ABSTRACT
The genus
Colletotrichum
comprises a number of plant pathogens of major importance which cause anthracnose diseases on
a wide range of woody and herbaceous plants worldwide. With the advent of molecular studies, it has been shown that most of the
previously known species e.g.
C. boninense,
C. acutatum, and
C. gloeosporioides
have been split into several species. In the present study,
the identity of
Colletotrichum
isolates from the northern and northwestern zone of Iran were determined based on multi-gene phylogenetic analyses. Phylogenetic analysis based on a combination of internal transcribed spacer (ITS), beta tubulin (TUB), histone H3
(HIS), calmodulin (CAL), and actin (ACT) loci, clustered our isolates into three clades, including
C. salicis
on
Salix
sp.,
Colletotrichum
sp. (C. fuscum sensu lato) within the
C. destructivum
species complex on
Viola
sp., and
C. fructicola
on
Citrus sinensis,
Malus domestica,
Gleditsia caspica, and
Sambucus ebulus. These three species are new for mycobiota of Iran. According to these results,
Viola
sp. from West
Azerbaijan (Khoy-Firouragh) is a new host for
Colletotrichum
sp. in the
C. destructivum
species complex.
Furthermore,
C. sinensis
from
Mazandaran (Behshahr), and
G. caspica, and
S. ebulus
from Guilan (Talesh), are new host records for
C. fructicola.
