In order to clarify the pathogenicity and the potential risk of major corn pathogens to soybean root rot in corn-soybean inter planting, this study artificially inoculated non-co-occurring pathogens onto soybean roots and observed the symptoms in pots, and identified the infection grades of pathogens on soybean root rot. The results showed that Curvularia lunata causing corn curvularia leaf spot, Bipolaris maydis causing southern corn leaf blight, and Exserohilum turcicum causing northern corn leaf blight were non-co-occurring pathogens and could cause soybean root rot. Isolation and identification confirmed that the isolated strains were identical to the inoculated pathogens; C.lunata could cause soybean root rot up to Grade 5, B.maydis and E.turcicum could lead to soybean root rot up to Grade 3. The above results indicated that all three pathogens were causal agents of soybean root rot, and there was a potential risk of causing soybean root rot.
