Mycosphere 6(3), 290–326, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/6/3/7 Abstract The Dothideomycetes include several genera whose ascomata can be considered as apothecia and thus would be grouped as discomycetes. Most genera are grouped in the family Patellariaceae, but also Agrynnaceae and other families. The Hysteriales include genera having hysterioid ascomata and can be confused with species in Patellariaceae with discoid apothecia if the opening is wide enough. In this study, genera of the family Patellariaceae were re-examined and characterized based on morphological examination. As a result of this study the genera Baggea, Endotryblidium, Holmiella, Hysteropatella, Lecanidiella, Lirellodisca, Murangium, Patellaria, Poetschia, Rhizodiscina, Schrakia, Stratisporella and Tryblidaria are retained in the family Patellariaceae. The genera Banhegyia, Pseudoparodia and Rhytidhysteron are excluded because of differing morphology and/or molecular data.

  • Subcutaneous Rhytidhysteron Infection: a Case Report from South India with Literature Review
    Open Access Case Report DOI: 10.7759/cureus.2406 Subcutaneous Rhytidhysteron Infection: A Case Report from South India with Literature Review Nagaraja Mudhigeti 1 , Rashmi Patnayak 2 , Usha Kalawat 1 , Spoorthy Rekha C. Yeddula 3 1. Department of Microbiology, Sri Venkateswara Institute of Medical Sciences 2. Pathology, IMS & SUM Hospital 3. Department of Pathology, Sri Venkateswara Institute of Medical Sciences Corresponding author: Rashmi Patnayak, [email protected] Abstract Rhytidhysteron is a saprophytic dematiaceous fungus which rarely infects humans. Though virtually all individuals are exposed, very few develop the disease. Only seven human cases are reported till date. The present case is the second case from South India. A 40-year-old immunocompetent female agricultural worker, presented with a swelling on the dorsum of the right hand. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of the swelling revealed short, thick, branched septate fungal hyphae. The isolate was moderately slow growing; grayish white colonies were observed on Sabouraud’s Dextrose Agar (SDA) slant. On further incubation, the colonies turned floccose, greyish black and the black pigment was observed on the reverse. Microscopy of lactophenol cotton blue tease mount showed thick, brown septate hyphae without any fruiting bodies. Molecular typing confirmed the isolates as Rhytidhysteron rufulum. Identification of all clinical isolates of nonsporulating fungi to genus level is necessary to identify rare fungi infecting humans. Categories: Pathology, Infectious Disease, Other Keywords: molecular typing of rhytidhysteron, rhytidhysteron, dematiaceous fungus, subcutaneous fungal infection Introduction Rhytidhysteron is a saprophytic dematiaceous fungus usually associated with dead or decaying plant tissues [1]. Rhytidhysteron rufulum is a fungus reported which rarely infects humans [2-7].

Oak St., Champaign, IL 61820 * email: [email protected] Abstract During an inventory of ascomycetes in the semi-arid region of Brazil, one new genus and three new species of hysteriaceous ascomycetes were found. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenetic analyses of the nuclear ribosomal 28S large subunit were performed to investigate the placement of the new taxa within the class Dothideomycetes. Anteaglonium brasiliense is described as a new species within the order Pleosporales, and Graphyllium caracolinense is described as a new species nested inside Hysteriales. Morphological and molecular data support Hysterodifractum as a new monotypic genus in the Hysteriaceae. The type species, H. partisporum, is characterized by navicular, carbonaceous, gregarious hysterothecia and pigmented, fusiform ascospores that disarticulate into 16 ovoid or obovoid, septate, part-spores. This is the first report of a hysteriaceous fungus producing part-spores.

  • Phylogeny, Cospeciation, and Host Switching in the Evolution of the Ascomycete Genus Rhabdocline on Pseudotsuga and Larix (Pinaceae)
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF David S. Gernandt for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Botany and Plant Pathology presented on May 7, 1998. Title: Phylogeny, Cospeciation, and Host Switching in the Evolution of the Ascomycete Genus Rhabdocline on Pseudotsuga and Larix (Pinaceae). Abstract Approved: Redacted for Privacy Jeffrey K. Stone The relative role of cospeciation and host switching in the phylogenetic history of ascomycete foliar symbionts is addressed in the orders Leotiales and Rhytismatales, fungi associated predominantly with Pinaceae (Coniferales). Emphasis is placed on comparing the evolution of the sister genera Pseudotsuga and Larix (Pinaceae) with that of the pathogenic and endophytic fungi in the genus Rhabdocline. Pinaceae evolved during the Mesozoic and divergence of all extant genera and several infrageneric lineages (esp. in Pinus) occurred prior to the Tertiary, with subsequent species radiations following climatic changes of the Eocene. The youngest generic pair to evolve from Pinaceae, Larix and Pseudotsuga, diverged near the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary in East Asia or western North America. Rhabdocline is comprised of seven species and subspecies, six known from two species of Pseudotsuga and one, the asexual species Meria laricis, from three species of Larix. Evidence from host distributions and from nuclear ribosomal DNA suggests that Rhabdocline speciated in western North America and has been involved in several host switches. The ancestor ofMeria laricis appears to have switched from P. menziesii to its current western North American hosts, L. occidentalis, L. lyallii, and very recently may have extended its host range to the European species, L. decidua. The occurrence of two lineages of R.

Crous3,4,5 Key words Abstract Members of the Asterinaceae and Parmulariaceae are obligate biotrophic fungi with a pantropical dis- tribution that grow in direct association with living plant tissues and produce external ascomata and bitunicate asci. Asterinales These fungi are poorly known, with limited information about their taxonomic position in the Dothideomycetes. epitype Much of what is known is conjectural and based on observation of morphological characters. An assessment of Neotropical fungi the phylogenetic position of the Asterinaceae and Parmulariaceae is provided based on a phylogenetic analysis of taxonomic novelties the nrDNA operon (ITS) and the large subunit rDNA (LSU) sequence data obtained from fresh material of selected type species species collected in Brazil. Three key species were included and epitypified, namely Asterina melastomatis, which is the type species for the type genus of the Asterinaceae; Prillieuxina baccharidincola (Asterinaceae); and Parmularia styracis, which is the type species for the type genus of the Parmulariaceae. An LSU rDNA phylogenetic analysis was performed indicating the correct phylogenetic placement of the Asterinales within the Dothideomycetes. From this initial analysis it is clear that the Parmulariaceae as currently circumscribed is polyphyletic, and that the As­ terinaceae and Parmulariaceae are related, which justifies the maintenance of the order Asterinales. Asterotexis cucurbitacearum is recognised as distinct from other Dothideomycetes and placed in the newly proposed family and order (Asterotexiaceae, Asterotexiales), while the higher order phylogeny of Inocyclus angularis remains un- resolved.
