| 4824012 | Cylindrocladium root diseases | Cylindrocladium spp. | Damaged seedlings infected with C. floridanum. Lack of aeration as foliage mats (or lays down) down causes disease to spread across tray. |
| 4824013 | Cylindrocladium root diseases | Cylindrocladium spp. | Damaged seedlings infected with C. floridanum. Lack of aeration as foliage mats (or lays down) down causes disease to spread across tray. |
