Abstract
A previously unrecorded fruit and leaf spot of custard apple caused by Cylindrocladium colhounii is reported in Queensland. The disease causes considerable damage where leaves and fruit come into contact with contaminated soil. The fungus is pathogenic on fruit, leaves, stems and roots. Control strategies include minimisation of rain splash dispersal by pruning low branches, mulching under trees and grassing inter-tree areas.
