Abstract

During the last three years (2005-2007) throughout the areas of Lijevce polje, Posavina, Semberija and wider area of Romanijska region, on certain production plots, especially on those where potato is grown, but on those with pepper and tomato as well, was identified the occurrence of diseased plants with noticeable symptoms of anthracnosis. The percentage of infected plants was various. It was from 5-15 % on some parcels and production plots with higher percentage of infection weren’t rare as well, which was the reason of great economic damage. Based on studying of pathogen, morphological and cultivation distinctions of isolated pathogen, it has been identified that the causative agent of noticed symptoms of plant diseases is phytopathogen fungus Colletotrichum coccodes.
The review describes the importance of specified species and symptoms which it causes and hosts which it attacks, as well as the cycles of development, with special emphasis on measurements for its suppression.
