    Importation of Fresh Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), Shelled or in Pods, from Jordan into the Continental United States A Qualitative, Pathway-Initiated Risk Assessment February 14, 2011 Version 2 Agency Contact: Plant Epidemiology and Risk Analysis Laboratory Center for Plant Health Science and Technology United States Department of Agriculture Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Plant Protection and Quarantine 1730 Varsity Drive, Suite 300 Raleigh, NC 27606 Pest Risk Assessment for Beans from Jordan Executive Summary In this risk assessment we examined the risks associated with the importation of fresh beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), in pods (French, green, snap, and string beans) or shelled, from the Kingdom of Jordan into the continental United States. We developed a list of pests associated with beans (in any country) that occur in Jordan on any host based on scientific literature, previous commodity risk assessments, records of intercepted pests at ports-of-entry, and information from experts on bean production. This is a qualitative risk assessment, as we express estimates of risk in descriptive terms (High, Medium, and Low) rather than numerically in probabilities or frequencies. We identified seven quarantine pests likely to follow the pathway of introduction. We estimated Consequences of Introduction by assessing five elements that reflect the biology and ecology of the pests: climate-host interaction, host range, dispersal potential, economic impact, and environmental impact. We estimated Likelihood of Introduction values by considering both the quantity of the commodity imported annually and the potential for pest introduction and establishment. We summed the Consequences of Introduction and Likelihood of Introduction values to estimate overall Pest Risk Potentials, which describe risk in the absence of mitigation.

Cheatgrass stand failures have been observed throughout the invaded region, the cause of which may be related to the presence of several species of pathogenic fungi in the soil or surface litter.

Abstract: The new genus Morinagamyces is introduced herein to accommodate the fungus Apiosordaria vermicularis as inferred from a phylogenetic study based on sequences of the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), the nuclear rDNA large subunit (LSU), and partial fragments of ribosomal polymerase II subunit 2 (rpb2) and β-tubulin (tub2) genes. Morinagamyces vermicularis was analyzed for the production of secondary metabolites, resulting in the isolation of a new depsipeptide named morinagadepsin (1), and the already known chaetone B (3). While the planar structure of 1 was elucidated by extensive 1D- and 2D-NMR analysis and high-resolution mass spectrometry, the absolute configuration of the building blocks Ala, Val, and Leu was determined as -L by Marfey’s method.

Richter An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University Program in Ecology in the Graduate School of Duke University 2009 Copyright by Michelle Heather Hersh 2009 Abstract Fungal pathogens likely play an important role in regulating populations of tree seedlings and preserving forest diversity, due to their ubiquitous presence and differential effects on survival. Host-specific mortality from natural enemies is one of the most widely tested hypotheses in community ecology to explain the high biodiversity of forests. The effects of fungal pathogens on seedling survival are usually discussed under the framework of the Janzen-Connell (JC) hypothesis, which posits that seedlings are more likely to survive when dispersed far from the parent tree or at low densities due to pressure from host-specific pathogens (Janzen 1970, Connell 1971).

Even though it is well-known that the majority of arctic plants are associated with their symbiotic fungi, how fungal community composition will be different with climate warming remains largely unknown. In this study, we addressed the effects of long-term (18 years) experimental warming on the community composition and taxonomic richness of soil ascomycetes in dry and moist tundra types. Using deep Ion Torrent sequencing we quantified how OTU assemblage and richness of different orders of Ascomycota changed in response to summer warming. Experimental warming significantly altered ascomycete communities with stronger responses observed in the moist tundra compared to dry tundra. The proportion of several lichenized and moss-associated fungi decreased with warming, while the proportion of several plant and insect pathogens and saprotrophic species was higher in the warming treatment. The observed alterations in both taxonomic and ecological groups of ascomycetes are discussed in relation to previously reported warming-induced shifts in arctic plant communities, including decline in lichens and bryophytes and increase in coverage and biomass of shrubs.

Invasive plants may benefit from reduced pathogen impact when competing with native plants, but suffer if mutualists are unavailable. Root samples of the invasive dune grass Ammophila arenaria and the native dune grass Leymus mollis were collected from a Californian foredune. We utilised the Illumina MiSeq platform to sequence the ITS and LSU gene regions, with the SSU region used to target arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). The two plant species largely share a fungal community, which is dominated by widespread generalists.

Journal of Cave and Karst Studies, v. 78, no. 3, p. 139–143. DOI: 10.4311/2015LSC0145 INFLUENCE OF PIT TAGS ON GROWTH AND SURVIVAL OF BANDED SCULPIN (COTTUS CAROLINAE): IMPLICATIONS FOR ENDANGERED GROTTO SCULPIN (COTTUS SPECUS) 1 2 JACOB FERNHOLZ * AND QUINTON E. PHELPS Abstract: To make appropriate restoration decisions, fisheries scientists must be knowledgeable about life history, population dynamics, and ecological role of a species of interest. However, acquisition of such information is considerably more challenging for species with low abundance and that occupy difficult to sample habitats. One such species that inhabits areas that are difficult to sample is the recently listed endangered, cave-dwelling grotto sculpin, Cottus specus. To understand more about the grotto sculpin’s ecological function and quantify its population demographics, a mark-recapture study is warranted. However, the effects of PIT tagging on grotto sculpin are unknown, so a passive integrated transponder (PIT) tagging study was performed. Banded sculpin, Cottus carolinae, were used as a surrogate for grotto sculpin due to genetic and morphological similarities. Banded sculpin were implanted with 8.3 3 1.4 mm and 12.0 3 2.15 mm PIT tags to determine tag retention rates, growth, and mortality. Our results suggest sculpin species of the genus Cottus implanted with 8.3 3 1.4 mm tags exhibited higher growth, survival, and tag retention rates than those implanted with 12.0 3 2.15 mm tags.

  • Savoryellales (Hypocreomycetidae, Sordariomycetes): a Novel Lineage
    Mycologia, 103(6), 2011, pp. 1351–1371. DOI: 10.3852/11-102 # 2011 by The Mycological Society of America, Lawrence, KS 66044-8897 Savoryellales (Hypocreomycetidae, Sordariomycetes): a novel lineage of aquatic ascomycetes inferred from multiple-gene phylogenies of the genera Ascotaiwania, Ascothailandia, and Savoryella Nattawut Boonyuen1 Canalisporium) formed a new lineage that has Mycology Laboratory (BMYC), Bioresources Technology invaded both marine and freshwater habitats, indi- Unit (BTU), National Center for Genetic Engineering cating that these genera share a common ancestor and Biotechnology (BIOTEC), 113 Thailand Science and are closely related.

The genera Savoryella and Bangkok 10900, Thailand Ascothailandia are monophyletic, while the position Charuwan Chuaseeharonnachai of Ascotaiwania is unresolved. All three genera are Satinee Suetrong phylogenetically related and form a distinct clade Veera Sri-indrasutdhi similar to the unclassified group of marine ascomy- Somsak Sivichai cetes comprising the genera Swampomyces, Torpedos- E.B.
