Özet:

 Lavender Lavandula spp. is an economically significant aromatic plant widely cultivated in the Lakes Region of Turkey. This study aimed to determine fungal diseases affecting lavender cultivation in the region and to assess disease severity. A total of 277 fungal isolates were obtained from 98 symptomatic lavender plants collected from Isparta, Afyonkarahisar, Denizli, and Burdur. The most frequently isolated fungal genera were Fusarium 5.9217.38, Epicoccum 3.787.03, Alternaria 3.005.40, Rhizoctonia 0.801.20, and Macrophomina 2.30. Pathogenicity tests on Lavandula x intermedia Super A seedlings revealed that Rhizoctonia spp. 80.0, Epicoccum spp. 77.783.3, and Fusarium spp. 66.688.8 caused varying levels of disease severity. Since the Lakes Region accounts for 42 of Turkeys total lavender production, the findings of this study provide data that can reflect fungal pathogens and disease severity in lavender cultivation nationwide.

 Lavanta Lavandula spp., Türkiyede özellikle Göller Bölgesinde yaygın olarak yetiştirilen ekonomik değeri yüksek aromatik bir bitkidir. Bu çalışma, bölgede lavanta tarımını etkileyen fungal hastalıkların belirlenmesi ve hastalık şiddetlerinin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma kapsamında, Isparta, Afyonkarahisar, Denizli ve Burdur illerinde hastalık belirtisi gösteren 98 lavanta bitkisinden toplam 277 fungal izolat elde edilmiştir. En sık izole edilen cinsler Fusarium 5.9217.38, Epicoccum 3.787.03, Alternaria 3.005.40, Rhizoctonia 0.801.20 ve Macrophomina 2.30 olarak belirlenmiştir. Lavandula x intermedia Super A fideleri üzerinde yapılan patojenite testlerinde, Rhizoctonia spp. 80.0, Epicoccum spp. 77.783.3 ve Fusarium spp. 66.688.8 farklı seviyelerde hastalık şiddeti göstermiştir. Göller Bölgesi, Türkiyedeki toplam lavanta üretiminin 42sini oluşturduğundan, bu çalışmada elde edilen bulgular lavanta tarımında görülen fungal patojenler ve hastalık şiddetleri açısından ülke geneline yansıyabilecek veriler sunmaktadır.
