The <strong>Colletotrichum</strong> acutatum <strong>species</strong> <strong>complex</strong><br />

Fig. 23. <strong>Colletotrichum</strong> ph<strong>or</strong>mii (from ex-epitype strain <strong>CBS</strong> 118194). A–B. Conidiomata. C. Seta. D–G. Conidioph<strong>or</strong>es. H–L. Appress<strong>or</strong>ia. M–N. Conidia. A, C–D, M. from<br />

Anthriscus stem. B, E–L, N. from SNA. A–B. DM, C–N. DIC, Scale bars: A = 100 µm, D = 10 µm. Scale bar of A applies to A–B. Scale bar of D applies to C–N.<br />

simple <strong>or</strong> septate and branched, to 40 µm in length. Conidiogenous<br />

cells hyaline to pale brown, smooth-walled to finely verruculose,<br />

cylindrical, elongate ampullif<strong>or</strong>m to ampullif<strong>or</strong>m, 7.5–16.5 × 2.2–<br />

4.5 µm, opening 1–1.5 µm diam, collarette 1–2 µm long, periclinal<br />

thickening visible. Conidia hyaline, smooth-walled <strong>or</strong> verruculose,<br />

aseptate, straight, cylindrical to fusif<strong>or</strong>m with both ends acute <strong>or</strong><br />

one end round and one end acute, (17–)20–26(–35.5) × 4–5(–6.5)<br />

µm, mean ± SD = 23.0 ± 3.2 × 4.6 ± 0.6 µm, L/W ratio = 5.1.<br />

Appress<strong>or</strong>ia single <strong>or</strong> in loose groups, medium to dark brown,<br />

outline mostly oblong to irregular, the edge entire <strong>or</strong> undulate,<br />

rarely lobate, (4–)8.5–20.5(–32) × (2.5–)4–6(–8) µm, mean ± SD<br />

= 14.5 ± 6.2 × 5.1 ± 1.0 µm, L/W ratio = 2.9, appress<strong>or</strong>ia of strain<br />

<strong>CBS</strong> 102054 are sh<strong>or</strong>ter, measuring (5.5–)8–13(–14.5) × 5–6.5(–8)<br />

µm, mean ± SD = 10.4 ± 2.4 × 5.8 ± 0.8 µm, L/W ratio = 1.8.<br />

Asexual m<strong>or</strong>ph on Anthriscus stem. Conidiomata acervular,<br />

conidioph<strong>or</strong>es and setae f<strong>or</strong>med on a cushion of pale brown<br />

roundish to angular cells, 2.5–10 µm diam. Setae few, hyaline to<br />

medium brown, smooth-walled, 0–1-septate, 25–70 µm long, base<br />

cylindrical, to 5 µm diam, tip ± roundish to ± acute. Conidioph<strong>or</strong>es<br />

pale brown, smooth-walled, septate, branched, to 50 µm<br />

long. Conidiogenous cells pale brown, smooth-walled, usually<br />

cylindrical, sometimes elongate ampullif<strong>or</strong>m to ampullif<strong>or</strong>m , 8–25<br />

× 2.5–3.5(–5.5) µm, opening 1–1.5 µm diam, collarette 1 µm<br />

long, periclinal thickening visible. Conidia hyaline, smooth-walled,<br />

aseptate, straight, cylindrical to fusif<strong>or</strong>m with both ends acute,<br />

(14–)20–24.5(–25.5) × 4–4.5(–5) µm (one conidium measured 47<br />

× 5 µm), mean ± SD = 22.3 ± 2.3 × 4.3 ± 0.2 µm, L/W ratio = 5.2,<br />

conidia of most other strains are slightly broader and those of strain<br />

<strong>CBS</strong> 118191 are additionally sh<strong>or</strong>ter than conidia of the ex-epitype<br />

strain, measuring (14–)18.5–22(–24) × (4–)4.5–5(–5.5) µm, mean<br />

± SD = 20.3 ± 1.9 × 4.9 ± 0.4 µm, L/W ratio = 4.1.<br />

Culture characteristics: Colonies on SNA flat with entire margin,<br />

hyaline with felty white aerial mycelium on Anthriscus stem and<br />

filter paper, filter paper on both sides partially olivaceous to pale<br />

olivaceous grey; growth rate 15–19 mm in 7 d (27.5–32.5 mm in<br />

10 d). Colonies on OA flat with entire margin; surface buff, with<br />

olivaceous to grey olivaceous sect<strong>or</strong>s, and roundish olivaceous<br />

grey structures embedded in the medium, surface partly covered<br />

with floccose-felty white to pale olivaceous grey aerial mycelium,<br />

reverse buff with pale to dark olivaceous grey sect<strong>or</strong>s; growth rate<br />

15–21 mm in 7 d (27.5–33.5 mm in 10 d). Conidia in mass salmon.<br />
