Gray mold of celery, Apium graveolens L., occurred on Chichijima in Ogasawara(Bonin) Islands in 2007. The pathogen isolated from the diseased plants was identified as Botrytis cinerea Persoon: Fries. An inoculation test confirmed that this fungus was the causal agent of this disease. This is the first report of this disease in Japan.
