- Abstract
In February 2021, damping off and collar and root rot on coriander (Coriandrum sativum L.) became widespread in the municipality of Vitória da Conquista, Bahia, Brazil. An oomycete was isolated from root and collar segments of affected seedlings and caused the same symptoms in inoculated seedlings. Based on morphological features and DNA sequences from the ITS and cox2 region, the pathogen was identified as Pythium aphanidermatum. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the occurrence of P. aphanidermatum on coriander plants in Brazil.
