                         pathogens Colletotrichum acutatum and Fusarium fujikuroi were 
                         studied. Both fungi were grown on potato dextrose agar medium 
                         (PDA) in the dark (control) or on PDA under continuous white, 
                         blue, green or red light. In addition, the conidia from each 
                         treatment were exposed to UV radiation. The germination and growth 
                         of both plant pathogenic fungi were not affected by any of the 
                         treatments. C. acutatum produced more conidia when the fungus grew 
                         under white and red light. F. fujikuroi produced more conidia in 
                         the dark. The tolerances to UV radiation of conidia produced on 
                         different light and dark treatments differed for both C. acutatum 
                         and F. fujikuroi. Conidia of C. acutatum were at least 30% more 
                         tolerant to UV radiation when they were produced under white light 
                         than under blue and green light and at least 20% more tolerant 
                         than conidia produced in the dark. Conidia of C. acutatum produced 
                         under red light were the least tolerant. Conidia of F. fujikuroi 
                         produced under white and blue light were at least 30% more UV 
                         tolerant than conidia produced in the dark, green, and red light. 
                         In conclusion, no differences were found for germination and 
                         growth for both fungi under different light regimes and dark; 
                         however, significant differences occurred both in production and 
                         UV radiation of conidia.",
