Abstract

In this study, we investigated the phylogenetic affinities of thirteen Colletotrichum isolates associated with symptomatic mango fruits from South Africa. The isolates exhibited resemblance to the members of C. gloeosporioides species complex based on morphology and were identified as C. asianum based on 5′tef1 and Apmat sequence-data. The results of pathogenicity testing validated the Koch?s postulates and confirmed that C. asianum is involved in mango anthracnose in South Africa.

Keywords
