Botryotinia

3 Bibliography

Botryotinia is a genus of ascomycete fungi causing several plant diseases. The anamorphs of Botryotinia are
mostly included in the imperfect fungi genus Botrytis. The
genus contains 22 species and one hybrid.

WR Jarvis.Botryotinia and Botrytis species : taxonomy, physiology and pathogenicity : a guide to the
literature (1977)

Plant diseases caused by Botryotinia species appear primarily as blossom blights and fruit rots but also as leaf
spots and bulb rots in the eld and in stored products.
The fungi induce host cell death resulting in progressive
decay of infected plant tissue, whence they take nutrients. Sexual reproduction takes place with ascospores
produced in apothecia, conidia are the means of asexual
reproduction. Sclerotia of plano-convexoid shape are typical. Some species also cause damping o, killing seeds
or seedlings during or before germination.
