The Fusarium solani species complex infecting cannabis (Cannabis sativa L., marijuana) plants and a first report of Fusarium (Cylindrocarpon) lichenicola causing root and crown rot

TLDR
This study demonstrates the first occurrence worldwide of F. lichenicola on cannabis plants, on which it is considered a weak introduced tropical pathogen, likely to have originated from coco coir imported into Canada.
Abstract
Greenhouse-grown cannabis (Cannabis sativa L., marijuana) plants with yellowing, crown rot and root-browning symptoms were sampled from six production facilities during 2019–2020. Among 34 fungal i...

Molecular phylogeny of the Nectria haematococca-Fusarium solani species complex

TL;DR: The complex historical biogeography of this complex appears to reflect vicariant events associated with the fragmentation of Gondwanaland, possible gondwanic range expansions together with relatively recent distributional changes in these fungi associated with movement of economically important plants.
