Seed-Borne Infection Colletotrichum (Schw.) Andrus and Moore in Soybean Seeds and its Control

C. truncatum have been recognized as a soybean seed pathogen for over 40 years, causing pre-and post- emergence damping-off of seedlings and seedling blight. Although much is known of the effects of this pathogen on soybean seed quality and vigour, fundamental studies on the pathogen, its seed-b...
