Host specificity of Colletotrichum truncatum from lentil.

The article discusses a study on the host ranges of Colletotrichum trancatum isolates from lentil. The study assessed leguminous species through controlled conditions and field trials, and the seed of every plant variety was planted individually in plastic pots in a soil-less potting mixture. Accordingly, chosen plant species were evaluated for their response to C. truncatum races from lentil. Results show that there was no substantive distinction in the host ranges of two C. truncantum races.
