Alternaria padwickii is a plant pathogen that attacks rice. It is associated with the disease stackburn, otherwise known as alternaria leaf spot.

Rice grown in northeast Argentina commonly suffers from A. padwickii[1] and the particular strains found there are highly resistant to carboxin and moderately resistant to a few other fungicides[1]
