Overton, [email protected] Abstract: Morphological studies and phylogenetic analyses of DNA sequences from the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of the nuclear ribosomal gene repeat, a partial sequence of RNA polymerase II subunit (rpb2), and a partial sequence of the large exon of tef1 (LEtef1) were used to investigate the taxonomy and systematics of nine Hypocrea species with anamorphs assignable to Trichoderma sect. Hypocreanum. Hypocrea corticioides and H. sulphurea are reevaluated. Their Trichoderma anamorphs are described and the phylogenetic positions of these species are determined. Hypocrea sulphurea and H. subcitrina are distinct species based on studies of the type specimens. Hypocrea egmontensis is a facultative synonym of the older name H. subcitrina. Hypocrea with anamorphs assignable to Trichoderma sect. Hypocreanum formed a well-supported clade. Five species with anamorphs morphologically similar to sect. Hypocreanum, H. avellanea, H. parmastoi, H. megalocitrina, H. alcalifuscescens, and H. pezizoides, are not located in this clade. Protocrea farinosa belongs to Hypocrea s.s.

Leaf-Associated Shifts in Bacterial and Fungal Communities in Response to Chicken Rearing Under Moso Bamboo Forests in Subtropical China

However, little is known regarding the effect of this integration on the bamboo leaf-associated microbiome, which can be very important for disease control and nutrient turnover. In the present study, we compared the leaf-associated bacterial and fungal communities of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) in a BCF system and an adjacent moso bamboo forest (MBF). The results showed that Cyanobacteria and Ascomycota were the predominant microbial phyla associated with bamboo leaves. Chicken farming under the bamboo forest significantly increased the bacterial and fungal alpha diversity (observed operational taxonomic units (OTUs) and Simpson’s index) associated with bamboo leaves. Principal components analysis (PCoA) further confirmed the shifts in the bacterial and fungal communities caused by chicken farming.

Thyronectria Revisited and Re-Instated
Persoonia 33, 2014: 182–211 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/pimj RESEARCH ARTICLE http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/003158514X685211 Persistent hamathecial threads in the Nectriaceae, Hypocreales: Thyronectria revisited and re-instated W.M. Jaklitsch1, H. Voglmayr1,2 Key words Abstract Based on type studies and freshly collected material we here re-instate the genus Thyronectria (Nec- triaceae, Hypocreales). Species of this genus were recently for the most part classified in the genera Pleonectria act (Nectriaceae) or Mattirolia (Thyridiaceae), because Thyronectria and other genera had been identified as members Ascomycota of the Thyridiaceae due to the presence of paraphyses. Molecular phylogenies based on several markers (act, ITS, Hypocreales LSU rDNA, rpb1, rpb2, tef1, tub) revealed that the Nectriaceae contain members whose ascomata are characterised Mattirolia by long, more or less persistent, apical paraphyses. All of these belong to a single genus, Thyronectria, which thus Nectriaceae has representatives with hyaline, rosy, green or even dark brown and sometimes distoseptate ascospores. The new species type species of Thyronectria, T. rhodochlora, syn. T. patavina, syn. T. pyrrhochlora is re-described and illustrated. Pleonectria Within the Nectriaceae persistent, apical paraphyses are common in Thyronectria and rarely also occur in Nectria. pyrenomycetes The genus Mattirolia is revised and merged with Thyronectria and also Thyronectroidea is regarded as a synonym rpb1 of Thyronectria. The three new species T. asturiensis, T. caudata and T. obscura are added to the genus. Species rpb2 recently described in Pleonectria as well as some species of Mattirolia are combined in the genus, and a key to tef1 Thyronectria is provided. Five species are epitypified.

Editor: Ian C Anderson ABSTRACT Fungal communities in Norway spruce (Picea abies) logs in two forests in Sweden were investigated by 454-sequence analyses and by examining the ecological roles of the detected taxa. We also investigated the relationship between fruit bodies and mycelia in wood and whether community assembly was affected by how the dead wood was formed. Fungal communities were highly variable in terms of phylogenetic composition and ecological roles: 1910 fungal operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were detected; 21% were identified to species level.
