Abstract

The effect of different factors on sporulation of Colletotrichum coffeanum was investigated. Result showed that V8 and PDA media were suitable for the growth of C. coffeanmum. On the contrary, the content of the media gave a significant impact on sporulation. The media content increased then it would greatly increase the sporulation. 12 h light/dark photoperiod (12:12 L:D; 10000 lux, fluorescent lamp) was the most suitable light condition for C. coffeanmum sporulation, compared with constant darkness (continuous darkness; CD) and constant illumination (continuous light; CL; 10000 lux, fluorescent lamp). Moreover, the growth rate in the 28th day showed the fastest growing culture. It is concluded 10 ml PDA medium and incubated 28 days under natural light conditions was the best time of sporulation.
