Abstract A description is provided for Doassansia sagittariae. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Sagittaria species, including S. sagittifolia, S. calycinus, S. cuneata, S. graminea, S. heterophylla, S. lancifolia, S. latifolia, S. montevidensis, S. natans. DISEASE: Leaf spot of Sagittaria species. The round or sometimes vein-limited, angular, spots often cover a large proportion of the leaf surface and are then very conspicuous. The disease usually appears on the plants year after year and is present throughout the vegetative season of the host, athough most obvious in the later part of that season. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread in north temperate regions (33, 634). Europe: Austria, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Russia (European region), Sweden, Switzerland, UK, Ukraine; Asia: Russia (Republic of Georgia, Kazakhstan, Siberia, Yakutskaya ASSR; Ul'yanishchev, 1952); North America: Canada (British Columbia, Manitoba, Ontario, Saskatchewan; 46, 3383), USA (central states, north east states; Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, ME, Missouri, MT, North Dakota, New York, Ohio, South Dakota, Texas, Vermont, Wiskonsin, Wyoming; 69, 2765); South America: Argentina. TRANSMISSION: From the habitat of the host plants water is assumed to be important in dissemination and infection. Germination of ustilospores either before or after release of spore balls by decay of host leaves inevitably results in presence of basidiospores in water. Liro (1938) suggested the probability of a saprophytic, budding phase in water, followed by early stages of host infection under water, but no detailed studies have been reported.

Abstract A description is provided for Ramularia bellunensis. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. DISEASE: Bud disease of pyrethrum (Tanacetum cinerariifolium) that affects those areas where it is grown as a crop (East Africa). On other hosts it causes stem and leaf lesions. HOSTS: Argyranthemum frutescens, Glebionis (Chrysanthemum) segetum, Leucanthemum vulgare, Tanacetum cinerariifolium, T. coccineum, T. corymbosum, T. parthenium (BRAUN, 1998) (Asteraceae). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: AFRICA: Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Zaire. ASIA: Republic of Georgia (www.cybertruffle.org.uk/gruzmaps/index.htm). AUSTRALASIA: New Zealand (www.nzfungi.landcareresearch.co.nz). EUROPE: Germany, Great Britain, Italy, Poland, Romania, Slovak Republic (www.nt.ars-grin.gov/fungaldatabases), Ukraine (Crimea). None reported. TRANSMISSION: Wind and rain-splash dispersal of conidia. The fungus on pyrethrum colonizes the involucral scales, fragments of which can be included with the seeds (NATTRASS, 1947).

Abstract A description is provided for Phoma pinodella. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. DISEASE: A pathogen contributory to causing (spring/summer) black stem of legumes (mainly Pisum and Trifolium), involving foot rot, leaf spots and stem lesions. Also opportunistically pathogenic on many other host plants. HOSTS: On leaves, stems, roots and seeds of a wide range of plants and other substrata. The main hosts are Pisum (pea) and Trifolium (clover) but also recorded on other Papilionaceae including Arachis, Cicer, Glycine, Lathyrus, Lens, Lupinus, Medicago, Phaseolus, Vicia and Vigna. Non-leguminous host plants include Beta, Casuarina, Coffea, Galanthus, Gossypium, Hordeum, Lactuca, Oryza, Petroselinum, Phlox, Triticum and Zinnia. Also reported from soil, hay and straw; however, many records require verification. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: AFRICA: Nigeria, Tanzania. NORTH AMERICA: Canada, USA. SOUTH AMERICA: Argentina, Chile. ASIA: Bangladesh, India, Iraq, Syria. AUSTRALASIA: Australia, New Zealand. EUROPE: Denmark, Germany, Great Britain, Ireland, Netherlands, Poland, Russian Federation, Sweden. Widespread, particularly in temperate regions. Thought to be of American origin (BOEREMA et al., 1993). TRANSMISSION: Plants are infected from seed or by rainsplash-dispersed conidia or from persistent fungal inoculum present on plant debris in the soil. The recent report of a teleomorphic state for this fungus raises the possibility that wind dispersal may also be involved (BOWEN et al., 1997). Cool, moist conditions favour infection but it is suppressed by warm weather.
