Abstract

Phytophthora cactorum is reported causing a fruit rot of persimmon (Diospyros kaki) in New Zealand. The oomycete was isolated from rapidly developing brown rots of fruit that were observed pre-harvest. P. cactorum was identified on the basis of morphology and molecular tests, and confirmed as the causal agent by fulfilling Koch's postulates. © Australasian Plant Pathology Society Inc. 2013.
