Botrytis allii Munn 1917

Brier et al. (1959) recorded this fungus as causing a bulb rot of onions especially it storage. In wet seasons it is of considerable economic importance especially in the Pukekohe area near Auckland. Wilson (1966) recommended that all infected bulbs from the preceding year's crop should be destroyed. As there is evidence that the fungus is seed borne, seed should be dusted before planting. Lawes (1967) stressed the importance of storing only dry, well cured bulbs; he also noted that the store should be well ventilated.
