ABSTRACT:
A strain of the fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides NRRL 21046 has been discovered, which is herbicidally active against the weeds coffee senna and sicklepod when applied as a postemergent. Compositions of the fungus provide a methodology for a biologically based herbicidal control. This affords an alternative to expensive chemical sprays and thereby a means for protecting the environment.
