Article Synopsis
  • Mexico is a major papaya producer but suffers over 50% crop losses from fungal pathogens, particularly papaya anthracnose caused by three Colletotrichum species.
  • Two species have been detailed in previous studies, while C. magnum remains poorly understood, making its genetic characterization essential.
  • Research identified significant genetic diversity in C. magnum isolates from various locations, particularly Chiapas, which will aid in improving disease management strategies for papaya anthracnose.
