First Report of Anthracnose on Chili Pepper Caused by Colletotrichum sojae in Hebei Province, China

Abstract: China is the largest chili pepper producing country, and Hebei Province stands out as the forth with planting area at about 1500 km2 in China. Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) is susceptible to Colletotrichum spp. infection during its growth, which seriously affects production yield and quality. In September 2020, widespread anthracnose was observed on pepper in Hebei (115.48° N, 38.77° E), China. Necrotic lesions on pepper fruits were suborbcular, sunken, with acervuli arranged in the middle of lesion (e-Xtra 1A).… Show more

“…Many new Colletotrichum species have been introduced in 2022 ( ; accessed on 8 December 2022), and there are potentially many novel species of Colletotrichum that remained undiscovered [ 49 ]. Additionally, many studies reported new hosts for existing Colletotrichum species [ 50 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 ], broadening their host and geographical ranges. Therefore, more investigations on the isolation and identification of Colletotrichum associated with pineapple can improve our knowledge about fungal diversity and host range and will potentially lead to the discovery of novel species of Colletotrichum .…”

“…Capsicum contains a variety of vitamins essential for human health, including a notably high content of vitamin C, therefore earning its name “the king of vitamin C.” It also contains protein, flavonoids, phenols, carotene, peroxidase and cellulose and other substances, all of which play important roles in delaying human aging, improving human resistance and enhancing body endurance ( Batiha et al, 2020 ). Because of its strong adaptability, Capsicum has gradually become one of the most important vegetables widely cultivated in the world, with China being the largest producer ( Zhang et al, 2023 ). Capsicum frutescens Linn.…”
