Lasiodiplodia theobromae
(Pat.) Griffon & Maubl.
Study description
Pathology/Substrate: Endophyte and phytopathogenic fungus causing cankers and dieback on woody plants.
Conidiomata: Pycnidial, immersed in bark, erumpent, blackish, 0.3-0.5 mm in diameter. Peridium composed of thick-walled, dark brown angular cells.
Conidiogenous cells: Hyaline, cylindrical to ampulliform, 7-16 x 3-8 µm.
Conidia: Subovoid to ellipsoid-oblong, apex broadly rounded, base truncate. Initially unicellular, hyaline and thick-walled with granular contents; at maturity becoming dark brown, 1-septate (two-celled), with prominent longitudinal striations, 20-30 x 12-16 µm.
