Mefenoxam-Resistant Isolates of Pythium irregulare in an Ornamental Greenhouse in California

Root rot, caused by Pythium species, is a common malady in ornamental greenhouses in Monterey County, CA. In 2001, a root rot of Gerbera daisy (Gerbera jamesonii) and lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflora) caused plant losses in excess of 15 and 75%, respectively, in one greenhouse. Some plantings were to...

520 |a Root rot, caused by Pythium species, is a common malady in ornamental greenhouses in Monterey County, CA. In 2001, a root rot of Gerbera daisy (Gerbera jamesonii) and lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflora) caused plant losses in excess of 15 and 75%, respectively, in one greenhouse. Some plantings were total losses. Although mefenoxam was used repeatedly, no disease control was reported. P. irregulare was identified based on morphological structures produced on grass blades in water (1) and on the sequence of the rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region. Four isolates from each host were tested for sensitivity to mefenoxam in a laboratory bioassay. Using corn meal agar amended with mefenoxam at 0, 0.1, 1, 10, 50, or 100 μg a.i./ml, no inhibition of growth of any isolate occurred at concentrations of 10 μg/ml or less. At 50 and 100 μg/ml, radial growth of colonies was inhibited by approximately 20%. In contrast, 26 isolates of P. ultimum from various agricultural soils in California were completely inhibited by mefenoxam at 100 μg a.i./ml. At 0.1, 1, 10, and 50 μg/ml, growth of these isolates was inhibited by 33, 61, 78, and 96%, respectively. Each treatment was replicated three times, and the experiment was repeated with similar results. Mefenoxam was introduced in 1996 to replace metalaxyl. While metalaxyl contains a mixture of active and inactive enantiomers, mefenoxam contains only the active enantiomer. The intensive use of metalaxyl and mefenoxam in this greenhouse may have resulted in selection for resistant isolates. A resistant isolate (8-007 from Gerbera) has been submitted to the American Type Culture Collection: Manassas, VA. Reference: (1) A. J. van der Plaats-Niterink. Monograph of the Genus Pythium. Stud.
