Abstract: Comparing the isolates which three belong to Marssonina brunnea f.sp.monogermtubi and four belong to Marssonina brunnea f.sp.multigermtubi,no significant difference was found on the morphological features of conidia (shape,mean dimension,size and septum location).But there are much difference occourring on the cultural features and pathogenicity between the two specialized forms.The isolates of M.brunnea f.sp.monogermitubi possesses the characteristics of faster colony growth, dark reddish conidiosorus production on PDA medium, mostly pathogenic to P.tomentosa and slightly  pathogenic to P.×euramericana Ⅰ45, P.canadensis, P.cathayana and P.simonii by artificialinoculation.The isolates of M.brunnea f.sp.multigermtubi, however,has the characteristics of slowly colony radial growth and  yellowishgreen conidiosorus production, seriously pathgenic to P.×euramericana Ⅰ45 and P.canadensis, also pathgenic to P.tomentosa, P.cathayana and P.simonii.The test of hyphal anastomoses showed that the hyphae which of the same specialized form can anastomose together.Hyphal anastomoses shall not occour between two hyphae which come from two different specialized forms.
