Ciri dan struktur
Cercospora melongenae is found primarily in warm climates close to the equator. In the US it is prevalent in Hawaii, and could potentially be found in the southern Continental US. Symptoms begin to show on the underside of older, lower leaves first due to the proximity to the soil. They are the first leaves to receive the inoculum. Lesions can be found on leaves, stems and petioles. The lesions appear small and circular at first and later progress to angular and more irregular shapes. The lesions are usually 4-10mm in diameter, and have light to dark tan concentric spots. Spots appear on the upper leaf surface first and eventually progress to the lower side of the leaf. Upon observation in the field with a handheld scope, signs of conidiophores can be seen in the stomata of infected tissue. Conidiophores are typically mid-brown, and straight or slightly flexuous and septate. They are typically 30-150 microns long and 4-7 microns wide. Conidia can also sometimes be seen. Conidia of Cercospora melongenae typically have a truncate base with a somewhat thickened convex scar and a sub-acute apex. The conidia are typically 40-150 microns long and 3-4.5 microns wide, and of 4-14 septate. Later in the disease cycle excessive sporulation can be readily observed in the center of the lesions. Eventually the lesions will dry up and in some cases fall out. The fungi does not affect the fruit, however yield can be impacted due to loss of photosynthetic material. Cercospora melongenae exists wholly in its asexual stage; even when grown in culture in the lab, no sexual stage is seen. This means that this disease has an imperfect life cycle, making it of the deuteromycota.
Habitat dan peran ekologis
Cercospora melongenae adalah patogen tumbuhan jamur yang menyebabkan noda daun pada terong (Solanum melongenum). Ini adalah jamur deuteromycete yang terutama terbatas pada spesies terong. Some other spesies inang adalah Solanum aethiopicum dan Solanum incanum. This plant pathogen only attacks leaves of eggplants and not the fruit. Ini cukup umum di antara jamur yang menginfeksi taman komunitas dan kebun rumah terong. Generally speaking, Cercospora melongenae menyerang semua varietas lokal teropong, tetapi paling parah pada Philippine eggplant dan kurang parasit pada Siamese variety. Cercospora melongenae terutama ditemukan di iklim hangat dekat khatulistiwa. Di AS, ini sangat umum di Hawaii, dan berpotensi ditemukan di Amerika Serikat Benua Selatan. Symptoms begin untuk muncul di bagian bawah daun yang lebih tua, lebih rendah pertama karena kedekatan dengan tanah. They are daun pertama untuk menerima inoculum. Lesions can ditemukan pada daun, batang dan petioles. Lesi tampak kecil dan bulat pada awalnya dan kemudian berkembang menjadi bentuk sudut dan lebih tidak teratur. Lesi biasanya berdiameter 4-10mm, dan memiliki titik konsentris berwarna cokelat terang hingga gelap. Spots appear pada permukaan atas daun pertama dan akhirnya maju ke sisi bawah daun.
