Wilted soybean plants (Glycine max (L) Merr.) were observed in May and June 2014, in commercial fields at Osijek and Vinkovci, Slavonia County, respectively. Affected plants were at the V3 crop developmental stage (Licht 2014) at Osijek and R1 stage at Vinkovci. Disease was observed on approximately 20% of the plants in the examined fields. Symptoms of the disease observed were external and internal browning at the base of stems, interveinal chlorosis of leaves, wilting, and death of shoots. Roots appeared healthy. Isolations of the pathogen were made from the discolored stem tissues that were previously sterilized with 1% sodium hypochlorite and then placed on potato dextrose agar (PDA). Colonies grown on PDA were carmine red with white margins and red pigments were produced in agar. The isolated fungi were transferred to carnation leaf agar (CLA) to induce sporulation. Macroconidia were unequally curved, 4- to 6-septate with foot-shaped basal cell and slender apical cell. Morphology of colonies and coni...
