Description
Summary:Fusarium wilt, caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. fragariae, is a major disease affecting strawberry plants worldwide. Since it was first reported in Korea in 1982, strawberry Fusarium wilt has occurred in most cultivated strawberry cultivars. Although many efforts have been made to control the disease, a comprehensive review of Fusarium wilt control is necessary because of its continuing occurrence. In this review, we introduce a variety of strawberry Fusarium wilt management methods, including the pathogen taxonomy involved in this disease, the importance of latent infection, diagnostic techniques, environmental factors, and control methods. We hope that this review will help strawberry farmers and researchers adopt a comprehensive and effective approach for Fusarium wilt control by understanding this disease and studying the latest control methods.
