“…In Brazil, C. siamense has been previously reported on other hosts, such as Manihot carthaginesis and M. tomentosa (Oliveira, Silva, Diamantino, & Ferreira, ), Acca sellowiana (Fantinel et al., ), Fragria × ananassa (Capobiango, Pinho, Zambolim, Pereira, & Lopes, ). In addition, it has also been reported on Diospyros kaki in Korea (Chang, Hassan, Jeon, Shin, & Oh, ), M. domestica and Bauhinia forficata in Argentina (Fernadez et al. , Larran, Vera, Dal Bello, Franco, & Balatti, ) and Juglans regia in China (Wang et al., ).…”

Diversity of pathogenic and endophytic Colletotrichum isolates from Licania tomentosa in Brazil

et al. 2018

Licania tomentosa (Chrysobalanaceae), also known as “oiti,” is a forest tree mainly used for urban afforestation in Brazil. Although anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is the main disease that threatens this tree, the identification of the species was based on morphological characteristics only. Owing to the need to use the molecular approach to pinpoint the identity of this pathogen with precision, the aim of this study was to identify endophytic and pathogenic Colletotrichum isolates from L. tomentosa based on both morphological and molecular data. For prior identification, partial sequences of the GAPDH region were obtained of all the 35 isolates (10 endophytic and 25 pathogenic). After analysis, ten isolates, representative of each clade, were selected for multilocus phylogenetic analysis (ACT, CAL, CHS‐1, GAPDH, TUB2, SOD2 and ITS). In addition, a tree based on the ApMat region was obtained for comparison with the multilocus tree. Morphological characterization (colony growth, conidial size and appressoria shape) was also performed for each species. To prove pathogenicity, L. tomentosa leaves were inoculated on the adaxial surface by mycelial plugs and conidial suspension. All isolates obtained belong to the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides complex. The Apmat tree has the same topology as the multilocus tree, allowing for the discrimination of the different species of Colletotrichum on L. tomentosa. Endophytic isolates of C. fructicola, C. queenslandicum, and C. siamense were acquired whereas pathogenic isolates were identified as C. siamense and C. tropicale, although all species were pathogenic on the wounded leaves of L. tomentosa. This is the first worldwide report of this Colletotrichum species associated with L. tomentosa and the first recording of C. queenslandicum in Brazil.

“…On the basis of multigene phylogenetic analysis and morphological characteristics, the pathogen causing persimmon anthracnose has been renamed as C. horii, which also belongs to the C. gloeosporioides species complex [14]. To the best of our knowledge, most individual species in the C. gloeosporioides species complex, such as C. horii, C. fructicola, and C. siamense, may cause persimmon anthracnose [15,16,25] (Figure 1). Moreover, some different plants can be infected by the same anthrax species [14,26], C. acutatum from pepper can cause typical persimmon anthracnose symptoms, showing black spot disease in Korea [27,28].…”

“…However, in 2010, after examining the molecular and morphological characteristics of specimens from China, Japan, and New Zealand, Weir and Johnston renamed the persimmon pathogen as C. horii [14]. Additionally, the persimmon anthracnose can be caused by C. siamense, C. karstii, C. fructicola, C. nymphaeae, and C. melonis [15][16][17][18]. Persimmon anthracnose is a dangerous disease in China and in other nations across the world [15][16][17][18].…”

Persimmon (Diospyros kaki) anthracnose, predominantly caused by Colletotrichum horii, is a destructive disease of persimmon. Thus, the evaluation of resistance resources is imperative for persimmon breeding and resistant variety deployment. In this study, the isolate from persimmon branches was identified as C. horii by using molecular and morphological characteristics. A total of 142 varieties were tested for anthracnose disease response by inoculation with the conidial suspension of C. horii. A significant variability was observed among the studied accessions. Only two accessions, which had a hypersensitive reaction with a slight lesion at the infection site at 14 days post inoculation, were highly resistant to anthracnose. A total of 7 and 24 accessions exhibited resistant and susceptible responses, respectively, to anthracnose. A total of 109 varieties with the highest proportion (76.76%) of accessions showed high susceptibility to C. horii. A total of 43 persimmon main cultivars were selected for the re-evaluation of the resistance level by counting the natural disease incidence of branches and fruits that showed similar resistant response. Moreover, nine of highly resistant or resistant accessions possessed desirable agronomic characters, including high fruit weight and strong growth potential. These resistant accessions could be used in the breeding of anthracnose-resistant persimmon varieties.
