Almond and other deciduous fruits may be
infected by C. acutatum or C. gloeosporioides
(Table 1) (1,5,46,50). Citrus can
be affected by four different Colletotrichum
diseases (61): postbloom fruit drop
and key lime anthracnose, both caused by
C. acutatum, and shoot dieback and leaf
spot, and postharvest fruit decay, both
caused by C. gloeosporioides. Additional
examples of hosts affected by multiple
Colletotrichum species include coffee,
cucurbits, pepper, and tomato.
