abstract = {Kirramyces destructans is a devastating pathogen that causes leaf, bud and shoot blight diseases of Eucalyptus in the sub-tropics and tropics. During routine surveillance of eucalypt taxa trials in Northern Queensland symptoms resembling K. destructans were observed on E. grandis and E. grandis x E. camaldulensis. Phylogenetic and morphological studies revealed a new pathogen K. viscida, which is closely related to K. destructans. While E. grandis from the Copperload provenance recovered from disease, hybrids from South America were highly susceptible to K. viscida, and are consequently not suitable for planting in northern Queensland. Preliminary results from the present study suggest this fungus probably originates from Australia. The fact that K. viscida is closely related to K. destructans suggests the possible impact of disease to Australian eucalypt plantations could be devastating.}
