WHO CAUSES IT?
Anthracnose is a fungal disease caused by different species of fungi of the genus Colletotrichum, which affects a wide variety of plants, including ornamental and garden plants. This pathogen is characterized by producing dark Taches on the leaves, stems and fruits of infected plants. These Taches typically have a dark edge and a lighter-colored center, and over time they can expand and merge, causing breakdown of plant tissue and reduced plant yield.
