Anthracnose is one of the most common and important foliage diseases of shade trees in Iowa. Symptoms of anthracnose are often referred to as “leaf blights” or “leaf spots” and are most serious on sycamore, ash, maple, white and bur oak, and walnut. Linden, hickory, elm, red and black oak, and other deciduous trees also are susceptible, although anthracnose is less common and damaging on these ...

Control and favourable weather for anthracnose of papaya Anthracnose and stem-end rot (SER) are the main post harvest diseases of papaya (Carica papaya) in Brazil. The effectiveness of 11 treatments (mg.l-1 a.i.) on the their control was evaluated: 1chlorothalonil WP (1500); 2-chlorothalonil SC (2000); 3-chlorothalonil + copper oxychloride WP (875 + 1050); 4-thiofanate-metil + chlorothalonil WP...

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...

Anthracnose symptoms often occurred on fruits of Asian pear trees grown in Anseong, Naju, Seonghwan and Pyeongtaek in Korea during the harvesting period from 2000 to 2005. A total of 28 isolates of Colletotrichum sp. were obtained from the anthracnose symptoms. All the isolates were identified as Colletotrichum acutatum based on their morphological and cultural characteristics. Four isolates of...

Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is one of the most important grain legume crops in the world. The beans grown in north-western Himalayas possess huge diversity for seed color, shape and size but are mostly susceptible to Anthracnose disease caused by seed born fungus Colletotrichum lindemuthianum. Dozens of QTLs/genes have been already identified for this disease in common bean world-wide. ...

Anthracnose, caused by the Colletotrichum species of fungi, is one of the most serious diseases affecting jute in China. The disease causes chlorotic regions with black brown sunken necrotic pits on the surfaces of stems. In late stages of disease, plants undergo defoliation, dieback and blight, which make anthracnose a major threat to jute fiber production and quality in China. In this study, ...

Downy mildew (Plasmopara viticola) and anthracnose (Sphaceloma ampelinum) are two of the major diseases of most grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) cultivars grown in Thailand. Therefore, breeding grapevines for improved downy mildew and anthracnose resistance is crucial. Factorial crosses were made between three downy mildew and/or anthracnose resistant lines ('NY88.0517.01', 'NY65.0550.04', and 'NY...

John C. Inguagiato, Ph.D. James A. Murphy, Ph.D. Bruce B. Clarke, Ph.D. Anthracnose, caused by the fungus Colletotrichum cereale (2), has become a common disease of annual bluegrass (Poa annua) and, to a lesser extent, creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) greens throughout the world (9). The disease may occur as a basal rot of necrotic, watersoaked crown tissue at any time of the year or a...

Chilli fruit is highly susceptible to anthracnose infection at the stage of harvest maturity, due to which the fruit yield in the leading commercial variety Byadgi is severely affected. Field studies on screening of several varieties for resistance to anthracnose have shown that a variety of chilli AR-4/99K is resistant to anthracnose infection. In many crops, resistance to fungal attack has be...
