Abstract: A rapid PCR detection assay of Corynespora cassiicola,the causal agent of Corynespora
leaf spot of cucumber,was developed based on the Actin gene of the pathogen. Primer pair Caa5F/Caa5R
were designed on the different bases of Actin gene sequences between C. cassiicola and other common
plant fungal pathogens,including Corynespora lieustri and Corynespora cambrensis,and only C.
cassiicola performed a 160 bp amplication. C. cassiicola could be detected in infected cucumber leaves
without isolation or cultivation by the PCR assay. The assay with a high sensitivity of 4 pg · μL-1 DNA per
reaction could be a useful tool of rapid detection of Corynespora leaf spot of cucumber.

Key words: Corynespora cassiicola, Actin gene, PCR
