Abstract

Fusarium wilt disease of the passion vine (Passiflora edulis Sims.) produces severe economic losses in plantations in south-eastern Queensland. The symptoms of natural and artificial infection of passion vine wilt with a species of Fusarium are described. It is suggested that a practical solution to the problem may be secured by either selecting resistant individuals of P. edulis or my top-grafting P. edulis to s root system of a suitable resistant species of Passiflora.
