1 Operating a State-wide Strawberry Disease Diagnostic Services Center Principle Investigator Steven T.

With the support of the California Strawberry Commission and the strawberry industry, we operate a diagnostic lab in Salinas that focuses on diagnosing problems for strawberry growers throughout the state of California. This diagnostic service is intended to confirm the presence of common, well known strawberry pathogens as well as to be in the position to detect new diseases and problems if these might arise. We continue to offer culture-based soil tests for Verticillium inoculum levels and are developing methods to conduct culture-based assays for Macrophomina. Diagnostic services are available to all segments of the strawberry industry, ranging from large operations to limited resource growers, and includes transplant growers, production growers, pest control advisors, and other field professionals. Lab findings are communicated to growers and also to other strawberry researchers, increasing the opportunity for collaborative research. Our local presence on the coast also facilitates timely analyses for those who submit samples. 29
2 In 2015 through 2016, our lab continued to be called upon to confirm cases of the three major soilborne pathogens: Macrophomina, Fusarium, and Verticillium. All three pathogens remain significant concerns for growers in all the coastal strawberry production regions from Ventura in the south through Santa Cruz in the north. In 2016, our lab confirmed cases of anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum acutatum; the development of anthracnose was clearly linked to rainfall that occurred during the growing season. Introduction The goals of the project include: 1. General strawberry diagnostics. Strawberry pathogen assays were standardized and implemented at the UC Cooperative Extension lab in Salinas, California. Standard protocols were used for testing plants for Macrophomina, Fusarium, Phytophthora, Verticillium, Rhizoctonia, Colletotrichum, Cylindrocarpon, and Xanthomonas. Leaf blotch disease caused by Zythia is identified by examining leaf lesions for the characteristic fungal structures. Soil samples were tested for Verticillium and Macrophomina propagules using a dry sieve method and NP-10 semi-selective medium. Our diagnostic services also identified non-pathogen problems such as plant establishment problems due to stress and production issues, and fruit bronzing due to environmental factors. 2. Statewide diagnostic services. To increase services to growers in various strawberry production areas in the state, we enlisted the involvement of Cooperative Extension personnel in various counties and researchers at UC Davis and the USDA-ARS in Salinas. Services were provided to strawberry growers, transplant producers, and pest control advisors from throughout the state. 3. Coordinate with other researchers working with strawberries. To integrate this extension effort with the overall research program for strawberries, we communicated with various UC and USDA researchers so as to inform them about pertinent lab findings. We are actively collaborating with Tom Gordon (UC Davis) and Frank Martin (USDA) on the Macrophomina and Fusarium soilborne disease concerns. We consulted with Bill Wintermantel (USDA) regarding virus disease cases. 4. Focus on current soilborne issues. Because of the development of Macrophomina and Fusarium soilborne problems, we particularly focused on strawberry dieback cases and advised growers on this issue. This aspect of the diagnostic program, along with confirmation of Verticillium wilt, comprised the majority of the samples received in CALIFORNIA STRAWBERRY COMMISSION ANNUAL PRODUCTION RESEARCH REPORT
3 Methods Submitted plant samples are always tested for general pathogens using non-selective, non-specialized media (acidified corn meal agar and other agars for fungi; sucrose peptone agar for foliar bacteria). As deemed appropriate, other selective, specialized media are added to the isolation protocols (PARP for Phytophthora and Pythium, NP-10 for Verticillium, FS for Fusarium, modified Mather s for Colletotrichum). We particularly focused on the developing Macrophomina and Fusarium problems on strawberry. Collapsed strawberry samples were examined specifically for both of these soilborne pathogens as well as for Verticillium. For soil, the dry sieve soil assay and NP-10 medium are used for Verticillium. In addition, we can also use the same NP-10 medium for soil assays for Macrophomina, though efforts are underway to determine more efficient assays for this pathogen. Results and Discussion We regularly tested for and detected both of the recently reported soilborne diseases caused by Macrophomina and Fusarium. Both pathogens continue to be significant concerns for growers in all of the coastal counties. Additional fields having Verticillium wilt cases occurred in , demonstrating that growers need to remain aware of this damaging pathogen. Because the dieback symptoms caused by Verticillium, Macrophomina, and Fusarium are very similar, laboratory testing is required to identify which pathogen is involved. The season was notable for the development of Phytophthora crown and root rot in a number of counties. The relatively wet spring in 2016 apparently facilitated disease development, which in previous seasons was rare. Extension Diagnostic findings were communicated with growers and PCAs who submitted the samples. Disease developments were highlighted in our UC Cooperative Extension newsletter (Crop Notes) and also the extension blog sponsored by Farm Advisor Mark Bolda ( Important findings from our diagnostic lab were also communicated to Spanish-only speakers by translating and posting the articles on the Spanish language blog ( Disease management: Both Macrophomina crown rot and Fusarium wilt diseases cause significant plant decline, particularly when plants are bearing heavy fruit loads and when stress factors (elevated temperatures, especially) are present. Both pathogens are soilborne, so growers should beware of spreading the fungi to uninfested fields via mud and dirt on implements and tractors. Growers should minimize plant stress by irrigating appropriately and managing factors such as mites; however, infected plants likely will develop disease even in the absence of stress. Some strawberry cultivars are resistant to one or the other of these pathogens and do not become as severely diseased compared to very susceptible cultivars.
