ABSTRACT  
Dipterocarpus dyeri is a typical plant of tropical evergreen moist forest at  
Southeast Vietnam. These plants have been planted popularly at parks and  
urban streets for the shade and it has been commonly materials for timber  
industry. Multiplication of Dipterocarpus dyeri at nurseries could face to some  
diseases, such as the withered disease cause serial death. Our study isolated  
three disease fungi strains from the root areas of the diseased Dipterocarpus  
dyeri planted Ma Da nursery, Dong Nai province. Result of 28s rDNA  
sequencing showed these fungi belong to Ophiostoma eucalypticagena,  
Aspergillus nidulans and Collectotrichum gloeosporioides. This result is base  
for conducting the following studies to control the withered disease on  
Dipterocarpus dyeri at the nursery.  
Keywords: Aspergillus nidulans, Collectrichum gloeosporioides, Dipterocarpus  
dyeri Ophiostoma eucalypticagena  
1. Introduction  
Dipterocarpus dyeri belongs to Dipterocarpaceae. It is typical plant in Southeast  
Vietnam. Its length reach 30 40 m. Wood of Dipterocarpaceae plants are arranged  
into group IV that is hard, heavy and commonly used for timber industry, such as house  
construction, boat- and furniture making. In 2019, wood and wood product exportation

of Vietnam was fifth in the world that required a lager number of timber materials (Nhu  
Huynh, 2020). Moreover, Dipterocarpus dyeri is commonly planted in the parks and  
urban streets for the shade. For the development of urbanize at Southeast Vietnam, the  
need of urban plant is increase more and more. The immature Dipterocarpus dyeri  
supply mainly comes from the nursery. The seedling grows slowly and affected by the  
light. In Vietnam, many studys concentrate on physiological- , ecological- and forestal  
characteristics of Dipterocarpus dyeri (Le Van Long et al, 2017). However, fungal  
diseases on Dipterocarpus dyeri in the nursery stage have been still interested.  
Moreover, the change of climate and the misuse of plant protection products led the  
disease in crop plant more and more. Typically, the withered disease on Dipterocarpus  
dyeri appeared at some nursery garden in Dong Nai province. The disease caused  
damage on the seedlings seriously at the weak light condition. The symptom of dry  
withered appeared from young leave to mature leave and plants dead in the sort time.  
Using some copper fungicide was not also effective. In this study, we isolated and  
determined the fugal strains from the vessel system of the diseased Dipterocarpus dyeri  
planted in the nursery garden. The result of study is base for setting up the solutions to  
control the fungal disease on Dipterocarpus dyeri.  
2. Materials and methods  
2.1. Materials  
The specimen of diseased Dipterocarpus dyeri: collected from the nursery of Ma Da  
forest management board, Vinh Cuu district, Dong Nai province.  
2.2. Methods  
Isolation the diseased fungi: The diseased Dipterocarpus dyeri were recorded  
symptoms on roots and leaves in the nursery. The specimens were maintained in the  
sterile plastic bags and then isolated fungi within 24 hours.  
The diseased roots were cleanly washed soid on its surface; drying naturally; cutting  
perpendicularly the root and taking photographs of system vessels at the 4X  
magnification.  
Sharpening outside peel of the root by the sterile knife; cutting thin slice of root  
perpendicularly and transfer to the WA medium (agar 20 g; adding distilled water to  
1000 mL). Incubating these cultured petris at 30oC until the hyphae spread out from the  
root slice; transferring the agar pieces containing the hyphae to the PGA medium  
(potato 200 g, boiling within 30 minutes and extracting potato solution; adding 50 g  
glucose and 20 g agar; adding distilled water to 1000 mL).

Incubating these cultured petris at 30oC. Daily, monitoring the growth of the mycelium,  
characteristics and colour of the hyphae fungi; micro characteristics of hyphae, spores  
and conidium at the 40X magnification.  
Classifying the diseased fungi by morphology: Characteristics of form fungi, colour of  
mycelium, form of spore and conidium of isolated fungi were compared with the  
previous domestic- and foreign results.  
Classifying the diseased fungi by sequencing: Extracting DNA of fungi; conducting  
PCR with specific a pair of primer for 28s region; sequencing and comparing with  
NCBI GenBank datadase to classify the disease fungi.  
3. Results  
3.1. Isolating the diseased fungi  
Recording symptoms of plants at the plantation and micro-characteristics of root at the lab  
(figure 1); washing cleanly soil outside of the disease root of Dipterocarpus dyeri;  
sharpening the peel of root; cutting thin layers of root and then putting them on WA  
medium. Fungi were continuously isolated on PGA medium. The results were showed in  
figure 2.

