Abstract Background: Current tools for Co-phylogenetic analyses are not able to cope with the continuous accumulation of phylogenetic data. The sophisticated statistical test for host-parasite co-phylogenetic analyses implemented in Parafit does not allow it to handle large datasets in reasonable times. The Parafit and DistPCoA programs are the by far most compute-intensive components of the Parafit analysis pipeline.

Szafer Institute of Botany, Polish Academy of Sciences, Lubicz 46, PL-31-512 Kraków, Poland e-mail: [email protected] Abstract The new smut fungus, Anthracoidea transberingiana attacking ovaries of Carex pauciflora, is described and illustrated from Beringia (Alaska and Kamchatka). The new species is compared with Anthracoidea caricis-pauciflorae infecting the same host plant species predominantly in northern Europe, from which it differs in having smaller spores, thinner spore walls, 2–3 weakly visible internal swellings and somewhat less prominent spore ornamentation. Key words: Anthracoideaceae, Cyperaceae, plant pathogens, smut fungi, Ustilaginales Introduction The few-flowered sedge Carex pauciflora Lightfoot (1777: 543) is a circumpolar species, widely distributed in arctic, boreal and montane ecosystems of North America, Europe and Asia where it occurs mostly on the Sphagnum bogs or different kinds of acidic peat soils (Chater 1980, Hultén & Fries 1986, Egorova 1999, Cochrane 2002). In northern Europe, the few-flowered sedge is rarely infected by the ovary smut Anthracoidea caricis-pauciflorae (Lehtola 1940: 127) Kukkonen (1963: 74). This smut species was also reported from two extra-European stations, namely British Colombia in North America (Kukkonen 1963) and Kamchatka in Asia (Karatygin & Azbukina 1989). In the European and world smut monographs, Vánky (1994, 2012) reported that A. caricis-pauciflorae occurs in northern Europe, northern North America and north-east Asia.

Abstract: This is the first publication dedicated to the diversity of smut fungi in Panama based on field work, the study of herbarium specimens, and references taken from literature. It includes smuts parasitizing cultivated and wild plants. The latter are mostly found in rural vegetation. Among the 24 species cited here, 14 species are recorded for the first time for Panama. One of them, Sporisorium ovarium, is observed for the first time in Central America. Entyloma spilanthis is found on the host species Acmella papposa var. macrophylla (Asteraceae) for the first time. Entyloma costaricense and Entyloma ecuadorense are considered synonyms of Entyloma compositarum and Entyloma spilanthis respectively. For the new conbination Sponsorium panamensis see note at the end of this publication. Descriptions of the species are complemented by some illustrations, a checklist, and a key.

    Fungal Diversity Cintractiellaceae fam. nov. (Ustilaginomycetes) Kálmán Vánky∗ Herbarium Ustilaginales Vánky (HUV), Gabriel-Biel-Str. 5, D-72076 Tübingen, Germany; e- mail: [email protected] Vánky, K. (2003). Cintractiellaceae fam. nov. (Ustilaginomycetes). Fungal Diversity 13: 167- 173. A new family, Cintractiellaceae, is proposed to accommodate the two peculiar smut fungi in the genus Cintractiella, C. diplasiae and C. lamii. Key words: Cintractiella, Cintractiella diplasiae, Cintractiella lamii, Cyperaceae, Hypolytreae, Mapanioideae, smut fungi, taxonomy Introduction The classification of smut fungi and allied taxa has changed radically since publication of a paper by Bauer et al. (1997). Application of modern methods (ultrastructural studies and molecular analyses), has opened the way towards a better, phylogenetical classification, in which surprising relationships have become evident. The results were published, i.a., in: Begerow et al. (1997/1998), Swann et al. (1999), Piepenbring et al. (1999), Bauer et al. (1999a,b, 2001), Vánky (1999b, 2000, 2001a), Begerow et al. (2000) and summarised by Bauer et al. (1998, 2000), Vánky (1999a, 2001b, 2002a,b). The classification of the smut fungi is, however, not settled. Molecular analyses, classical, morphological investigations, studies of the parasites correlated with the systematics of their host plants, as well as new discoveries will certainly increase the number of higher taxa of smut fungi (Microbotryales and Ustilaginomycetes). At present, the ca. 1450 known "classical" smut fungi (those possessing teliospores), are classified into two classes, three subclasses, 8 orders, 26 families and 77 genera (Vánky, 2002b). To these, the new family for the genus Cintractiella Boedijn should also be added. ∗Corresponding author: K. Vánky, e-mail: [email protected] 167 The genus Cintractiella Leaves of a Hypolytrum sp.

