Field surveys were carried out on 10 asparagus crops in Queensland to assess the spread and epidemiology of Phomopsis stem blight (caused by Phomopsis asparagi). Phomopsis stem blight causes fern defoliation and kills plants. The disease is not recorded in New Zealand. The disease has spread from Warwick to Beerburrum and Mundubbera, a distance of 350 km. Although the disease was widely spread in the surveyed fields, it did not appear to cause significant damage to the affected crops. In vitro tests on water agar plates showed that all fungicides tested (benomyl, carbendazim, chlorothalonil, copper hydroxide, difenoconazole, iprodione, propiconazole and sulphur) significantly retarded the germination and germ tube elongation of P. asparagi conidia. The three most effective fungicides were benomyl, chlorothalonil and sulphur, which gave complete inhibition of spore germination. In glasshouse tests with plants, benomyl was the only fungicide that significantly reduced the number of lesions/stem and disease severity compared to the inoculated control treatment. Chlorothalonil also reduced the number of lesions/stem and disease rating compared to the control but was not different from other treatments. Field trials are being carried out in Queensland to evaluate the effectiveness of these fungicides for control of Phomopsis stem blight on asparagus crops.
