Abstract | ||||
Isolates of Botrytis spp. collected from faba bean growing governorates of Northern and Middle Egypt were compared for their morphological and physiological characters. Botrytis spp. isolates showed differences in growth rate and spore production as well as number and size of sclerotia while, growth of Botrytis cinerea isolates was faster than those of Botrytis fabae onto all tested media and most of the fabae type isolates produced number of spores less than that produced the cinerea type. Also, B. fabae isolates were the highest number of small sclerotia. Eight faba bean varieties varied in their reaction to chocolate leaf sport disease caused by B. fabae Sard. Giza 402 is highly susceptible cv. (74.2%) while, Giza-Blanka was 402 the highly resistant (40.0%) whereas, Giza-3 was moderately resistant. Also, isolate obtained from Nubaria was more virulent than those obtained from other governorates. | ||||