A) Dipterocarpus dyeri grows in the screenhouse with the light cover level of 50%; B) leaves of  
Dipterocarpus dyeri were green withered and dead gradually; C) vascular bundles were dark brown  
At the plantation, the light cover level highly affected the diseased ratio of  
Dipterocarpus dyeri. The diseased ratio of plant was 60% in the screenhouse that  
covered the light intensity of 50%, while the amount of dead plants reached nearly  
100% at the light cover level of 75%. The weak light intensity could have increase the  
growth and spread of diseased fungi species. The leaves withered and dried gradually.

The symptoms appeared at the young leaves and then gradually spreaded to the mature  
leaves. The Dipterocarpus dyeri completely died within 5 - 7 days. The picture of  
perpendicular slice of the diseased tap-root showed whole vascular bundles was brown  
and dry. It could be the hyphae of harmful fungi infiltrated and grown in the vascular  
vigorously, whereas vascular picture of healthy plants was pink-white.

From the thin slice of diseased roots, initial results showed that appeared 06 fungi  
strains that named from R1 to R6 in turn. These strains have differences in form of  
spores, colour of hyphae, the time of growth. After transferred culture steps and  
comparing mycelium and spores, these fungi strains arranged into 3 groups. Group 1  
consited of 3 strains R1, R2 and R3. The mycelium of these strains was white, grown  
close medium surface. The spores were oval that clustered at the middle or end of  
hyphae. Group 2 consisted of R4 strain and R5 strain. Their hyphae were bright yellow

or orange-yellow. Spores were spherical shape that formed from a bottle shaped conidia  
and attached together into chain. Following the taxonomy described by Nguyen Huy  
Van, R4 and R5 strain could belong to Aspergillus genus (Nguyen Huy Van and Bui  
Xuan Dong, 2000) whereas, the hyphae of R6 strain were light grey. Its spores were  
oval grey shape that formed separately at the end of mycelium. R2, R4 and R6 strain  
were continuously classified by sequencing.

4. Discussion  
The Dipterocarpaceae is typical plants in forest at SouthEast Vietnam. They were  
popularly planted in parks or urban areas for shade. Timber of Dipterocarpaceae was  
also important material for woodwork. For increasing demand, Dipterocarpus dyeri was  
planted more and more. A high density of plants and fluctuant weather has appeared  
many disease on plants that has not been reported ever, typically the withered disease on  
Dipterocarpus dyeri plants that have just appeared recently at some plantations in Dong  
Nai province. Following the initial recognition at the plantation, the immature plants  
often withered seriously at the lack of light condition. This showed that the immature  
192

plants could be attacked by diseased fungi easily at high level of light cover in natural  
forest and reduced regenerative ability of Dipterocarpus dyeri population in nature. The  
picture of thin slice root showed its vessel was brown that was a sign of microbial  
infiltration. On WA medium, it appeared many hyphae from the diseased root specimen  
without bacteria.  
Sequencing these fungi showed they belonged to Ophiostoma eucalyptigena,  
Aspergillus nidulans and Collectotrichum gloeospoioides that identity level got 100%,  
99% and 99%, respectively. Our result was relative resemble the others. Ophiostoma  
eucalyptigena was refered by Pedro in the previous result. They caused the diseased  
wither on large trees in Australia (Pedro, 2015). Collectotrichum gloeospoioides strain  
was recognized to be cause of the anthracnose disease on many fruit trees such as  
mango, papaya, grape, avocado, chili pepperSymptoms of the anthracnose disease  
often commonly appear on ripe fruits and leaves (Erika et al, 2009 ; Kim et al, 2004 ;  
Hyde et al, 2009). However, it has not reported that Collectotrichum gloeospoioides was  
cause of wither disease on plants. Whereas Aspergillus nidulans has not recognized as  
main cause of the disease on plants yet. Aspergillus genus was considered to be  
saprophytic fungi. This strain could have infiltrated into the vascular when the plants  
were injured. Classification of this fungi could provide more informations to control the  
dieases on Diprterocarpus dyeri.  
5. Conclution  
On the wilted Dipterocarpus dyeri at the nursery, the study initially isolated 03 disease  
fungi strains. Observing morphologic characteristic in conjunction with comparing gene  
sequence showed that these fungi belonged to Ophiostoma eucalyptigena, Aspergillus  
nidulans and Collectotrichum gloeospoioides with identity level of 100%, 99% and  
99%, respectively. The results were a base for setting up solutions to control the wilt on  
Dipterocarpus dyeri at the nursery.
