摘要

In November 2023, symptoms of leaf yellowing and wilting, as well as crown and root rot, were detected on raspberry plants in a commercial field located in Culiacán, Sinaloa, Mexico. Following the isolation of colonies displaying oomycete characteristics, two isolates were purified. Through a combination of morphological examinations, pathogenicity tests, and phylogenetic analysis using ITS and LSU sequence data, the causal agent was identified as Phytopythium helicoides Abad, De Cock, Bala, Robideau, Lodhi & Levesque. This is the first report of P. helicoides causing crown and root rot of raspberry worldwide.
