DISEASE NOTES OR NEW RECORDS: Phomopsis spp. associated with die-back of saffron thistle (Carthamuslanatus)

Abstract
Phomopsis spp. were isolated from plant and seed material of saffron thistle collected from several areas in New South Wales. Pathogenicity of these isolates was confirmed using a wound inoculation technique in the glasshouse. This is the first published record of Phomopsis causing a disease of saffron thistle in Australia.
