Habitat and Host Indicate Lineage Identity in Colletotrichum gloeosporioides s.l. from Wild and Agricultural Landscapes in North America
Figure 5
Box plots of conidial sizes representing various species in the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides species complex.
A, C, E) Box plot of species isolated from Vaccinium macrocarpon and other sympatric host species in commercial cranberry beds. Red boxes represent species where strains have been isolated from V. macrocarpon in commercial beds only. The measurements for C. sp. indet. C were taken from the only strain to have been isolated from commercial cranberry beds. Non-colored boxes represent species isolated only from sympatric host species. B, D, F) Box plot of several strains representing species within the C. gloeosporioides species complex. Purple boxes represent species that contain strains isolated from host plants found in wild and commercial cranberry bogs in North America. The measurements for Colletotrichum sp. indet. C were taken from both known strains. Non-colored boxes represent species not found in these habitats.
