Mycocentrospora acerina is a soil-borne fungal pathogen that produces dark, septate conidia and survives in soil or on plant debris. It infects plants through wounds under cool, wet conditions. While primarily soil-borne, seed transmission has been proven in pansy and caraway, making infected seeds a potential source of inoculum.
Main: celery, carrot, lettuce, caraway; Other: peony
