Abstract
Anthracnose fruit rot disease of chilli caused by the fungus Colletotrichum capsici is seed-borne. Seedlings emerging from infected seeds develop symptoms on the cotyledonary leaves and hypocotyls. Infected seedlings are weak and stunted when compared with non-infected seedlings. Seed-borne infection promoted germination. This is probably the result of the production of cell-wall mascerating enzymes which promote structural breakdown of the seed coat. Control or reduction of the disease is possible with the use of disease-free seeds and the application of prophylactic sprays of fungicides.
