Wide host range
CLADCL
This pathogen is considered primarily a post harvest pathogen that does not cause disease in most of it's hosts (CLADCL-1). The fungus has been isolated from seed in some hosts, but does not transmit or cause disease in most cases.
13 Known Hosts
Brassica oleracea vars.
broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, brussel sprouts
No
CLADCL-1
No references found indicating other Brassica oleracea are hosts. No references found indicating seed is a pathway. This fungus is primarily a post harvest fungus and field debris may provide survival habitat for the fungus, but cabbage is not attacked by the fungus.

Capsicum annuum
pepper
No
CLADCL-1
No references found indicating seed is a pathway. This fungus is primarily a post harvest fungus and field debris may provide survival habitat for the fungus, but pepper is not attacked by the fungus.

Helianthus annuus
sunflower
No
CLADCL-1,CLADCL-4
Pathway not proven. Sharfun-nahar, et.al. reported finding this fungus on seed on blotter tests, but no evidence of seed transmission was provided. This fungus is primarily a post harvest fungus and field debris may provide survival habitat for the fungus, but sunflower is not attacked by the fungus (CLADCL-1)
Yes
Freezing blotter
CLADCL-4
Oryza sativa
rice
No
CLADCL-1,CLADCL-9
Pathway not proven. This fungus was isolated from farmer saved seed in Bangladesh. No other references found indicating seed is a pathway, especially from commercially grown seed. No evidence of seed transmission was provided. This fungus is primarily a post harvest fungus and field debris may provide survival habitat for the fungus, but rice is not attacked by the fungus (CABI, 2020)
Yes

Solanum lycopersicum
tomato
No
CLADCL-1
No references found indicating seed is a pathway. This fungus is primarily a post harvest fungus and field debris may provide survival habitat for the fungus, but tomato is not attacked by the fungus.

wheat
No
CLADCL-1
No references found indicating seed is a pathway. This fungus is primarily a post harvest fungus and field debris may provide survival habitat for the fungus, but wheat is not attacked by the fungus.

Glycine max
soybean
No
CLADCL-1,CLADCL-6,CLADCL-7
Pathway not proven. This fungus was recovered from seed samples in Pakistan (CLADCL-6) and India (CLADCL-7) in the laboratory. No evidence of seed transmission was found in nature. This fungus is primarily a post harvest fungus and field debris may provide survival habitat for the fungus (CLADCL-1, CLADCL-7)
Yes

Pisum sativum
pea
No
CLADCL-1,CLADCL-5,CLADCL-8
Pathway not proven. This fungus was recovered from seed samples in the laboratory. The fungus was just associated with the seed and there was no evidence of seed transmission. This fungus is primarily a post harvest fungus and field debris may provide survival habitat for the fungus (CLADCL-1)
Yes
Blotter and agar incubation
CLADCL-5,CLADCL-8
Treatment was used to reduce fungal contamination and was not specific to the pathogen.
