Pseudocercospora subsessilis is a fungal plant pathogen infecting chinaberry tree ( Melia azedarach). It is widespread in tropical and subtropical areas on host species of the genera Azadirachta and Swietenia. [1]
It was originally published as Cercospora subsessilis in 1913 and found on the leaves of the chinaberry tree in Tamil Nadu, India. [2] Before the species was transferred to the Pseudocercospora genus. [3]
The fungal leaf spots can amass to blight the entire leaf and were also capable of rapidly defoliating whole trees in late September. [4]
The disease has been reported in several other Asian countries as well as in Cuba and the United States. [5]
It is found in Burma, Cuba, Hong Kong, India, Jamaica, Japan, China, Nepal, Palestine, Philippines, San Domingo, Sierra Leon, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Taiwan, U.S.A. and Venezuela. [6] It was later found in Korea, on ornamental planted chinaberry trees. [4]
