Abstract A description is provided for Rhizopus microsporus. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: In soil and plant debris and pathogenic for man and rabbit (alloxan-diabetic) (causing mycoses). DISEASE: Causes phycomycosis in man (RMVM 4, 882) and causes experimental phycomycosis in alloxan-diabetic rabbits (RMVM 7, 2628). It has also been reported from phycomycosis (stomach lesions) in a pig (Gitter & Austwick, 1959) but an isolate from this source proved to be R. rhizopodiformis (CMI Descript. 522). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: India, Nigeria, Pakistan, Malaysia (Sabah), Sierra Leone, South Africa, UK. TRANSMISSION: By air-borne sporangiospores.

Abstract A description is provided for Alternaria zinniae. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Ageratum, Aster, Bidens, Calendula, Callistephus, Chrysanthemum, Coreopsis, Cosmos, Dahlia, Gaillardia, Galinsoga, Gerbera, Helianthus, Notonia, Parthenium, Sphaeranthus indicus, Tagetes, Tithonia, Volutarella, Xanthium, Zinnia. Also recorded are a number of non-compositae hosts such as bean (50, 3295), rape (43, 1212b), Clarkia, Hibiscus esculentus (66. 4729), pawpaws (66. 4729) and seeds of tobacco (64, 1748) but these reports should be regarded with some doubt. Simmons (1982) also reports other hosts like Gentiana, Papaver and Reseda. DISEASE: Leaf spot of Zinnia. The fungus attacks the leaves, stems of its host and can cause damping-off of seedlings where both the root and the stems of the plant may be affected. In older plants the fungus attacks the older leaves and then spreads to the younger leaves, and when the attack is severe the spots may become confluent. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Africa: Egypt, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Libya, Malawi, Mauritius, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe. Asia: Brunei, China (Liaoning). India, Indonesia (Borneo), Korea, Nepal, Pakistan. Australasia & Oceania: Australia. Europe: Cyprus. Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, The Netherlands. Central & North America: Bermuda, Canada, Jamaica, USA (Hawaii, Illinois, South Dakota). TRANSMISSION: On seeds by wind dispersal of airborne conidia.

Abstract A description is provided for Rhizopus rhizopodiformis. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: From soil and bread, and pathogenic to man and warm blooded animals (causing mycoses). DISEASE: Has been isolated from a subcutaneous infection in a diabetic woman (RMVM 4, 1733); from phycomycosis in a pig (RMVM 8, 885, as R. cohnii); from horse (Costantin & Lucet, 1903, as R. equinus), this isolate being pathogenic to rabbits; and from domestic animals (RMVM 1, 215). It is reported as a cause of bovine mycotic abortion (Ballarini, 1955, as R. equinus) and has been isolated from bovine fetal lung membranes and digestive tract (Smith, 1920, as Mucor rhizopodiformis). Three isolates labelled R. microsporus in Herb. IMI proved to be R. rhizopodiformis, one from phycomycosis in man, S. Africa (RMVM 4, 882), one from lung of pullet, UK (Ainsworth & Austwick, 1955) and one from gastric infection in pig, UK (Gitter & Austwick, 1959). It is experimentally pathogenic to rats, causing phycomycotic pneumonitis (RMVM 9, 1572), to alloxan-diabetic rabbits (RMVM 7, 2628, as R. cohnii and R. chinensis) and to rhesus monkeys when they are treated with prednisolone after infection (RMVM 9, 1573). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Germany, Ghana, India, Italy, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Sudan, UK, USA. TRANSMISSION: By air-borne sporangiospores.
