  • Chapter 11 Marine Fungi Associated with Antarctic Macroalgae
    Chapter 11 Marine Fungi Associated with Antarctic Macroalgae Mayara B. Ogaki, Maria T. de Paula, Daniele Ruas, Franciane M. Pellizzari, César X. García-Laviña, and Luiz H. Rosa Abstract Fungi are well known for their important roles in terrestrial ecosystems, but filamentous and yeast forms are also active components of microbial communi- ties from marine ecosystems. Marine fungi are particularly abundant and relevant in coastal systems where they can be found in association with large organic substrata, like seaweeds. Antarctica is a rather unexplored region of the planet that is being influenced by strong and rapid climate change. In the past decade, several efforts have been made to get a thorough inventory of marine fungi from different environ- ments, with a particular emphasis on those associated with the large communities of seaweeds that abound in littoral and infralittoral ecosystems. The algicolous fungal communities obtained were characterized by a few dominant species and a large number of singletons, as well as a balance among endemic, indigenous, and cold-­ adapted cosmopolitan species. The long-term monitoring of this balance and the dynamics of richness, dominance, and distributional patterns of these algicolous fungal communities is proposed to understand and model the influence of climate change on the maritime Antarctic biota. In addition, several fungal isolates from marine Antarctic environments have shown great potential as producers of bioactive natural products and enzymes and may represent attractive sources of biotechno- logical products.

Department of BOTANY The University of British Columbia 2075 Wesbrook Place Vancouver, Canada V6T 1W5 AUG. 31, 1981 Date i i ABSTRACT A search for members of the genus Leucospor idium (Ustilaginaceae) in and near southern British Columbia has yielded 147 isolates of L. scotti i, and a single isolate of an undescribed species with apparent affinities in the genus. L. scott i i was primarily found on decaying marine vegetation and driftwood, but isolates were also obtained from stream foam, snow, a decaying turnip root, bark mulch, and rain- derived stem flow over the trunk of a living tree. The species predominated in laboratory incubations of marine algal materials collected in the winter, spring, and late autumn.

  • The Isolation and Characterization of Resident Yeasts from the Phylloplane of Arabidopsis Thaliana Received: 12 July 2016 Kai Wang, Timo P
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The isolation and characterization of resident yeasts from the phylloplane of Arabidopsis thaliana Received: 12 July 2016 Kai Wang, Timo P. Sipilä & Kirk Overmyer Accepted: 23 November 2016 The genetic model plant Arabidopsis thaliana (arabidopsis) has been instrumental to recent advances in Published: 22 December 2016 our understanding of the molecular function of the plant immune system. However, this work has not yet included plant associated and phytopathogenic yeasts largely due to a lack of yeast species known to interact with arabidopsis. The plant phylloplane is a significant habitat for neutral-residents, plant- growth and health-promoting species, and latent-pathogenic species. However, yeast phylloplane residents of arabidopsis remain underexplored. To address this, resident yeasts from the phyllosphere of wild arabidopsis collected in field conditions have been isolated and characterized. A total of 95 yeast strains representing 23 species in 9 genera were discovered, including potentially psychrophilic and pathogenic strains. Physiological characterization revealed thermotolerance profiles, sensitivity to the arabidopsis phytoalexin camalexin, the production of indolic compounds, and the ability to activate auxin responses in planta. These results indicate a rich diversity of yeasts present in the arabidopsis phylloplane and have created culture resources and information useful in the development of model systems for arabidopsis-yeast interactions. Plants constantly interact with a large number of microorganisms, including bacteria, oomycetes, filamentous fungi, and yeasts. Bacteria are the best studied plant-associated microbes and yeasts have received the least atten- tion. These microbes colonize all plant surfaces, where each plant compartment or structure has its own distinct microbiome.

  • Fungicide Effects on Fungal Community Composition in the Wheat Phyllosphere
    Fungicide Effects on Fungal Community Composition in the Wheat Phyllosphere Ida Karlsson1*, Hanna Friberg2, Christian Steinberg3, Paula Persson1 1 Dept. of Crop Production Ecology, Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU), Uppsala, Sweden, 2 Dept. of Forest Mycology and Plant Pathology, SLU, Uppsala, Sweden, 3 INRA, UMR 1347 Agroe´cologie, Pole IPM, Dijon, France Abstract The fungicides used to control diseases in cereal production can have adverse effects on non-target fungi, with possible consequences for plant health and productivity. This study examined fungicide effects on fungal communities on winter wheat leaves in two areas of Sweden. High-throughput 454 sequencing of the fungal ITS2 region yielded 235 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) at the species level from the 18 fields studied. It was found that commonly used fungicides had moderate but significant effect on fungal community composition in the wheat phyllosphere. The relative abundance of several saprotrophs was altered by fungicide use, while the effect on common wheat pathogens was mixed. The fungal community on wheat leaves consisted mainly of basidiomycete yeasts, saprotrophic ascomycetes and plant pathogens. A core set of six fungal OTUs representing saprotrophic species was identified. These were present across all fields, although overall the difference in OTU richness was large between the two areas studied.

Bauerago (with B. abstrusa on Juncus as the type species) is a small genus in the Microbotryales. Its species infect plants belonging to three, monocotyledonous families, Commelinaceae (Commelina and Tinantia), Juncaceae (Juncus and Luzula), and Cyperaceae (Cyperus). Th ere are four Bauerago species on hosts in the Commelinaceae (three species on Commelina and one on Tinantia). Bauerago commelinae on Commelina communis was studied by molecular and morphological methods. Phylogenetic analyses using rDNA (ITS, LSU, and SSU) sequences indicate that B. commelinae does not cluster with other species of Bauerago on Juncaceae. For accommodation of this smut fungus in the Microbotryaceae, a new genus, Kalmanago, is introduced, with four new combinations: Kalmanago commelinae (Kom.) Denchev et al., K. combensis (Vánky) T.
