The first description was by Pammel in a Texas Bulletin; a later one was by Shear. The fungus destroys the smaller rootlets, cortex of older roots and invades the vascular system and medullary rays, resulting in wilt and death. It may be seen as dirty yellowish strands or as a thin weft superficially. Sclerotia-like Ijodies appear on the roots often at.
