: an important genus of canker pathogens.

species have commonly been reported as important plant pathogenic fungi with wide host ranges and geographic distributions. With the increase in the number of cryptic species being described, a comprehensive global taxonomic revision of the genus is required. The present study includes 399 isolates from 32 countries.

Endophytic species of Colletotrichum associated with cashew tree in northeastern Brazil.

Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum is the most severe and widely occurring cashew disease in Brazil. Colletotrichum species are commonly found as pathogens, endophytes and occasionally as saprophytes in a wide range of hosts. The endophytic species associated with cashew trees are poorly studied.

Molecular phylogeny and morphology reveal two new graminicolous species, and . with new records of spp from Sri Lanka.

Despite being a small island, Sri Lanka is rich in fungal diversity. Most of the fungi from Sri Lanka have been identified as pathogens of vegetables, fruits, and plantation crops to date. The pleosporalean genus () includes phytopathogenic, saprobic, endophytic, and human/animal opportunistic pathogenic fungal species.

Diversity of species associated with torch ginger anthracnose.

Anthracnose caused by species is one of the most important diseases of torch ginger. The disease leads to loss of aesthetic and commercial value of torch ginger stems. This study aimed to characterize species associated with torch ginger anthracnose in the production areas of Pernambuco and Ceará.

Phylogeographic and Phylogenomic Structure of the Quarantine Plant Pathogen , Including New Reports in the United States.

Global agricultural trade has accelerated the emergence and re-emergence of new plant pathogens. In the United States, the fungal pathogen is still considered a foreign quarantine pathogen that affects ornamental plants (i.e.
