Effect of different degrees of temperature, different levels of pH , different periods of
light and four media (PDA, OMA, MEA, CzA) was studied in vitro against the growth of
C. gloeosporioides causing anthracnose disease of citrus fruits. The resu
lts indicated that
the growth of fungus was maximum at temperature 30°C and at pH = (5.5,6,6.5), and Light
was unnecessary for the growth of C. gloeosporioides. Among the different media tested
PDA and OMA supported the maximum growth of fungus.
