Resumo

(Prain) Mabb. is a popular houseplant in the United States. In September 2021, two diseased samples from two Ohio homeowners were received by the Ornamental Pathology Laboratory at The Ohio State University. Each sample included one or two detached leaves displaying circular gray water-soaked lesions scattered throughout the lamina and blighted areas with concentric rings bearing brown to black acervuli. Lesions covered between 25 and 50% of the leaf surface. Isolations were made by excising small portions of leaf tissue from the margin of the lesions, surface-disinfesting in 10% bleach for 45 s, rinsing in sterile water, and plating on potato dextrose agar (PDA). Plates were incubated at 23°C for one week. Two representative isolates, one per sample (FPH2021-5 and -6), were obtained by transferring hyphal tips to fresh PDA plates. Mycelia of both isolates were aerial, cottony, grayish-white, producing spores in a gelatinous orange matrix, and appeared gray to olivaceous-gray on the plate underside. Conidia produced by both isolates were cylindrical, single-celled, hyaline, measuring 12.02 to 18.11 (15.51) × 5.03 to 7.29 (6.14) μm (FPH2021-5; n=50) and 15.58 to 20.90 (18.39) × 5.63 to 8.27 (7.05) μm (FPH2021-6; n=50). Appressoria were globose to subglobose, single-celled, dark brown to sepia, measuring 6.62 to 13.98 (8.97) × 5.05 to 6.58 (6.58) μm (FPH2021-5; n=50), and 6.54 to 11.32 (8.63) × 4.54 to 8.94 (7.09) μm (FPH2021-6; n=50). Genomic DNA (gDNA) samples were extracted from both isolates and the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region was amplified using primers ITS1F/ITS4 (Gardes and Bruns, 1993; White et al. 1990). GenBank BLAST sequence analysis resulted in 99.83% (FPH2021-5; GenBank Acc. No. OP410918.1) and 100% (FPH2021-6; OP410917.1) identity with 100% query coverage to the type strain of
