Sclerotinia White Mold

Sclerotinia White Mold, also known as Sclerotinia Stem Rot, is a disease caused by a soil-borne fungus. At soybean flowering stages, the fungus can germinate from a special structure called sclerotium forming apothecia, a mushroom-like structure. Infection takes place when spores are projected into the air from apothecia and land on flowers where the fungus enters the plant.
