The most distinctive characteristics of these two Fusaria of gladiolus are the effects on the ; Other workers have been inconsistent in their use of names for the causal agents of the different forms of the disease. Mc- Clellan (1945) used the name lusaritini orthoceras App. & Wr. var. gladioli Mc- Culloch for the vascular Fusarium of glad- iolus. In a later article the same writer (1947) listed F. oxysporum f. gladioli Sny. & Hans, as the causal agent for yel- lows and rot. He described the other forms of the disease but did not name the causal agents. McCIellan &: Stuart (1947) used the name /•'. oxysporum f. gladioli (Massey) Sny. & Hans, for the causal agent of gladiolus "vellows, or corm ; McCIellan (1948)'used both names. /•'. oxysporum var. gladioli Massey and F. or- thoceras var. gladioli McCulloch. Nelson (1948) listed F. orthoceras WoU. var. gladioli McCull. as the cause of yellows,.
