- Abstract
An unrecorded disease of persimmon ( Diospyros kaki) with black spot symptoms on its mature fruit sporadically occurred in central Taiwan in August 2014. The causal agent was isolated and re-inoculated to show its pathogenicity on persimmon. The pathogen was identified as Phyllosticta capitalensis based on morphology of its ascospores and conidia, and molecular barcodes from ex-type sequences on GenBank of the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), the actin gene (ACT) and the translation elongation factor 1-alpha gene (TEF1). This is the first report of persimmon disease caused by P. capitalensis in Taiwan.
