Overview Code created in: 2025-11-04
- EPPO Code: ASPEWE
- Preferred name: Aspergillus welwitschiae
- Authority: (Bresadola) Hennings
Bian et al. (2022) considered A. weltwitschiae as a synonym of A. niger. This has not been widely accepted since, and A. welwitschiae is widely used in relation to sisal bole rot. The taxonomic status of A. welwitschiae is still unclear according to Steewyk et al. (2024). Consequently, a distinct code was left in EPPO Global Database (2025-11).
