Monographella nivalis

TaxID: 101483

Basic Information

Monographella nivalis

Fungus

Fusarium patch is a disease in turf grass settings also called pink snow mold or Microdochium patch. In many cool season grass species in North America, it is caused by the fungus Microdochium nivale. The white-pink mycelium on infected leaf blades is a distinguishing characteristic of the Microdochium nivale pathogen. Fusarium patch is considered economically important in the turf grass industry because of its tendency to cause significant injury to golf greens, thereby decreasing putting surface quality. Unlike other snow molds, such as gray snow mold, Microdochium nivale does not need snow cover to cause widespread infection.
