- Abstract
The article focuses on the Fusarium species which causes the malformation of mango in Michoacán, Mexico. It examines the disease contribution of several Fusarium species to the mango malformation including F. oxysporum, F. proliferatum, F. mangiferae, and F. sterilihyphosum. The mango malformation symptoms were obtained after 12 weeks on nucellar, 9-month-old Ataulfo mango seedlings inoculated separately with four isolates of the Fusarium sp. using standard protocols. It suggests that F. mangiferae causes the mango malformation in the place.
