Abstract;A sclerotinia disease of endive, Cichorium endivia L., was found in Okayama Prefecture in November 2003. The symptoms were water-soaked, blight and soft rot of leaves and stems. The fungus consistently isolated from symptomatic leaves was identified as Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on the basis of morphological characteristics. Healthy seedlings were inoculated with the isolated fungus, symptoms of the disease were reproduced, and the fungus was reisolated from the lesions. (author abst.)
