Fungal Diseases Occurring in Bean Cultivation Areas of Turkiye and Their Prevalence
Abstract
Türkiye has an important position for legume production. Occording to the data of 2023, Türkiye has 19th rank for dry bean and 4th rank for fresh bean production in the world. Due to the increase of fungal diseases, bean production and quality has recently shown great reduction. One of the critical diseases affecting bean production is root and collar rots and with this study, fungal diseases causing root rot were investigated in 9 provinces of Turkiye, mainly in Eskişehir, Balıkesir, Kütahya, Bursa, Niğde, Nevşehir, Burdur, Karaman and Konya. Surveys were carried out in these nine provinces in 2018 and 2019 for the main production areas. During the surveys, plants showing damping-off, necrosis on the roots, yellowing on the leaves, discoloration on the vascular elements, wilting and drying symptoms were collected. From the diseased plants; 214 Fusarium spp., 83 Rhizoctonia sp., 32 Macrophomina sp., 12 Alternaria spp., 11 Athelia sp., 4 Ceratobasidium sp., 4 Bionectria sp., 1 Trichoderma spp. and 1 Phythium sp. isolates were obtained. The most common of these fungal genera was Fusarium spp. with a prevalence rate of 16.2%.
