University of Southern Queensland – Bsc. (Hons) Thesis Jed Calvert U1098952 Supervisor University of Southern Queensland – BSc. (Hons) Thesis Jed Calvert U1098952 Su$ervisor% Dr John &earnaley 2017 1 Cover i(a)e sho*s hy$hae of an endophytic fungus (+$iognomonia s$., isolate -. 2.1.# cultured from roots of the native Australian orchid Bul/o$hyllu( e0iguu() gro*in) against the inside of an agar plate. Bar is 50μm. # +/stract Throughout their life cycles orchids are reliant on inorganic nutrients $rovided /y mutualistic orchid mycorrhi2al fungi (345), to *hich the $lants allocate sugars $roduced in $hotosynthesis. 3rchid seeds usually re6uire a fungal $artner to facilitate their germination, and sometimes a se6uence of fungal s$ecies to $romote their growth to maturity. 3rchid mycorrhi2al (3M) relationshi$s can /e very s$ecific, with e$i$hytic/lithophytic (tree/roc8 d*elling) orchids often associating *ith a narrow range of fungi. Additionally, closely-related grou$s of orchids tend to share common associations *ith the same lineages of fungi. The genus Bul/ophyllu( is the largest in the 3rchidaceae (:2000 s$$.) /ut no study to date has investigated mycorrhi2al associations of Bul/ophyllum in Australia. ;n this study, fungi *ere isolated from the roots of the native orchids B. e0i)uu(, B. /racteatu(, B. minutissimu(, B. elisae and B. she$herdii at 7 sites in south-east Queensland. 5ungi *ere identified /ased on internal transcri/ed s$acer (;TS) gene se6uences to determine *hether these congeneric orchids share 345 $artners. Analysis of orchid <uBisC3 large su/unit (rbcL) gene se6uences *as also $erformed to ascertain $hylogenetic relationshi$s, and sy(/iotic seed germination of B. e0iguum *as tested using 4 fungal inocula. ;n all, 90 fungal isolates *ere obtained. Molecular identification revealed a diversity of $utatively mycorrhi2al fungi from the 345 genera Tulasnella, Serendi$ita and Ceratobasidiu(, and dark se$tate endophytes (&S?s) from the ascomycete order Helotiales. Significantly, 3 orchid s$$. (B. e0iguu(, B. /racteatum and B. elisae) across 3 sites *ere found to harbour a single Tulasnella s$. that is li8ely ne* to science. This indicated narrow 345 s$ecificity and suggested that these orchids may /elong to a common su/-clade *ithin Bul/ophyllu(, an observation su$$orted /y $hylogenetic analysis of rbcL genes and /y taxonomic reassignments that have /een $roposed /ased solely on morphological features. B. e0iguum *as found to harbour an undescri/ed Serendi$ita s$. that *arrants investigation as a $otential agricultural inoculum. B. she$herdii harboured a Ceratobasidium s$. $reviously found in Norway, /ut the $lant sampled in this study had /een relocated from nearby *oodland and thus may not usually associate *ith this 345. ;solation of &S? helotialean fungi *ith highest BLAST matches to ericoid mycorrhi2al (?rM) se6uences $ointed to a $ossi/le 345 role for these isolates, however further confirmation is needed to establish *hether intracellular nutrient-e0change structures are $resent. The $resence of ?rM-li8e fungi associated *ith orchids su$$orts recent *ork suggesting a /lurring of functional /oundaries /et*een mycorrhi2al ty$es. B. e0iguum seed germination e0$eriments *ere i($eded /y overgrowth of fungal contaminants, *hich *ere li8ely endophytes from seed $od tissue, and /y $oorly-developed seeds that may have resulted from in/reeding. 5uture studies *ith seed germination $rotocols optimised for very small $ods are needed to ascertain *hether fungal sy(/ionts can stimulate germination in these Bul/ophyllum s$$. These results $rovide evidence for narrow 345 s$ecificity for Tulasnella in some S? Queensland Bul/ophyllu( s$$. and further raise the intriguing possi/ility of DS? forming mycorrhi2as *ith orchids. &eclaration ; certify that the *ork re$orted in this thesis is *holly my own e0ce$t *here otherwise noted. ; also certify that this *ork is original and has not /een $reviously su/mitted for assessment in any other course of study at any other university.

