FUSAPI
Fusarium oxysporum is a soilborne fungus with multiple races, commonly found in soils where host plants grow. It efficiently colonizes roots, can cause seedling death, and is often associated with other root and wilt pathogens. Transmission occurs mainly through contaminated soil, water, plant debris, and tools, while seedborne spread is uncertain.

Pea seed as a pathway for Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. pisi is uncertain. While the fungus has occasionally been detected on or in seeds, there is limited evidence that infected seeds reliably transmit the disease to new plants. Soilborne spread remains the primary route of infection.
Yes
Agar plating
Test developed for identifying Fusarium oxysporum and did not identify the fungus to Fusarium spp.
FUSAPI-2
biological, cultural
Use resistant varieties, disease-free seed, crop rotation, and sanitation to reduce soil inoculum.
