This disease has been mainly associated with the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides complex (Kamei et al. 2014). In June 2012, two typical isolates of the C. gloeosporioides complex were obtained from symptomatic leaves (dark, circular, and necrotic lesions) of plants located in the counties of Maragogi and Estrela de Alagoas, Alagoas state, Brazil. Single-conidium cultures were obtained on potato dextrose agar (PDA) for both isolates, and deposited at the Coleção de Culturas de Fungos Fitopatogênicos da Universidade Federal de Alagoas (codes COUFAL1111 and COUFAL7777). Colonies on PDA were light gray with whitish edges, and cottony. The underside of the colony was uniformly gray presenting sectors toward the edges with a growth rate of 9.0 mm/day. Conidia were cylindrical, aseptate, hyaline, rounded at both ends, and 10.5 to 22.5 µm long and 3 to 6.5 µm wide. The morphological characteristics were consistent with descriptions of C. gloeosporioides sensu lato (Weir et al. 2012). To confirm the identity, partial sequences of manganese-superoxide dismutase (SOD), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), chitin synthase (CHS), calmodulin (CAL), β-tubulin 2 (TUB2), actin (ACT), and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) (accession nos. KX013517 to KX013530) were used in a search in the Q-bank fungi database and retrieved C. fructicola with 99 to 100% identities. In addition, Bayesian inference analysis using concatenated sequences (TUB2, ACT, CAL, CHS, GAPDH, ITS, and SOD) placed the Colletotrichum isolates reported here in a same clade with other C. fructicola specimens (study S19095 deposited in TreeBASE). To confirm pathogenicity, a conidial suspension (106 conidia/ml) in water was prepared from a 15-day-old culture (grown at 25°C) and sprayed on asymptomatic leaves of soursop (A. muricata L.) and sugar apple (A. squamosa L.). On control leaves, only sterilized water was used. Leaves were kept for 2 days in a humid chamber at 25°C. After 5 days, lesions were observed on 100% of the inoculated leaves. To fulfill Koch's postulates, the fungus C. fructicola was successfully reisolated from inoculated leaves. No disease symptoms were observed on the control leaves. Other Colletotrichum species were recorded on Annona spp. (Kamei et al. 2014), but no isolate was genetically similar to C. fructicola. This pathogen was previously reported only on apple, cassava, and mango in Brazil (Bragança et al. 2016; Lima et al. 2013; Velho et al. 2015). To our knowledge, this is the first report of C. fructicola causing anthracnose on leaves of Annona spp. in Brazil.References:Bragança, C. A. D., et al. 2016.
