What is acervulus in Colletotrichum?
Colletotrichum produces spores within an acervulus (fungal fruiting structure). The disk or cushion shaped acervuli break through the surface of host tissue. Short, simple, colorless conidiophores produce abundant conidia. Long, black setae may or may not be produced among conidiophores.
