Molecular and Morphological Identification of Species Causing Sheath Rot of Rice in Thailand and Their Division into Physiological Races.

Sheath rot and dirty panicle are some of the major diseases of rice in Thailand. The diseases are traditionally considered to be caused by the pathogen and damage and lower both the quantity and quality of rice grain. In this study, 32 fungal isolates collected from the central and northeastern regions of Thailand were analysed phylogenetically using three molecular markers (ITS, D1/D2 of 28S rDNA and ) and physiological races were determined on 10 differential rice cultivars.

Histopathology and quantification of green fluorescent protein-tagged f. sp. isolate in resistant and susceptible germplasm.

sp. nov., Causing Leaf Blight Disease of Water Hyacinth from Thailand.

sp. nov. was observed and collected from Chiang Mai and Phetchaburi Provinces, Thailand.

Discovery of teliospores of a Cape jasmine rust fungus, (), and its occurrence in Thailand.

is an accepted name for a Cape jasmine () rust fungus distributed in East Asia. The fungus name was based on uredinial anamorph collected in Taiwan in 1931. The fungus was rarely collected in Taiwan and southern Japan, and its telial stage remained unknown.
