Özet
Lemon balm (Melissa officinalis L.) is native to the Eastern Mediterranean region and Western Asia and is a well-known medicinal plant of Lamiaceae due to its valuable aqueous and alcoholic extracts (De Sousa et al. 2004). In the summer of 2021, wilting and root rot were observed on about 20% of two-year-old M. officinalis cv. Melis plants in a field of Koruklu village, Akçatepe district of Şanlıurfa, Turkey. Roots of symptomatic plants were collected and dissected into small pieces (5 mm), surface-sterilized in 1% sodium hypochlorite, rinsed in sterile water, and placed on potato dextrose agar (PDA). Fast-growing and fluffy dark grey fungal colonies consistently emerged from the segments after incubation at 26 °C in the dark for 5 days and had abundant microsclerotia, which were dark, smooth, oblong-shaped, and measured 123 μm × 82 μm (n = 50).
