <em>Asia<\/em>: India, Iran, Oman; <em>Africa<\/em>: South Africa; <em>North America<\/em>: Mexico, USA (California) (Al-Mahmooli <em>et al<\/em>., 2013; Farr &amp; Rossman, 2016; Mirhosseini <em>et al.,<\/em> 2014; Renteria-Martinez <em>et al.,<\/em> 2015; Seidle <em>et al.,<\/em> 2016; Van Coller <em>et al<\/em>., 2016).<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Official Control<\/u>:<\/strong> None reported.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>California Distribution<\/u>:<\/strong> Sutter and Stanislaus Counties (Seidle <em>et al<\/em>., 2016).
