Yellow passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa) is rich in nutrients. In March 2018, anthracnose symptoms were observed in Hainan, China, caused by the pathogen Colletotrichum brevisporum. Pathogenicity tests and Koch's postulates confirmed that C. brevisporum is the cause of rot on yellow passion fruit in China.
Yellow passion fruit (Passiflora edulis f. flavicarpa) is rich in nutrients. In March 2018, anthracnose symptoms were observed in a storeroom in Baoting, Hainan province, China. The pathogen namely Colletotrichum brevisporum was isolated and identified from symptomatic fruits based on the morphological and multi-gene phylogenetic analyses derived from an internal transcribed spacer (ITS), beta-tubulin (beta-tub), fragments of actin (ACT), and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). A pathogenicity test and revalidation of Koch's postulates indicated that the fungus was cause of disease on yellow passion fruit. And the cause of rot on yellow passion fruit is C. brevisporum in China.
