Abstract Background Pepper is a popular ingredient in many Chinese households; however, anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum spp. has greatly decreased pepper production. The genus Bacillus widely known for its important role the development and protection of plants from phytopathogenic fungi. Results Fifty-eight endophytic strains were isolated leaves tested antifungal activity this study. Spe...

Pepper (Capsicum spp.) is an important vegetable crop worldwide with high economic and nutritional value. The Capsicum genus comprises more than 30 species, of which C. annuum, chinense, baccatum, frutescens, pubescens are the five domesticated ones. Anthracnose fruit rot, caused by Colletotrichum spp., one most destructive fungal diseases pepper. In this review, we compiled up-to-date informat...

Tamarillo fruits showing anthracnose disease were observed in Brazil. Two single-spore isolates obtained and identified as Colletotrichum karsti using DNA sequencing morphological characteristics. The pathogenicity of the was confirmed by inoculating healthy tamarillo fruits. To best our knowledge, this is first report C. causing fruit on

Phosphonate fungicides are used by golf course managers to control Pythium diseases, suppress anthracnose basal rot, alleviate summer stress, and improve turf quality. In many areas of the northeast, phosphonate products are applied at regular intervals throughout the summer as part of a fairway and putting green management program. Currently, over a dozen phosphonate fungicides and fertilizers...

The effect of antifungal compound from Bacillus subtilis strain LB5 was tested against conidial germination of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and Pestalotiopsis eugeniae, causal agent of anthracnose and fruit rot of wax apple, respectively. Observation under scanning electron microscope and light compound microscope revealed that conidial germination was completely inhibited when treated with c...

In addition to its economic impact, Colletotrichum acutatum sensu lato is an interesting model for molecular investigations due to the diversity of host-determined specialization and reproductive lifestyles within the species complex. The pathogen Colletotrichum fioriniae forms part of this species complex and causes anthracnose in a wide range of crops and wild plants worldwide. Some members o...
