One hundred and twenty-three isolates of Botrytis cinerea were collected from
7 different areas in the Republic of Macedonia, where tomato is mostly grown
in greenhouses and high tunnels. Based on the mycelial formation, intensity
of sporulation and sclerotial production, 9 different phenotypes were
detected: 4 mycelial and 5 sclerotial. One sclerotial morphological type has
not been previously reported. The presence or absence of two transposable
elements, boty and flipper, was detected by PCR. Out of 123 isolates, 20 had
two transposable elements, boty and flipper (transposa genotype), 48 had
neither of these elements (vacuma genotype) and 55 had only the flipper
element (flipper genotype). Isolates that contain only boty element were not
detected. No relationship between the phenotypes, origin of isolates and the
presence/absence of transposable elements, boty and flipper, was found.
