Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is an underutilized promising grain legume commercially grown in central and northern part of Bangladesh (Yasmin et al. 2020). In January 2021, faba bean plants exhibiting symptoms of collar and root rot and yellowing of leaves were observed in thirty plots of an experimental field at the Bangladesh Agricultural University (24.75° N, 90.50° E), Mymensingh, Bangladesh. Infected plants had dark brown to black lesions on the roots, extending above the collar region. An average disease incidence and severity was 7.16% and 6.91%, respectively. Eight diseased plants were collected from the field by uprooting one plant from each of eight randomly selected experimental plots and surface disinfected with sodium hypochlorite (0.2%) for 3 min followed by 1 min in ethanol (70%), and then rinsed three times with distilled water and dried on sterile paper towels. Collar and root pieces (5×5 mm) of symptomatic tissues were placed on Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA). Plates were incubated at 25°C for three days and isolates were purified from single-tip culture. The isolates produced brown colored mycelia often with brown sclerotia. Under microscope, fungal colonies exhibited right–angled branching with constriction at the base of hyphal branches and a septum near the originating point of hyphal branch consistent with the description of Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn (Sneh et al. 1991). The isolates grew at 35°C on PDA (5 mm/24). Molecular identification of the isolates BTRFB1 and BTRFB7 was determined by sequencing the rDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region using primers ITS1 and ITS4 (White et al. 1990). A BLAST search showed that the sequences (GenBank Accession nos. MZ158299.1 and MZ158298.1) had 99.28% similarity with R. solani isolates Y1063 and SX-RSD1 (GenBank Accession nos. JX913811.1 and KC413984.1, respectively). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the present isolates grouped with R. solani anastomosis group AG-2-2 IIIB. To confirm pathogenicity, both isolates were grown individually on sterile wheat kernels at 28°C for 6 days (D’aes et al. 2011). Faba bean seedlings were grown in plastic pots containing sterile potting mix (field soil/composted manure/sand 2:2:1 [v/v]). Two-week-old plants were inoculated by placing five infested wheat seeds adjacent to the roots. Control pots were inoculated with sterile wheat kernels using the same procedure. Plants were placed in a growth room with a 16 h/8 h light/dark photoperiod at 25 ± 2°C after inoculation. Fifteen days after inoculation, typical collar and root rot symptoms were developed on inoculated plants, similar to symptoms observed in the field. Control plants remained non-symptomatic. Finally, six isolates of R. solani were isolated from the symptomatic plants and identified by morphological and molecular analysis. Rhizoctonia solani is the causal agent of seed and root rot, hypocotyl canker, and seedling damping-off diseases of faba bean in many other countries (Rashid and Bernier 1993; Assunção et al. 2011). To our knowledge, this is the first confirmed report of Rhizoctonia solani causing collar and root rot of faba bean in Bangladesh. This finding will be helpful for the development of management strategies to control this disease and to expand the production of faba bean in Bangladesh.

Chang, K. F., Conner, R. L., Hwang, S. F., Ahmed, H. U., McLaren, D. L., Gossen, B. D. and Turnbull, G. D. 2014. Effects of seed treatments and inoculum density of Fusarium avenaceum and Rhizoctonia solani on seedling blight and root rot of faba bean. Can. J. Plant Sci. 94: 693–700. Production of faba bean cultivars with tannin-free seed on the Canadian prairies has potential for use in human food and as a feedstock for livestock and aquaculture. However, root rot is a major constraint to production. The effects of fungicide seed treatments on root rot caused by Fusarium avenaceum and Rhizoctonia solani, and the effect of inoculum density on seedling emergence, nodulation, root rot severity and yield of faba bean were examined across 12 station years from 2009 to 2011 at sites in Manitoba and Alberta. Fusarium avenaceum reduced seedling emergence more than R.solani, but both pathogens had a similar impact on seed yield. The effects of inoculum density and seed treatment were generally significant for seedling emergence, root rot severity and seed yield for both pathogens. The interaction effects of inoculum density×seed treatment for F.avenaceum and R.solani were only significant for seed yield and seedling emergence. Seedling emergence and seed yield declined with increasing inoculum level for both F. avenaceum and R.solani. Fungicidal seed treatments with Apron Maxx (fludioxonil+metalaxyl) and Vitaflo 280 (carbathiin+thiram) consistently improved emergence and seed yield in trials inoculated with F.avenaceum or R.solani. This study demonstrated that seed treatment to manage root rot of faba bean is warranted.
