Abstract

Fusarium wilt is a major limiting factor in the commercial watermelon production areas in the world. In Aydın Province, the vine death in watermelons occurs commonly, but engagement of Fusarium wilt in the occurrence of these deaths have still unknown. In this study, the field surveys were conducted to determine prevalence and incidence of Fusarium wilt in the watermelon producing counties of Aydın Province in 2010-2011. In 17 counties, 470 samples were collected from the plants exhibiting disease symptoms. The surveys revealed that the disease prevalence in the counties ranged from 45% to 100%. A total of 185 Fusarium spp. isolates were recovered from the isolations. As a result of pathogenicity and identification studies, 73 isolates were identified as Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. niveum (FON). In the 45 fields where the FON isolates were found, the incidence of Fusarium wilt ranged from 0.17% to 12%.

Özet

Dünyada karpuz üretimini sınırlayan faktörlerin başında Fusarium Solgunlu ğ u hastal ı ğ ı gelmektedir. Ayd ı n ilinde karpuzlarda kurumalar yayg ı n olarak g ö r ü lmekte olup bu kurumalar ı n Fusarium Solgunlu ğ u ile ne denli ili ş kili oldu ğ u bilinmemektedir. Ç al ış mam ı zda Ayd ı n ve il ç elerindeki karpuz ü retim alanlar ı nda kuruma ve solgunluk yayg ı nl ı ğ ı n ı ve bulunma oran ı n ı belirlemek amac ı yla 2010 ve 2011 y ı llar ı nda s ö rveyler ger ç ekle ş tirilmi ş tir. Ayd ı n genelinde 17 ilçe gezilmiş ve hastalık belirtisi gösteren bitkilerden toplam 470 örnek toplanmıştır. Sörvey sonuçlarına göre hastalık görülen ilçelerde hastalık yaygınlı ğ ı n ı n %45-100 aras ı nda de ğ i ş ti ğ i belirlenmi ş tir. İ zolasyonlardan 185 adet Fusarium spp. izolatı elde edilmiştir. Patojenisite ve takiben tanılama çalışmaları sonucunda 73 adet izolat Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. niveum (FON) olarak tanılanmıştır. FON izolatlarının elde edildi ğ i 45 tarlada karpuzda Fusarium solgunlu ğ unun bulunma oran ı %0.17-12 arasında saptanmıştır.
