The ApMat marker can resolve Colletotrichum species: a case study with Mangifera indica
Abstract
Anthracnose disease caused by the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides species complex is a major problem worldwide. In this study, we investigated the phylogenetic diversity of 207 Indian Colletotrichum isolates, associated with symptomatic and asymptomatic tissues of mango, belonging to this species complex. Phylogenetic analyses were performed based on a 6-gene dataset ( act , cal , chs1 , gapdh , ITS and tub2 ), followed by ApMat sequence-analysis. The ApMat -based phylogeny was found to be superior as it provided finer resolution in most of the species-level clades. Importantly, the ApMat marker identified seven lineages within C. siamense sensu lato , including C. jasmini-sambac , C. hymenocallidis , C. melanocaulon , C. siamense sensu stricto and three undesignated, potentially novel lineages. In this study, C. fragariae sensu stricto , C. fructicola , C. jasmini-sambac , C. melanocaulon and five undesignated, potentially novel lineages were found to be associated with mango tissues. There is a need to develop a consensus among mycologists as to which genes should be used to define and delimit a Colletotrichum species and in the mean time mycologists should voluntarily restrain from describing new species based on inadequate datasets.

In the present study, C. asianum, C. cordylinicola, C. fructicola, C. gloeosporioides, C. kahawae, C. musae, C. siamense, and C. tropicale can all be placed into the C. gloeosporioides species complex, and these results are consistent with previous reports that the C. gloeosporioides species complex is a preponderant Colletotrichum species associated with mango anthracnose.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
