Phytophthora fragariae Hickman 1940
Smith (1951 a) isolated Phytophthora fragariae from roots of strawberry plants showing red core symptoms in the Auckland district. He found it associated with a similar root rot condition in strawberry plants in Wellington and Canterbury. For control of the disease he recommended the planting of disease free runners in clean ground and suggested the introduction from overseas of resistant strawberry varieties. As the fungus is specific to strawberries it was probably introduced into New Zealand with propagating material of the host.
