| Signs and symptoms caused by Pseudocercospora ulei (syn Microcyclus ulei) in Hevea brasiliensis leaflets. (A) Leaf deformation and sporulation of the GCL012 isolate 7 d post inoculation in RRIM 600. (B) Leaf showing the formation of stromatic structures of the isolate GCL012 at 24 dpi on RRIM 600. (C) A leaf of the clone FX 3864 showing the formation of chlorotic areas at 10 d post inoculation. (D) Germinating conidia of the GCL012 isolate. The germ tube can be observed (450X) | |

Pseudocercospora is a genus of ascomycete fungi. An anamorphic version of the genus Mycosphaerella, Pseudocercospora species are plant pathogens, including the causal agent of the so-called South American leaf blight of the rubber tree.[1] The widely distributed genus is concentrated predominantly in tropical regions.[2] Pseudocercospora was circumscribed by Italian-Argentinian botanist Carlos Luigi Spegazzini in 1910.[3]
