One of the following statements is not true? O a. The exoantigens technique reduces for exposure to biohazardous fungi O b. The presences or absence of specific AB's may not have diagnostic value in situation of a preexisting humoral response rather than pathological lesions related to active diseases. O c. The exoantigens is not useful for determining's fungi taxonomic relatedness O d. it is difficult to make an exact fungal diagnosis by immunological reaction because of common antigens in two different fungi species

Microtaxonomy (Species and Speciation) Colletotrichum gloeosporioides is a fungus that causes mango anthracnose. It's a devastating disease being avoided by mango farmers. For example, in the island province of Guimaras, Philippines, one cannot bring mango into the island to avoid contamination of the mango plantations. Guimaras produces the sweetest mango in the world. One challenge in the control of mango anthracnose is that C. gloeosporioides is a species complex. What is a complex and how do we provide clear delineation (if we can) among these closely related species?
