The per cent viability of conidia of Colletotrichum truncatum in crop debris was significantly affected by duration of storage as well as different storage conditions. The conidia survived for a maximum of 360 days under freeze (4-5 degrees C) conditions and least survivability of 90 days under field condition (28-30 degrees C). In case of infected seeds, the pathogen survived up to the next crop season (12 months) but the survivability decreased with lapse of time. However, the germination percentage of the seeds increased with storage time.
