abstract = {A new crown and root rot disease of landscape plantings of the malvaceous ornamental common rose mallow (Hibiscus moscheutos) was first detected in Washington State in 2012. The main objectives of this study were to identify the causal agent using multilocus molecular phylogenetics and to complete Koch?s postulates. Maximum likelihood and maximum parsimony phylogenetic analyses of portions of translation elongation factor 1-α (TEF1), DNA-directed RNA polymerase II largest (RPB1) and second largest subunit (RPB2) indicated that the Hibiscus pathogen was a novel, undescribed Fusarium species nested within the F. buharicum species complex (FBSC). Results of the pathogenicity experiments demonstrated that the novel Fusarium sp. could induce vascular wilt, root and crown rot symptoms on H. moscheutos cultivar Luna Rose.}
