Abstract
have been reported as new threats to strawberry in several other countries (Rebollar-Alviter 2020; Gilardi 2019). Clarification of the pathogen provides a basis for developing strategies to control the emerging disease. Further studies are needed to evaluate the resistance/susceptibility of major strawberry cultivars and the fungicide sensitivity of the pathogen.
