Chilli (Capsicum annum L.) fruits showing typical
anthracnose symptoms of sunken necrotic lesions with black
dot like acervuliin concentric rings collected from Research
Farm, ICAR- IIVR, Varanasi.
Infected fruits were examined under a microscope and
small pieces of infected tissue were inoculated on potato
dextrose agar (PDA). The inoculated Petri plates were
incubated at 28°C ±1°C for 7 days. Pure culture of the
pathogen isolate was established on PDA by hyphal tip
method. Under light microscope, one-celled, smooth walled
hyline falcate, tapered ended conidia (16-26 × 3-4 µm) and
acervuli were recorded. On the basis of macroscopic and
microscopic features of the pathogen colony and on the basis
of their habitat and size of acervuli and conidia of chilli fruit
rot causing pathogen was identified as Colletotrichum capsici.
Colletotrichum sp. is an anamorphicfungal genera
ranking8thamong top ten most important fungal plant
pathogens in the world.In this respect this documentation
will be play important role for better understanding of the
pathogen and formulation of diseasemanagement strategies
for prevention of pre and post- harvest crop losses under
changing climatic scenario
