Abstract: 【OBJECTIVE】To investigate the occurrence and damage of cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata Linn.) wilt disease during 2002—2006 in the field located in Yanqing county of Beijing, in order to assist the follow-up research and control practice of the disease in near future. 【METHOD】The literatures tracing, the field investigation, and data analysis were used in this paper. 【RESULTS】The results showed that cabbage wilt disease developed with high speed in Yangqing cabbage production in the past five years. The disease areas were more than 13.3 hectare in two villages 2002, and expanded to 86.7 hectare in 25 villages 2006. It suggested the disease area increased 6.5 times. The yield losses were more that thirty percent and even without harvests. There is significant relationship between disease occurrence and damage with the field soil, climate and the cabbage resistance to disease. Up to now, there is not effective measure to control the disease. It is urgent to clarify the species of pathogen, the source of primarily infection and the way of disease transmission.【CONCLUSION】 For disease integrated management, it is the most important and the key point to detect cabbage seed health, to try fungicide seed treatment, as well as to screen chemicals for soil sterilization.
