Abstract：
Myxomycetes (plasmodial slime molds) are eukaryotic protist predators that are associated with wood, leaf litter, and soil in forests, where they feed on bacteria, protozoans, and (to a more limited extent) fungi. The health of crop plants is essential because they represent a primary food source for humans. However, when myxomycetes produce numerous fruiting bodies on the stems and leaves of crop plants, which is herein referred to as a myxomycete colonization, this has the potential of interfering with plant photosynthesis, transpiration and respiration by blocking out light and covering stomata. Myxomycetes are not pathogens, but their occurrence on plants can be mistakenly interpreted as some type of infection. However, this phenomenon has been largely ignored. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the taxonomic and economic diversity of the organisms involved in myxomycete colonization. In addition, the various types of myxomycete colonization reported in the literature are described and discussed, a number of images provided, and cultural and chemical prevention and control measures are summarized. The latter should be of significant relevance for local production of crops and plant protective stations. While myxomycetes are not pathogens of crop plants, some species can seriously impact commercially grown mushrooms. Reports of myxomycetes affecting mushrooms are also described in this paper.
摘要：
粘菌（疟原虫粘液霉菌）是与木材有关的真核生物捕食者，落叶,和森林里的土壤，它们以细菌为食，原生动物,和（在更有限的程度上）真菌。作物植物的健康至关重要，因为它们是人类的主要食物来源。然而,当粘液菌在作物植物的茎和叶上产生大量子实体时，这在本文中被称为粘菌定植，这可能会干扰植物的光合作用，通过遮挡光线和覆盖气孔来蒸腾作用和呼吸。粘菌不是病原体,但是它们在植物上的发生可能被错误地解释为某种类型的感染。然而,这种现象在很大程度上被忽视了。本文对与粘菌定植有关的生物的分类学和经济多样性进行了全面概述。此外,描述和讨论了文献中报道的各种类型的粘菌定植，提供了许多图像，并总结了文化和化学防治措施。后者应该对当地的作物生产和植物保护站具有重要意义。虽然粘液菌不是农作物的病原体，一些物种会严重影响商业种植的蘑菇。本文还描述了影响蘑菇的粘液菌的报道。
