Özet

In August 2019, symptoms including dark brown and irregular sunken lesions or blights on the fruit pedicel and calyx of eggplants (Solanum melongena L.) occurred with a 3% incidence in two felds in Şanlıurfa province of Turkey. Advanced symptoms caused complete rotting of the fruit and visible cottony mycelia on the surface of pedicel, calyx, and fruit. To identify the causal agent, isolation was conducted with potato carrot agar (PCA). After an incubation period at 20 °C for 72 h in the dark, isolates obtained were mainly resembling the morphology of Pythium species according to the key of Van der Plaats-Niterink (1981). Sporangia were in an intercalary or terminal position, spherical to elongated, measured between 8–16 μm in diameter (mean 12.3 µm), and plentifully produced on aseptate hyphae. Spherical oospores were usually plerotic and measured 13.6 to 20.7 µm (mean 16.5 µm).
