Cover Story: Red rot disease reduces sugarcane yield and quality, posing a significant threat to Florida’s industry. Although Colletotrichum falcatum, the causal agent in Florida, was first morphologically identified in 1984, molecular and pathological data remain limited, highlighting the need for comprehensive characterization. Phylogenetic analyses of five genetic markers confirmed C. falcatum as the cause of red rot in Southern Florida. Additionally, disease progression was detailed at the cellular level, and the pathogenicity of representative strains was assessed. The local varieties CP96-1252 and CP89-2143 showed greater host resistance. These findings represent the first report of C. falcatum causing red rot in southern Florida, provide insights for red rot management, and support future breeding programs for enhanced sugarcane resistance. View this paper
