Abstract

In 2014, Anthracnose symptoms were observed on fruit of pumpkin in Gangneung, Gangwon in Korea. The typical symptoms on fruit surfaces were circular lesions, brown, shriveled with salmon-colored spore masses on the spots. A fungal isolate was obtained from symptomatic on fruit and cultured on potato dextrose agar at 25℃. The color of the upper surface of the colony varied from white to gray with occurrence of salmon-colored conidial masses and was red to violet on the underside. The causal fungus of anthracnose isolated from the diseased fruits was identified as Colletotrichum fioriniae based on mycological characteristics and sequences of the internal transcribed spacer, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, chitin synthase-1 gene, histone H3, actin gene, beta-tubulin gene region. Pathogenicity tests of the isolate were performed on pumpkin fruit by both wound and non-wound inoculation with conidial suspension (1×106 conidia/ml) and incubated at 25℃. Lesions were observed on both wounded and non-wounded fruit of pumpkin after 7 days inoculation in only C. fioriniae. The pathogen was re-isolated from the lesions of inoculated fruits. To our knowledge, this is the first report of anthracnose on fruit of pumpkin caused by C. fioriniae in Korea.

강원도 강릉시 사천면 비닐하우스에서 재배중인 호박 과실에 탄저병이 발생하였다. 병든 호박 과실에 분홍색의 분생포자 층이 동심원으로 나타나 점차 확대되어 과실이 무르는 증상을 나타내었다. 원인균을 규명하기 위하여 순수 분리 후 균학적 특성 및 ITS, GAPDH, CHS-1, HIS3, ACT, TUB2 염기서열 분석결과 Colletotrichum fioriniae로 동정하였다. 또한, 병원성이 확인되었고 접종시험에서 동일한 균이 반복적으로 분리되었다. 따라서, 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 C. fioriniae에 의한 호박 과실에 발생하는 탄저병의 발생을 국내 처음으로 보고한다.
