Plant Disease 68: 824-825. each isolate. Measurements for each group were averaged to obtain ranges of Glomerella cingulata was isolated from anthracnose lesions on strawberry fruits. Lesions caused by average conidial sizes for each isolate. G. cingulata on fruits in the field and inoculated fruits Were indistinguishable from those caused by Measurements were also made of one Colletotrichumfragariae. Conidia of G. cingulata were slightly shorter but larger in diameter than those reported for C. fragariae. group of 25 ascospores of the G. cingulata isolate.
