- Abstract
This article reports the first occurrence of Fusarium solani causing sugar beet seedling rot in Minnesota, USA. The study collected infected sugar beet seedlings from a commercial field in Moorhead, Minnesota, and characterized the fungal isolates based on their morphological features. The isolates were identified as Fusarium solani through genetic sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. Pathogenicity assays confirmed that the inoculated plants developed symptoms similar to those observed in the field. This finding highlights the need for further surveys to determine the prevalence of this pathogen and the susceptibility of current sugar beet varieties. The research was supported by USDA-ARS funding and did not involve any human or animal participants.
