Abstract

Root rot of cucumber occurred on Hahajima in Ogasawara (Bonin) Islands in 2013 and 2014. The causal fungi isolated from the diseased plants were identified as Globisporangium (Pythium) splendens. Inoculation tests confirmed that this fungus was the causal agent of the disease. This is the first record of the disease in Japan.
