Abstract:
Three Fusarium wilts recently observed in Italy on lettuce (Lactuca sativa), wild (Diplo taxis spp.) and cultivated (Eruca sativa) rocket and lamb's lettuce (Valerianella olitoria) emerged as major production problems in Lumbardy (north-western Italy). Aspects of biology and epidemiology of the three diseases and some possibilities of disease management are discussed.
