Notes:
Summary Dry rot of stored potatoes in the main dryland production regions of South Africa is caused by eightFusarium spp. An investigation of the effects of temperature showed that maximum decay occurred at 25°C and that the levels of decay were higher than those reported in other countries. Local isolates of pathogenic fusaria are possibly adapted to the local high prevailing temperatures.
