Article Synopsis
- Olive anthracnose, caused by different species, leads to significant losses in olive fruit yield and oil quality globally.
- A thorough investigation of 185 isolates from olives and other hosts revealed varying pathogenicity and morphology, but phenotypic traits sometimes fell short of identifying all species accurately.
- Molecular techniques using specific gene regions (like ITS and TUB2) proved effective for species identification, with twelve species identified, showcasing notable virulence differences depending on the host and origin of the isolates.
