Abstract A description is provided for Diaporthe citri. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: On Citrus aurantifolia, C. aurantium, C. grandis, C. limon, C. parasisi, C. reticulata and C. sinensis. DISEASE: Melanose of Citrus spp. and stem end rot of the fruit. Symptoms occur on the immature leaves, young branches, stalks and fruit. The very small spots enlarge, become water-soaked, sunken, dark with chlorotic halos and develop raised, corky, superficial, necrotic areas up to 1 mm diam. ; this spotting is frequently very abundant and scar-like, necrotic aggregations are formed; on the fruit the spots are sometimes arranged in rings, lines or curves. Leaves are distorted and may fall prematurely. The small, dying branches bear the same raised spots in which both spore stages are found. Diaporthe citri is one of the citrus pathogens which penetrates the fruit at the stem end and causes a rot in storage (7, 713; 23, 386; 50, 679). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Widespread in citrus growing areas (CMI Map 126, ed. 2, 1966). TRANSMISSION: Water-borne through the conidia.

Abstract A description is provided for Phomopsis tersa. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Passiflora edulis, P. edulis cv. Flavicarpa and Passilqora sp. (Passifloraceae). DISEASE: Post-harvest stem end rot of passion fruit. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Africa (Mauritius); Europe (Malta, Portugal); America (South America: Brazil); Asia (Malaysia, Sarawak, Sri Lanka); Australasia & Oceania (Australia: Queensland; Fiji). TRANSMISSION: Most probably by water-borne conidia during wet or humid conditions. It is also possible that conidia could be disseminated by contaminated knives during harvesting.

Abstract A description is provided for Guignardia aesculi. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: Aesculus glabra, A. hippocastanum (main host) (Hippocastanaceae). Several other species of Aesculus and subspecies including A. ambigua, A. arnoldiana, A. bushii, A. carnea, A. discolor, A. dupontii, A. hybrida, A. mississippiensis, A. mutabilis, A. neglecta, A. octandra, A. pavia, A. splendens, A. turbinata and A. woerlitzensis have been reported to be susceptible (Neely & Himelick, 1963; 50, 2509). DISEASE: Leaf blotch or black rot of Aesculus hippocastanum (horse chestnut) and other Aesculus species (5, 706; 28, 38; 64, 4521). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Europe (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Switzerland, U.K., Yugoslavia); North America (Canada: Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec; U.S.A. : Eastern U.S.A). TRANSMISSION: Presumably by water-borne conidia during wet conditions. Ascomata are produced on leaves left to over winter outside and both conidia and ascospores discharged from over wintered leaves have been reported to infect leaves of seedlings and produce blotch symptoms (Hudson, 1987).
