- Abstract
The aim of the study was to determine the effect of temperature on mycelial growth of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. Two isolates of the pathogen collected in 2014 in two southern regions of Poland were used in the experiments. Sclerotia of both isolates were placed on PDA (Potato Dextrose Agar) medium in Petri dishes and incubated at 10, 15, 20 and 25°C and number of days taken by mycelium to fill Petri plate were recorded. Differentiating effect of isolate and temperature was observed in the study. The slowest mycelial growth was observed at 10°C while the fastest at 25°C. Results of experiments were also used for determination of temperature on mycelial growth with the use of exponential models.
