CucCAP scientists collaborate to develop diagnostic guide for fusarium rot of pumpkin and winter squash

Fusarium rot is an important soil-borne disease impacting production and storage of pumpkins and winter squash. A new guide has been published to facilitate diagnosis of this disease by outlining taxonomy, symptoms, isolation, and epidemiology of the disease, and providing morphologic and PCR-based methods to identify the pathogen.
