Abstract
The genus Cercospora is one of the largest genera of hyphomycetes. Cercospora apii sensu lato is the oldest name for a large complex of morphologically indistinguishable Cercospora species occurring on a wide host range. There are currently 659 recognized Cercospora species, and names of another 281 morphologically identical species are included in the synonymy of C. apii sensu lato. Two of the species that belong to the C. apii complex, namely C. apii and C. beticola, cause Cercospora leaf spot on Apium graveolens (celery) and Beta vulgaris (sugarbeet), respectively. In the present study, multi-locus sequence data, Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) analysis and cultural characteristics were used as additional features to characterize morphologically similar Cercospora strains occurring on celery and sugarbeet. From the data obtained, it is shown that C. apii and C. beticola, although morphologically similar and able to cross-infect each others hosts, are distinct functional species that should be retained as separate entities. Furthermore, a third, as yet undescribed species of Cercospora was detected in celery fields in Korea and Venezuela, suggesting that additional undescribed species may also be found to cause Cercospora leaf spot on celery. A PCR-based diagnostic protocol distinguishes all three Cercospora species.
