摘要： In recent years, the distribution and population of the Xinjiang wild apple, Malus sieversii, a protected vulnerable plant among endangered rare germplasm resources of China, have been decreasing. A field survey conducted during 2015-2017 detected decline and dieback of Xinjiang wild apple in the Yili region in Xinjiang Province. Two Phytophthora spp. were isolated from cankers and soil samples around symptomatic M. sieversii trees: One isolate was shown to cause infection, based on Koch's postulates. The isolate was identified as Phytophthora plurivora based on morphological features, physiological characteristics, ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 rDNA and cox1 sequence analyses. This is the first report of P. plurivora pathogenicity on Xinjiang wild apple in Xinjiang Province in China, constituting a new host for this pathogen. The potential of P. plurivora to cause damage in pure stands of Xinjiang wild apple in Xinjiang Province should be determined.
