“…Three C. karstii isolates were collected from orange leaves in the 1970s and were maintained in State fungaria, suggesting C. karstii has been a citrus pathogen for over 50 years in Australia but was misidentified as C. gloeosporioides . Colletotrichum karstii was reported to infect citrus and to have a wide global distribution [ 8 , 11 , 13 , 16 , 23 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ]. Previously, C. karstii was reported from other hosts such as black plum ( Diospyros australis ), strawberry ( Fragaria x ananassa ), and banana ( Musa banksia ) in Australia [ 37 ].…”

Colletotrichum spp. are important pathogens of citrus that cause dieback of branches and postharvest disease. Globally, several species of Colletotrichum have been identified as causing anthracnose of citrus. One hundred and sixty-eight Colletotrichum isolates were collected from anthracnose symptoms on citrus stems, leaves, and fruit from Victoria, New South Wales, and Queensland, and from State herbaria in Australia. Colletotrichum australianum sp. nov., C. fructicola, C. gloeosporioides, C. karstii, C. siamense, and C. theobromicola were identified using multi-gene phylogenetic analyses based on seven genomic loci (ITS, gapdh, act, tub2, ApMat, gs, and chs-1) in the gloeosporioides complex and five genomic loci (ITS, tub2, act, chs-1, and his3) in the boninense complex, as well as morphological characters. Several isolates pathogenic to chili (Capsicum annuum), previously identified as C. queenslandicum, formed a clade with the citrus isolates described here as C. australianum sp. nov. The spore shape and culture characteristics of the chili and citrus isolates of C. australianum were similar and differed from those of C. queenslandicum. This is the first report of C. theobromicola isolated from citrus and the first detection of C. karstii and C. siamense associated with citrus anthracnose in Australia.

“…It is likely that the proportion of C. gloeosporioides and C. karstii isolates recovered in this study and the distribution of these two Colletotrichum species in surveyed areas depend on other factors conditioning their fitness and adaptative capacity. In the years following the revision of the systematics of C. gloeosporioides and C. boninense species complexes that led to the segregation of C. karstii as a distinct species within the C. boninense complex, C. karstii has been increasingly reported from several citrus growing countries, including China, Iran, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, South Africa, Tunisia, Turkey and USA, always in association with other Colletotrichum species, mainly C. gloeosporioides [ 5 , 10 , 19 , 20 , 23 , 24 , 27 , 28 ]. This does not imply necessarily that C. karstii is an emerging pathogen sensu [ 4 ].…”

“…C. kahawae subsp. ciggaro ), C. gloeosporioides sensu stricto (s.s.) and C. hystricis , within the C. gloeosporioides species complex, C. catinaense and C. karstii , within the C. boninense species complex, and C. acutatum s.s., within the C. acutatum species complex, have been reported from Italy [ 9 , 10 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ], while in the literature there is no record of Colletotrichum infecting citrus from Albania. The objectives of this study were to identify the Colletotrichum species associated with the new disease twig and shoot dieback or Colletotrichum twig and shoot dieback of citrus in Albania and Sicily and evaluate the pathogenicity of these Colletotrichum species on different plant organs, including fruit, leaves and shoots.…”

(1) Background: This study was aimed at identifying the Colletotrichum species associated with twig and shoot dieback of citrus, a new syndrome occurring in the Mediterranean region and also reported as emerging in California. (2) Methods: Overall, 119 Colletotrichum isolates were characterized. They were recovered from symptomatic trees of sweet orange, mandarin and mandarin-like fruits during a survey of citrus groves in Albania and Sicily (southern Italy). (3) Results: The isolates were grouped into two distinct morphotypes. The grouping of isolates was supported by phylogenetic sequence analysis of two genetic markers, the internal transcribed spacer regions of rDNA (ITS) and β-tubulin (TUB2). The groups were identified as Colletotrichum gloeosporioides and C. karstii, respectively. The former accounted for more than 91% of isolates, while the latter was retrieved only occasionally in Sicily. Both species induced symptoms on artificially wound inoculated twigs. C. gloeosporioides was more aggressive than of C. karstii. Winds and prolonged drought were the factor predisposing to Colletotrichum twig and shoot dieback. (4) Conclusions: This is the first report of C. gloeosporioides and C. karstii as causal agents of twig and shoot dieback disease in the Mediterranean region and the first report of C. gloeosporioides as a citrus pathogen in Albania.

Camellia oleifera (Ca. oleifera) is a woody tree species cultivated for the production of edible oil from its seed. The growth and yield of tea-oil trees are severely affected by anthracnose (caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides). In this study, the transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses were performed to detect the key transcripts and metabolites associated with differences in the susceptibility between anthracnose-resistant (ChangLin150) and susceptible (ChangLin102) varieties of Ca. oleifera. In total, 5001 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained, of which 479 DEGs were common between the susceptible and resistant varieties and further analyzed. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that these DEGs were significantly enriched in tyrosine metabolism, phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, flavonoid biosynthesis and isoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis pathways. Furthermore, 68 differentially accumulated metabolites (DAMs) were detected, including flavonoids, such as epicatechin, phenethyl caffeate and procyanidin B2. Comparison of the DEGs and DAMs revealed that epicatechin, procyanidin B2 and arachidonic acid (peroxide free) are potentially important. The expression patterns of genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis were confirmed by qRT-PCR. These results suggested that flavonoid biosynthesis might play an important role in the fight against anthracnose. This study provides valuable molecular information about the response of Ca. oleifera to Co. gloeosporioides infection and will aid the selection of resistant varieties using marker-assisted breeding.
