“…An estimated annual loss of about 29.5%, amounting whopping figure of US$ 491.67 million has been reported from India alone (Garg et al, 2014 ). In India, a calculated loss of 10–54% has been reported in yield of the crop due to the anthracnose disease (Lakshmesha et al, 2005 ; Ramachandran and Rathnamma, 2006 ). Significant losses have been reported from other parts of the world as well, like a significant amount of 20–80% loss has been accounted from Vietnam (Don et al, 2007 ) and about 10% from Korea (Byung, 2007 ).…”

Indian cuisine is renowned and celebrated throughout the world for its spicy treat to the tongue. The flavor and aroma of the food generated due to the use of spices creates an indelible experience. Among the commonly utilized spices to stimulate the taste buds in Indian food, whole or powdered chilli constitutes an inevitable position. Besides being a vital ingredient of of Indian food, chilli occupy an important position as an economic commodity, a major share in Indian economy. Chilli also has uncountable benefits to human health. Fresh green chilli fruits contain more Vitamin C than found in citrus fruits, while red chilli fruits have more Vitamin A content than as found in carrots. The active component of the spice, Capsaicin possesses the antioxidant, anti-mutagenic, anti-carcinogenic and immunosuppressive activities having ability to inhibit bacterial growth and platelet aggregation. Though introduced by the Portuguese in the Seventeenth century, India has been one of the major producers and exporters of this crop. During 2010–2011, India was the leading exporter and producer of chilli in the world, but recently due to a decline in chilli production, it stands at third position in terms of its production. The decline in chilli production has been attributed to the diseases linked with crop like anthracnose or fruit rot causing the major share of crop loss. The disease causes severe damage to both mature fruits in the field as well as during their storage under favorable conditions, which amplifies the loss in yield and overall production of the crop. This review gives an account of the loss in production and yield procured in chili cultivation due to anthracnose disease in Indian sub-continent, with emphasis given to the sustainable management strategies against the conventionally recommended control for the disease. Also, the review highlights the various pathogenic species of Colletotrichum spp, the causal agent of the disease, associated with the host crop in the country. The information in the review will prove of immense importance for the groups targeting the problem, for giving a collective information on various aspects of the epidemiology and management of the disease.

“…Contrairement au Cylindrocarpon, l'identification de Colletotrichum sp sur les fruits des lignées est en accord avec les observations de Black (1993), Goldberg (1995) et Reckhaus (1997) qui ont montré que ce champignon est responsable des lésions aqueuses et déprimées sur les fruits. Lakshmesha et al (2005) ont précisé que Colletotrichum capsici constitue le principal agent pathogène responsable de l'Anthracnose des fruits du piment pouvant causer 25 à 30 % de pertes en post récolte. Par ailleurs, les parasites Phytophthora capsici et Cercospora capsici dont les symptômes ont été observés au champ n'ont pas pu être isolés au laboratoire.…”

and PM57/05A) and a local variety used as a local check (TL) through their assessment in Research Station for their cultivation Côte d'Ivoire. Methodology and results: 9 lines were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications in southern Côte d'Ivoire. Data were collected on agronomic parameters such as crop development, yield and its components and non-marketable fruit rates) and sanitary parameters (rate of plants wilted plants and fungal diseases). PM17/04A, PM57/05A, PM14/04A and PM16/04A lines recorded the best performance and highest yields with 8-12 t/ha. In addition, PM16/04A, PM57/05A and PM17/04A with 11.1, 9.7 and 6.9% mortality, were less affected by bacterial wilt. Conclusion and Application: The four pepper lines PM17/04A, PM14/04A, PM57/05A and PM16/04A, which presented the highest production potentials (good vegetative development and low sensitiveness to the bacterial wilt), could be assessed especially on farmers' fields in order to determine their capacity of adaptation to the local conditions of production for their final selection. A presence fungal disease on pepper varieties was also effective. Subsequent studies could be conducted to confirm Cylindrocarpon sp presence on pepper and to determine the fungal agent. Concerning Rhizoctonia solani, Colletotrichum sp and Fusarium sp fungal agents formally identified, some techniques could also be developed for their best control in the pepper cultivation in Côte d'Ivoire.

“…Losses are caused by this disease worldwide; it is reported that in Vietnam it causes 20-80% yield loss [15], 10% yield loss in Korea [16], 50% yield loss in Malaysia [17] and as high as 80% yield loss (during severe epidemics) in Thailand [18]. In India, a calculated loss of 10-54% has been reported in yield due to this disease [19,20], and this disease is reported throughout India but it found to be more common and aggressive form in Assam, Bihar, Andhra Pradesh and Uttar Pradesh [10]. The anthracnose pathogen has been intercepted in seed and it has been reported that there is occurrence of pathogen in seed samples, upto 5% infection index indicates its wide spread occurrence in India [21].…”

Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) is one of the most economically important vegetable crops in the world. Among different biotic constraints, anthracnose disease is the major limiting factor affecting yield and production of chilli crop. Different symptoms associated with disease are fruit rot, leaf spots, dieback on stem, seedling blight, or damping off. Many species of genus Colletotrichum are found associated with the disease worldwide. In India, primarily three important species, namely, Colletotrichum truncatum, C. acutatum, and C. gleosporoides, are responsible for the chilli anthracnose. Accurate identification of pathogen is needed for choosing the proper management strategy for controlling this disease. Both conventional and molecular methods are adapted along with different management strategies, recommended for this disease namely cultural, chemical, and other eco-friendly methods.
