Anthracnose on strawberry in France : Situation and perspectives

• Anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum acutatum, on strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa) was first reported on fruit in France in 1981. Damage was later recorded on runners, petioles, foliage and crowns. The evolution of a disease control method, the molecular variability of C acutatum, the study of the interaction between pathogen and host, the different techniques of inoculation, and the last results concerning QTLs linked to resistance to C acutatum are reported, which cover 10 years of research in France.
