Abstract excerpt
The diversity and host specificity were studied of a collection of Colletotrichum strains derived from endophytic colonies in leaves of 12 tree species in the Iwokrama Forest Reserve, Guyana. Analysis included ISSR-PCR and RAPD molecular fingerprinting techniques, rDNA ITS sequencing and morphological and cultural characterization. Most strains belonged to one of two species, C. gloeosporioides and a further...
