The study shows that the phytopathogenic fungus Cytospora cincta Sacc. is indifferent to the action of total visible light during mycelial growth. Its photosensitivity changes significantly under different wavelengths. The strongest effects were observed in the blue and red regions of the spectrum. The formation of mycelium and pycnidia varies depending on the quality of the irradiation.