  • Review of Selected Literature and Epiphyte Classification
    --------- -- ---------· 4 CHAPTER 1 REVIEW OF SELECTED LITERATURE AND EPIPHYTE CLASSIFICATION 1.1 Review of Selected, Relevant Literature (p. 5) Several important aspects of epiphyte biology and ecology that are not investigated as part of this work, are reviewed, particularly those published on more. recently. 1.2 Epiphyte Classification and Terminology (p.11) is reviewed and the system used here is outlined and defined. A glossary of terms, as used here, is given. 5 1.1 Review of Selected, Relevant Li.terature Since the main works of Schimper were published (1884, 1888, 1898), particularly Die Epiphytische Vegetation Amerikas (1888), many workers have written on many aspects of epiphyte biology and ecology. Most of these will not be reviewed here because they are not directly relevant to the present study or have been effectively reviewed by others. A few papers that are keys to the earlier literature will be mentioned but most of the review will deal with topics that have not been reviewed separately within the chapters of this project where relevant (i.e. epiphyte classification and terminology, aspects of epiphyte synecology and CAM in the epiphyt~s). Reviewed here are some special problems of epiphytes, particularly water and mineral availability, uptake and cycling, general nutritional strategies and matters related to these. Also, all Australian works of any substance on vascular epiphytes are briefly discussed. some key earlier papers include that of Pessin (1925), an autecology of an epiphytic fern, which investigated a number of factors specifically related to epiphytism; he also reviewed more than 20 papers written from the early 1880 1 s onwards.

    Biodiversity Summary for NRM Regions Species List What is the summary for and where does it come from? This list has been produced by the Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (SEWPC) for the Natural Resource Management Spatial Information System. The list was produced using the AustralianAustralian Natural Natural Heritage Heritage Assessment Assessment Tool Tool (ANHAT), which analyses data from a range of plant and animal surveys and collections from across Australia to automatically generate a report for each NRM region. Data sources (Appendix 2) include national and state herbaria, museums, state governments, CSIRO, Birds Australia and a range of surveys conducted by or for DEWHA. For each family of plant and animal covered by ANHAT (Appendix 1), this document gives the number of species in the country and how many of them are found in the region. It also identifies species listed as Vulnerable, Critically Endangered, Endangered or Conservation Dependent under the EPBC Act. A biodiversity summary for this region is also available. For more information please see: www.environment.gov.au/heritage/anhat/index.html Limitations • ANHAT currently contains information on the distribution of over 30,000 Australian taxa. This includes all mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish, 137 families of vascular plants (over 15,000 species) and a range of invertebrate groups. Groups notnot yet yet covered covered in inANHAT ANHAT are notnot included included in in the the list. list. • The data used come from authoritative sources, but they are not perfect. All species names have been confirmed as valid species names, but it is not possible to confirm all species locations.

Bell Eastcoast Flora Survey PO Box 216 Kotara Fair, NSW 2289, AUSTRALIA Abstract: Wollemi National Park (c. 32o 20’– 33o 30’S, 150o– 151oE), approximately 100 km north-west of Sydney, conserves over 500 000 ha of the Triassic sandstone environments of the Central Coast and Tablelands of New South Wales, and occupies approximately 25% of the Sydney Basin biogeographical region. 94 taxa of conservation signiicance have been recorded and Wollemi is recognised as an important reservoir of rare and uncommon plant taxa, conserving more than 20% of all listed threatened species for the Central Coast, Central Tablelands and Central Western Slopes botanical divisions. For a land area occupying only 0.05% of these divisions, Wollemi is of paramount importance in regional conservation. Surveys within Wollemi National Park over the last decade have recorded several new populations of signiicant vascular plant species, including some sizeable range extensions. This paper summarises the current status of all rare or threatened taxa, describes habitat and associated species for many of these and proposes IUCN (2001) codes for all, as well as suggesting revisions to current conservation risk codes for some species. For Wollemi National Park 37 species are currently listed as Endangered (15 species) or Vulnerable (22 species) under the New South Wales Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. An additional 50 species are currently listed as nationally rare under the Briggs and Leigh (1996) classiication, or have been suggested as such by various workers. Seven species are awaiting further taxonomic investigation, including Eucalyptus sp.

Abieticola koreana, is described. This xylariaceous fungus was isolated from the inner bark of a Manchurian fir (Abies holophylla) in Korea. Phylogenetic analyses based on the sequences of four gene regions—ITS1-5.8S-ITS2, 28S, β-tubulin, and rpb2—were used to confirm this new genus and species. Key words—Ascomycota, anamorph, multigene, Xylarioideae, Xylariaceae Introduction The Xylariaceae is a large family of ascomycetes comprising approximately 85 genera and at least 1,340 species that are distributed worldwide and exhibit exceptional diversity in the tropics (Whalley 1996, Velmurugan et al. 2013, Stadler et al. 2014). It has been estimated that the Xylariaceae contains 10,000 undescribed species (Stadler 2011, Richardson et al. 2014). Recent phylogenetic studies (Tang et al. 2009, Daranagama et al. 2015) using combined ITS, LSU, rpb2, and β-tubulin sequences, suggested that Xylariaceae has two major lineages, Xylarioideae and Hypoxyloideae. To date, 11 genera of Xylariaceae have been shown to occur as endophytes of various plants (Pažoutová et al.
