INDEX OF PLANT DISEASES IN SOUTH CAROLINA Third Edition James H. Blake, Ed.D. State Coordinator SC Master Gardener Program SC Master Naturalist Program Meg Williamson, M.S. Plant Disease Diagnostician PREFACE The first edition of the Index of Plant Diseases in South Carolina published in 2008 listed the plant diseases occurring on cultivated and native plants in SC as reported from plant samples submitted to the Clemson University Plant Problem Clinic between 1972 and 2006, with the addition of disease reports from Extension and research plant pathologists across SC. The second edition included data from 2007 through 2011, adding 85 new host plants and 634 new diagnoses. This third edition includes disease reports from 2012 through 2014, adding 54 new host plants and 350 new diagnoses. The Index now contains 1,041 genera and species of plants from 124 plant families with 1,573 common names. There are 5,727 disease reports with 4,712 diseases being caused by fungi, 442 diseases caused by nematodes, 380 diseases caused by bacteria, 247 diseases caused by viruses, 20 diseases caused by algae, 3 diseases caused lichens, 1 disease caused by a phytoplasma, and 1 disease caused by a viroid. No attempt has been made to update the binomial nomenclature of either plants or plant pathogens listed in this publication. This index lists the plants and their pathogens as taken from the sample submission forms and the reports generated by the various Clemson University plant pathologists. This index does not imply that it is a complete list of the diseases of plants in South Carolina. New plants as well as new plant pathogens are continually being introduced into the United States. The Index is arranged so that plant families are listed alphabetically. Within each plant family is an alphabetical listing of plant species. Plant pathogens found on each plant are then listed under pathogen categories – algae, bacteria, fungi, nematodes, phytoplasmas, viroids and viruses. New to this edition is a series of indices to the common and Latin binomials (genus species) of plants, plant family names, common names of plant diseases, and Latin binomials of the disease-causing organisms (algae, bacteria, fungi, nematodes, phytoplasmas, viruses and viroids) found in this publication. This publication will serve as a useful reference for anyone interested in plant diseases, including county Extension agents, diagnosticians, students, Master Gardeners, Master Naturalists, and Department of Plant Industry personnel.
