Abstract
A strain of Colletotrichum trancatum has been discovered which is selectively pathogenic toward hemp sesbania (Sesbania exaltata). Formulations incorporating propagules of the fungal pathogen are useful for biological control of the hemp sesbania weed, particularly in agriculatural fields.
