Article Synopsis
- - Patchouli, an important medicinal plant used in traditional medicine, is facing a severe leaf spot disease in Guangxi, China, with over 50% of plants affected, showing symptoms like brown spots and yellowing.
- - Researchers collected and analyzed affected leaves from various locations, isolating a fungal pathogen believed to be Aspergillus sp., with 90% of the sampled plants yielding similar fungal characteristics.
- - For further identification, the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and the β-tubulin (TUB) gene of the fungal isolates were sequenced to confirm their identity.
Millettia speciosa Champ, renowned for its diverse applications in traditional medicine, is extensively cultivated in the Guangxi region of China, spanning roughly 5,973 hectares. In July 2021, a plantation in Yulin, Guangxi, China (22°64'N; 110°29'E), exhibited severe leaf spot disease on M. speciosa.
