Molecular characterization of slow-growing orange and key lime anthracnose strains of Colletotrichum from citrus as C. acutatum
1996-03-01
Abstract excerpt
Three forms of Colletotrichum are recognized on citrus: the fast-growing gray (FGG) form, a common saprophyte and postharvest pathogen that is morphologically distinct from the other two; the slow-growing orange (SGO) form, the causal agent of postbloom fruit drop; and the Key lime anthracnose (KLA) form, the cause of lime anthracnose. Pathogenicity tests confirmed that the SGO isolates infected sweet orange flowe...
