Abstract

Gladiolus (Gladiolus spp.) are in the Iridaceae family and are native to South Africa, and over 200 species have been described. Gladiolus have become a major crop in the florist industry. Growers of gladiolus plant their corms in the spring and harvest the flower spikes during the summer and early fall. Although the crop can be propagated sexually from seeds, most of the industry is based on movement of corms and cormels, which leads to many diseases being disseminated with the crop. Fusarium corm rot, Gladiolus rust, and Curvularia spot are the most limiting fungal diseases, whereas Cucumber mosaic virus and Bean yellow mosaic virus emerge as the more threatening viral diseases affecting gladiolus.
