Diaporthe phaseolorum var. sojae is a plant pathogen infecting soybean [1] and peanut. Diaporthe phaseolorum var. sojae is the perfect form of the causal pathogen of pod and stem blight of soybean. [2] It is a fungal ascomycete that commonly infects seeds, pods, stems, and petioles. This pathogen is also found in its imperfect state, Phomopsis ...
Pod and stem blight attack soybean plants during very wet seasons. It is caused by a number of species of the fungal genera Diaporthe and Phomopsis. They cause small black fruiting bodies to form on plant stems and pods. [149] These fungi cause moldy, cracked, and shriveled seeds which in return produce low-quality oil and meal. [148]

Cercospora kikuchii is a fungal plant pathogen that affects soybeans. [1] It results in both the Cercospora leaf blight and purple seed stain diseases on soybean and is found almost worldwide. C. kikuchii produces the toxin cercosporin, as do a number of other Cercospora species.
