- HOSTS
- The species has a very wide host range, but is economically most important on strawberries (Fragaria ananassa).
Other cultivated hosts include Anemone coronaria, apples (Malus pumila), aubergines (Solanum melongena), avocados (Persea americana), Camellia spp., Capsicum annuum, Ceanothus spp., celery (Apium graveolens), coffee (Coffea arabica), guavas (Psidium guajava), olives (Olea europea), pawpaws (Carica papaya), Pinus (especially P. radiata and P. elliottii), tamarillos (Cyphomandra betacea), tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculentum), Tsuga heterophylla and Zinnia spp. Colletotrichum acutatum can apparently affect almost any flowering plant, especially in warm temperate or tropical regions, although its host range needs further clarification. It has rarely been noted on other than agricultural or forestry land. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.7.99.17 (talk) 22:46, 4 August 2015 (UTC)
