Introduction
Colletotrichum gloeosporioides (Penz.) Penz.
and Sacc. cause anthracnose on mango, reducing
the quality and marketability of the fruit. Immature,
green mangoes show no symptoms from quiescent
infection of the pathogen, but upon ripening, the
disease develops and symptoms appear as dark
brown or black spots. Fungicides are used as the
main practice to prevent losses. Fungicide is sprayed
for 8-10 times (7-day-interval) before wrapping the
mango fruits in paper bags
