Infectivity of chlamydospores vs microconidia of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici on tomato

The effect of nature of inoculum on disease induced by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lvcopersici on tomato was tested. Chlamydospores produced in soil 30 days after inoculation induced a more severe disease than microconidia indicating a higher inoculum potential of chlamydospores. The method proposed produces easily an inoculum of F. oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici which infects the plants consistently and induces a relatively high disease severity.
