Abstract

Sugarcane is an important cash crop and used as the chief source of sugar, grown in tropical and subtropical region in India. Sugarcane production is challenged by various biotic and abiotic stresses, among the biotic factors, red rot disease caused by Colletotrichum falcatum, is a major disease leading to severe reduction in sugarcane production. Cultural, morphological studies conducted under, in vitro in Oat Meal Agar (OMA), showed characteristic variation in their conidial and colony characters, which were five isolates collected from various places, in Uttar Pradesh. Thus, the present study brings the cultural morphological variations and virulence characters, of C. falcatum.
