However, no symptom was observed on the control. Colletotrichum siamense was successfully re-isolated, fulfilling Koch's postulates. Taken together, it was confirmed that C. siamense is the causal agent of anthracnose on pecan. In Korea, C. siamense was reported causing anthracnose on apple, persimmon and plum (Farr and Rossman 2020). However, to our knowledge, this is the first report of anthracnose on pecan caused by C. siamense in Korea. To control the disease effectively, more attention should be paid to other regions of the country where the disease caused by the pathogen might occur.Farfugium japonicum (L.) Kitam (with the common name leopard plant) is known as a garden and medical herb, and belongs to the family Asteraceae. In May 2019, a leaf spot disease was observed on the upper leaf surface of F. japonicum in Changsha city, Hunan province, China. More than 98% of the F. japonicum plants were infected in a garden of Donghu district (28°13' N; 112°56' E). Leaf symptoms included small (1 to 10 mm in diameter), brown spots that were circular, tan to gray in the center and distinct brownish-yellow margins. Severely affected leaves were blighted and plants were dying. For isolation, symptomatic leaf tissue was surface sterilized, rinsed in sterile distilled water, and plated on potato dextrose agar (PDA) amended with a 50 μg/ml streptomycin sulfate followed by incubation at 25°C in darkness. By a single-spore isolation technique, pure fungal cultures were obtained and displayed gray-brown and gray-white aerial mycelia after five days of incubation. One representative isolate (HnAa-1) was host-pathogen association has been reported in Korea (3), but it is the first report of A. alternata causing leaf spots on F. japonicum in China. Since A. alternata is a ubiquitou
