Commercial production of adzuki bean [Vigna angularis (Willd.) Ohwi & Ohashi] began in the early 1900s on the northern island of Hokkaido, Japan. The cultivation area, comprising more than 60,000 ha in 1960, has been maintained at about 20,000 ha even in recent years, indicating that adzuki bean has been one of the most important upland crops in Hokkaido. Diseases caused by soilborne pathogens, as well as other microbial pathogens and insect pests, have been factors that limit the production of adzuki bean. The most important diseases are brown stem rot, Phytophthora stem rot, and Fusarium wilt caused by Cadophora gregata (formerly Cephalosporium gregatum or Phialophora gregata), Phytophthora vignae, and Fusarium oxysporum, respectively. Crop rotation as a cultural control method can effectively prevent these diseases, but may not dramatically reduce these diseases on adzuki bean because of its short intervals of cultivation. Therefore, growers in Hokkaido have been hoping...
