Pathogenicity and aggressiveness of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides isolates in ornamental pepper

Abstract: Anthracnose, a disease caused by fungi of the Colletotrichum genus, affects many crops, including ornamental plants. This study aimed at evaluating the pathogenicity and aggressiveness of the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Penz. (Sacc.) isolates Cg1 (papaya), Cg2 (guava) and Cg3 (mango) in the ornamental pepper varieties Stromboli, Etna and Pirâmide, during two different periods (July/August and November/December 2013). The fungi pathogenicity and the severity of plant symptoms were assessed using a grading sc… Show more

“…However, anthracnose caused by species of the genus Colletotrichum is a common and destructive disease in diverse agricultural crops and forest species. Its global occurrence causes significant losses in tropical and subtropical regions (Araújo et al, 2016). Although the genus contains species with different lifestyles, plants can be infected during any stage of development and symptoms appear after colonization of fungi, which is characterized by necrotic lesions in leaves (Villa-Rivera et al, 2017).…”

“…We evaluated the in vitro antifungal activities of compounds 1, 2, and 3 towards three plant pathogens: C. gloeosporioides, which is a major cause of anthracnose in many fruits and vegetables, such as mango (Mangifera indica L., Anacardiaceae) [22], litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn., Sapindaceae) [23], chili pepper (Capsicum spp., Solanaceae), and scarlet eggplant (Solanum aethiopicum L., Solanaceae) [24]; C. musae, which has been reported to cause anthracnose, blossom end rot, crown rot, and tip rot in bananas (Musa spp., Musaceae) [25]; and F. oxysporum, which is the causal agent of Fusarium wilt and fruit rot in tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L., Solanaceae) [26]. All three compounds exhibited broadspectrum antifungal activities against the tested fungi (▶ Table 3).…”
