Lesions from black spot disease progressed from pale-yellow speckles to dark brown lesions with soft rot.
Molecular identification confirmed the pathogen as Alternaria alternata, with phylogenetic analysis clustering it within known species.
Use of potato dextrose agar allowed successful isolation of the pathogen from affected fruits and its morphological characterization.
Disease control strategies are essential to protect Elaeagnus angustifolia plantations impacted by this emerging fungal threat.
