Abstract

Fungi belonging to the genus are commonly isolated from soybean plants and seeds but not all of them are pathogenic. The aim of this study was to compare the pathogenicity among different isolates obtained from soybean plants with disease symptoms originating from an experimental field located in the southeast of Poland. Nineteen fungal isolates were selected for the pathogenicity assay, including eight isolates of , six isolates of , four isolates of and one isolate of . Species identification of these isolates was carried out using microscopic methods and sequencing of two genes: translation elongation factor 1-alpha () and RNA polymerase second largest subunit (). To our knowledge, this is the first report of being isolated from soybean in Europe. The pathogenicity test was set up by fungal inoculation of healthy soybean seeds of three cultivars: Abelina, Atlanta and Mavka. Symptoms were assessed seven days after inoculation. Disease area percentage of inoculated seeds was significantly higher compared to uninoculated control. Nineteen isolates differed in their aggressiveness as the median disease area percentage ranged between 5.0 and 88.0% depending on isolate. The obtained isolates of four species may be used in the future screening of soybean cultivars for resistance to these pathogens.
