Abstract
The anamorphic pycnidial fungus
Ascochyta pisi is one member of a species complex that causes
Ascochyta blight of pea, a potentially devastating disease. The teleomorphic state of this fungus was induced under laboratory conditions. Using morphological and molecular characters, we placed the teleomorph within the genus
Didymella as
D. pisi and describe a heterothallic mating system using a PCR-based mating type assay and
in vitro crosses. We compare
D. pisi with other
Didymella spp. with which it might be confused.
