Occurrence of strobilurin-resistant strains of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Glomerella cingulata), the causal fungus of strawberry anthracnose.

comparing virulence of colletotrichum gloeosporioides isolates the causal agent of citrus anthracnose in mazandaran province, iran

in recent years, anthracnose disease of citrus has caused and contiunes to cause heavy losses to some citrus commercial tree varieties in mazandaran province. this disease is deeply spread out in the citrus orchards of the province. in order to isolate and identify the causal agent or agents of the disease, random sampling was done from infected trees during 2004-2005. in lab, samples were cult...

First Report of Colletotrichum fructicola as the causal agent of Anthracnose on Common Bean and Cowpea

Strawberry Anthracnose: Histopathology of Colletotrichum acutatum and C. fragariae.

ABSTRACT Ontogeny of the invasion process by Colletotrichum acutatum and C. fragariae was studied on petioles and stolons of the strawberry cultivar Chandler using light and electron microscopy. The invasion of host tissue by each fungal species was similar; however, each invasion event occurred more rapidly with C. fragariae than with C. acutatum. Following cuticular penetration via an appress...

Occurrence of Anthracnose on Highbush Blueberry Caused by Colletotrichum Species in Korea

A total of 82 isolates of Colletotrichum species were obtained from anthracnose symptoms of highbush blueberry trees grown in the Gochang area of Korea during a disease survey in 2008. Out of the isolates, 75 were identified as Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and the others as C. acutatum based on their morphological and cultural characteristics. Twenty six of C. gloeosporioides isolates produce...

Thermal stability engineering of Glomerella cingulata cutinase.

Cutinase has been ascertained as a biocatalyst for biotechnological and industrial bioprocesses. The Glomerella cingulata cutinase was genetically modified to enhance its enzymatic performance to fulfill industrial requirements. Two sites were selected for mutagenesis with the aim of altering the surface electrostatics as well as removing a potentially deamidation-prone asparagine residue. The ...
