Nursery-to-Field Carryover and Post-Outplanting Impact of Macrophomina phaseolina on Loblolly Pine on a Cutover Forest Site in North Central Florida

The charcoal root rot fungus— Macrophomina phaseolina (Tassi) Goid.— was carried over from nursery seedbeds to a field planting site on asymptomatic, apparently healthy loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) seedlings. Seedlings on which the pathogen was carried to the field exhibited reduced survival over two growing seasons. The implications of this nursery-to-field carryover are discussed.
