Trichothecene production and pathogenicity of Fusarium tumidum, a candidate bioherbicide for gorse and broom in New Zealand.

The relationship between trichothecene production and pathogenicity was investigated for 29 isolated of Fasarium tumidum, a potential bioherbicide for gorse (Ulex europaeus) and broom (Cytisus scoparius) in New Zealand. All isolates originally derived from broom produced high levels of T-2 tetraol derivtives when grown on ground, compared with isolated from gorse. Low amounts of scirpentriol derivatives were also produced by both groups of isolates. No nivalenol and DON derivatives were detected in any of the culture extracts. Two isolates offer prospects for the development of a safe bioherbicide that could target two major weeds in New Zealand, as trichothecenes were not detected from them at the higher concentrations.