Leucocintractia scleriae is reported for the fi rst time from Japan. Key words: Anthracoideaceae, Asia, Cyperaceae, Japan, Leucocintractia, Rhynchospora corymbosa, smut fungi, taxonomy, Ustilaginales Introduction Species of Rhynchospora (Cyperaceae) are distributed worldwide, with greatest diversity in tropical and subtropical regions (mainly in the American savannas). With about 350 species, it is the third-largest cyperaceous genus (Lucero et al. 2014). Eleven Rhynchospora species are known to be distributed in Japan (Hokkaido, Honshu, Shikoku, Kyushu, Ogasawara Islands, and Ryukyu Islands) (Hoshino et al. 2011). Th irty species of smut fungi, belonging to Cintractia, Kuntzeomyces, Leucocintractia, Moreaua, Testicularia, Trichocintractia, and Ustanciosporium, are recognized on Rhynchospora (Vánky 2010, 2011a, b; Denchev & Denchev 2015). Th e members of Leucocintractia form cylindrical sori around all the pedunculi of an infl orescence or around internodes of the stem of host plants of Rhynchospora.

Bai, [email protected]; T. Boekhout, [email protected] Abstract: The subphylum Ustilaginomycotina (Basidiomycota, Fungi) comprises mainly plant pathogenic fungi (smuts). Some of the lineages possess cultivable uni- cellular stages that are usually classified as yeast or yeast-like species in a largely artificial taxonomic system which is independent from and largely incompatible with that of the smut fungi. Here we performed phylogenetic analyses based on seven genes including three nuclear ribosomal RNA genes and four protein coding genes to address the molecular phylogeny of the ustilaginomycetous yeast species and their filamentous counterparts. Taxonomic revisions were proposed to reflect this phylogeny and to implement the ‘One Fungus = One Name’ principle. The results confirmed that the yeast-containing classes Malasseziomycetes, Moniliellomycetes and Ustilaginomycetes are monophyletic, whereas Exobasidiomycetes in the current sense remains paraphyletic. Four new genera, namely Dirkmeia gen. nov., Kalma- nozyma gen. nov., Golubevia gen. nov. and Robbauera gen.

  • Discovery of Biologically Active Fungal Metabolites Resulting from An
    AMC 2019 Plenary Lecture 1 PL1 Discovery of biologically active fungal metabolites resulting from an international, interdisciplinary research scenario Marc Stadler Helmholtz-Centre for Infection Research, Germany Over the past years, we have been able to build up a sustainable, international network with leading researchers from all over the world to explore systematically the mycobiota of tropical countries for their potential to produce novel chemical entities with potential to combat infectious diseases. In addition, we have targeted rare European species that are difficult to culture. Over the past 5 years, these activities have resulted in the discovery of over 150 new bioactive metabolites that were published in over 50 original publications. The key to the success of these projects was actually the collaboration of chemists with leading taxonomists and other biodiversity researchers. Most of the new compounds were isolated from new genera and species that were concurrently discovered in the course of taxonomic studies. Some of the new metabolites discovered have substantial potential for application, even though their evaluation is still in a rather early stage and it may take a long time and substantial efforts and additional funding until they even reach preclinical development. The strategy of this approach will be outlined, also including some highlights from our recent research in an international, interdisciplinary scenario. Asian Mycological Congress 2019 AMC 2019 Plenary Lecture 2 PL2 Cordyceps and cordycipitoid fungi Xingzhong Liu Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China Cordyceps historically comprised over 400 species and some of them are used extensively in traditional Chinese medicine.
