Abstract
In the spring of 1991 a severe injury of Diachea leucopodia (Bull.) Ro st. slime mould was observed in a strawberry plantation in Debrecen (E astern Hungary).Although this slime mould is considered a saprophytic organism, its harmful effect is that it covers different parts of cult ivated plants incidentally killing the whole plant or decreasing the m arketable value of fruits. The quantity of damaged fruits was about 10 -15 percent in 1991. The authors survey the symptoms of disease, the m orphological features of slime mould, its life cycle and opportunities for in vitro growing.
