Abstract:
The occurrence of strawberry powdery mildew is rising year by year, and it has become one of the main obstacles of strawberry production. The various species, taxonomic status, life history of strawberry powdery mildew pathogens, and molecular defense mechanisms of strawberry plants were summarized. The pathogenic mechanism of powdery mildew pathogens and the disease-resistant mechanism of strawberry plants were analyzed and discussed to provide ideas for effective control of the disease.
