A total of 343 endophytic fungal isolates representing 60 taxa including 30 morphotypes were isolated from the different parts of the Chinese medicinal plant, Tripterygium wilfordii. In most cases fungal strains were only identified to genus because species identification was difficult in these speciose genera. Non-sporulating isolates were designated as Morphotypes 1 to 30. The endophytic asse...

We investigated the phylogenetic diversity of 144 Colletotrichum isolates associated with symptomatic and asymptomatic tissues of Camellia sinensis and other Camellia spp. from seven provinces in China (Fujian, Guizhou, Henan, Jiangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan, Zhejiang), and seven isolates obtained from other countries, including Indonesia, UK, and the USA. Based on multi-locus (ACT, ApMat, CAL, GAPDH,...

Abstract Anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum spp., is the main olive fruit disease. can severely infect with a negative impact on oil quality. However, relationship between visible infections of spp. and quality unclear influence latent unknown. This study considers as factors affecting oil. IAbsorbance in UV (K232 K270), free acidity, peroxide index were evaluated oils from symptomatic godet...

Endophytic fungi are inhabitants of plants, living most part of their lifecycle asymptomatically which mainly confer protection and ecological advantages to the host plant. In this present study, 48 endophytic fungi were isolated from the leaves of three medicinal plants and characterized based on ITS2 sequence - secondary structure analysis. ITS2 secondary structures were elucidated with minim...

Anthracnose symptoms were frequently observed on leaves, petioles, and stems of Chinese mallow grown in Namyangju, Korea, during a disease survey performed in November, 2007. The disease incidence was as high as 30% in the 12 greenhouses investigated. A total of 38 isolates of the Colletotrichum species were obtained from the anthracnose symptoms, and all the isolates were identified as Colleto...

Here, we present a draft genome sequence of isolate 15060 of Colletotrichum fructicola, a causal agent of mango anthracnose. The final assembly consists of 1,048 scaffolds totaling 56,493,063 bp (G+C content, 53.38%) and 15,180 predicted genes.

Anthracnose occurred frequently on leaf sheaths of Welsh onions grown in Gangwha island, Korea in November, 2007. The disease incidence was as high as 30% in five fields investigated. A total of 20 single spore isolates of Colletotrichum species were obtained from the affected plants, and all the isolates were identified as Colletotrichum circinans based on their morphological and cultural char...
