Cercospora is a parasitic and cause leaf spot or tikka disease of economically important plants. C. apii is a human pathogen and may cause several lesions on the face
In cercospra, mycelium is well developed, branched, intercellular and septate. The hyphae when young are hyaline but later turn brown. Intercellular hyphae produce lobed haustoria.

In C. arachidicola the mycelium is both external and internal and becomes intracellular after the death of the host cells. At maturity some of the hyphae aggregate to form brown to black colour globular mass in the sub-stomatal cavity or beneath the epidermis of the host leaf. It is called stroma
Cercospora reproduces only by means of conidia. A tuft of conidiophores emerge either through stomata
