Article Synopsis
  • Sweet persimmon (Diospyros kaki L.) is a valuable fruit in Asia, but a summer 2023 outbreak in Guangxi, China, showed that 20-30% of trees developed leaf spots, leading to poor fruit nutrient accumulation.
  • The leaf infection started with light brown spots, which turned into dense lesions with yellow halos, prompting scientists to isolate the pathogen using sterilized leaf pieces placed on potato dextrose agar plates.
  • The isolated fungi were identified as Fusarium kyushuense through molecular analysis, specifically PCR and sequencing of various gene regions, demonstrating over 99% similarity to known strains in genomic databases.
