摘要： Camellia oleifera C.Abel, commonly known as tea-oil camellia, is a type of significant woody oil crop that is widely cultivated in southern China. During 2017-2021, a fungal foliar disease was detected in routine surveys in Hainan. However, diseases of tea-oil camellia are seldom reported in Hainan. In this study, 51 Colletotrichum spp. isolates were obtained from the symptomatic samples of tea-oil camellia, collected from three production sites located in Hainan. A polyphasic approach was applied to distinguish Colletotrichum species. All 51 isolates were primarily characterized morphologically, and six gene regions, including an internally transcribed space of ribosomal DNA (ITS), chitinsynthase (CHS-1), fi-tubulin (TUB), actin (ACT), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), and manganese-superoxide (SOD2), were sequenced for each isolate. By combining morphological characterization with multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) based on the six genes, the fungal isolates were identified, representing three Colletrotrichum species: C. fructicola, C. siamense, and C. cordylinicola. The most predominant species was C. fructicola. In pathogenicity tests on the tea-oil camellia cultivar (Reyan1), all collected isolates were pathogenic on tea-oil camellia leaves and were reisolated from symptomatic leaves. Colletotrichum fructicola was the most aggressive species on the attached leaves. This is the first report of C. cordylinicola affecting tea-oil camellia anthracnose worldwide. These results will improve our understanding of the pathogens and provide important insights on the diagnosis and efficient disease management of tea-oil camellia anthracnose.
