Abstract
Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) and Sorghum bicolar x Sorghum sudanense hybrid cultivars are important fodder plants grown as rotational crop in Turkey. In July of 2009, leaf blotches symtoms were observed on field grown sorghum plants in Sakarya province, Turkey. The causal organism of these leaf blotches was identified for the first time in Turkey as Bipolaris spicifera (teleomorph: Cochliobolus spicifer Nelson). Pathogenicity of B. spicifera was tested on sorghum and six gramineous plants. As a result of pathogenicity tests the isolate was found pathogen on sorghum as well as, maize, barley, oat and rice.
