Ontario Species at Risk Evaluation Report for Tri-Colored Bat
Ontario Species at Risk Evaluation Report for Tri-colored Bat (Perimyotis subflavus) Committee on the Status of Species at Risk in Ontario (COSSARO) Assessed by COSSARO as Endangered June, 2015 Final Pipistrelle de l’Est (Perimyotis subflavus) La pipistrelle de l’Est (Perimyotis subflavus) est l’une des plus petites chauves-souris en Amérique du Nord. Environ 10 p. 100 de son aire de répartition mondiale se situe au Canada (en Ontario, au Québec, au Nouveau-Brunswick et en Nouvelle-Écosse) et elle est considérée rare dans la majeure partie de son aire de répartition canadienne. En Ontario, elle est considérée peu courante, bien que la taille des populations ne soit pas bien connue. La pipistrelle de l’Est se nourrit d’insectes. Elle s’alimente au-dessus de l’eau, le long des cours d’eau ainsi qu’à la lisière des forêts; elle évite généralement les grands champs ouverts ou les zones de coupe à blanc. À l’automne, les chauves-souris reviennent aux gîtes d’hibernation, qui peuvent être à des centaines de kilomètres de distance de leurs sites d’été. Elles s’agglutinent près de l’entrée, elles s’accouplent, puis elles pénètrent dans ce gîte d’hibernation ou elles se déplacent vers un gîte différent pour y passer l’hiver. La femelle produit un ou deux petits par année après l’âge d’un an et la longévité maximale consignée est de 15 ans. La principale menace qui pèse sur la pipistrelle de l’Est est une maladie appelée le syndrome du museau blanc (SMB), qui est causé par l’introduction du champignon Pseudogymnoascus destructans.

Fungal Sampling of a Maternity Roost of Big Brown Bats (Eptesicus Fuscus) on the Baca National Wildlife Refuge
Fungal sampling of a maternity roost of Big Brown Bats (Eptesicus fuscus) on the Baca National Wildlife Refuge. Erin M Lehmer, Stephen Fenster & Kirk Navo Background The initial research was focused on sampling fungal community diversity on the migratory Mexican free-tailed bat (Tadarida brasiliensis) population from the Orient Mine upon arrival and prior to departure from Colorado. However, in June 2015 because of cold spring temperatures and higher than average precipitation, arrival of the free-tailed population was delayed, and we were unable to capture bats after repeated sampling efforts. Because of these failed efforts, it was decided to move to the nearby Baca National Wildlife Refuge in an attempt to capture resident (i.e. non-migratory) bats, using a stacked mist net system. During the single night of sampling at the Baca NWR, we captured 32 adult female big brown bats (Eptesicus fuscus) from a single maternity roost located in the attic of an abandoned outbuilding on the refuge property. These bats were processed in the same manner that we had processed the free-tailed bats in previous seasons; after capture, they were weighed, sex and reproductive condition were determined, and forearm lengths were measured. Fungal spores were collected by swabbing the wing membranes and dorsal and ventral fur with sterile cotton swabs dipped in sterile water. During routine processing of the fungal spores (i.e. culturing, PCR and DNA sequence barcoding analysis), we determined that 2 of the samples were a very close genetic match to P. destructans based on sequence alignment data of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the genome.

Wheat Blast Magnaporthe Oryzae (Catt.) (Synonym to Pyricularia Oryzae Cavara 1892)
Wheat blast Magnaporthe oryzae (Catt.) (synonym to Pyricularia oryzae Cavara 1892) Taxonomy & Description Kingdom: Fungi Phylum: Ascomycota Class: Sordariomycetes Order: Magnaporthales Family: Magnaporthaceae Genus: Magnaporthe Species: Magnaporthe oryzae Kansas state university CIMMYT Field symptoms of wheat blast (Magnaporthe oryzae) Pathotypes: Pyricularia, the anamorphic name for the fungus, was established by Saccardo (1880) based on the pyriform shape of the asexual conidia of P. grisea on crabgrass. In 1892, Cavara designated rice isolates as P. oryzae. Sprague (1950) applied Pyricularia species names based on host, with P. oryzae for rice isolates and P. grisea for isolates from all other cereals and grasses. This back and forth for genus and species names explains why the rice and wheat blast pathogens are commonly referred to in the blast literature as Pyricularia or Magnaporthe, each with species identifiers of grisea or oryzae. Magnaporthe was chosen as the official name and Pyricularia as the synonym, and both names will continue to be used. There are a number of subpopulations or pathotypes within M. oryzae based on host they attack. There is the Oryza pathotype (MoO) specific to rice, the Triticum pathotype (MoT) specific to wheat, the Eleusine pathotype (MoE) specific to finger millet, Setaria pathotype (MoS) specific to foxtail millet and the Lolium pathotype (MoL) specific to turf grasses. The original rice blast disease caused by the MoO population appears to have arisen from a host jump from Setaria pathogens around the time rice was domesticated ~7000 years ago. The wheat pathogen in Brazil was originally suggested to have jumped from rice because blast was endemic in rice produced in northern Paraná state in 1985.

The Phylogeny of Plant and Animal Pathogens in the Ascomycota
Physiological and Molecular Plant Pathology (2001) 59, 165±187 doi:10.1006/pmpp.2001.0355, available online at http://www.idealibrary.com on MINI-REVIEW The phylogeny of plant and animal pathogens in the Ascomycota MARY L. BERBEE* Department of Botany, University of British Columbia, 6270 University Blvd, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z4, Canada (Accepted for publication August 2001) What makes a fungus pathogenic? In this review, phylogenetic inference is used to speculate on the evolution of plant and animal pathogens in the fungal Phylum Ascomycota. A phylogeny is presented using 297 18S ribosomal DNA sequences from GenBank and it is shown that most known plant pathogens are concentrated in four classes in the Ascomycota. Animal pathogens are also concentrated, but in two ascomycete classes that contain few, if any, plant pathogens. Rather than appearing as a constant character of a class, the ability to cause disease in plants and animals was gained and lost repeatedly. The genes that code for some traits involved in pathogenicity or virulence have been cloned and characterized, and so the evolutionary relationships of a few of the genes for enzymes and toxins known to play roles in diseases were explored. In general, these genes are too narrowly distributed and too recent in origin to explain the broad patterns of origin of pathogens. Co-evolution could potentially be part of an explanation for phylogenetic patterns of pathogenesis. Robust phylogenies not only of the fungi, but also of host plants and animals are becoming available, allowing for critical analysis of the nature of co-evolutionary warfare. Host animals, particularly human hosts have had little obvious eect on fungal evolution and most cases of fungal disease in humans appear to represent an evolutionary dead end for the fungus.

Bats infected with this fungus present with powdery conidia and hyphae on their muzzles, wing membranes, and/or pinnae, leading to description of the accompanying disease as white-nose syndrome, a cause of widespread mortality among hibernating bats in the northeastern US. Based on rRNA gene sequence (ITS and SSU) characters the fungus is placed in the genus Geomyces, yet its distinctive asymmetrically curved conidia are unlike those of any described Geomyces species. Key words — Ascomycota, Helotiales, Pseudogymnoascus, psychrophilic, systematics Introduction Bat white-nose syndrome (WNS) was ﬁrst documented in a photograph taken at Howes Cave, 52 km west of Albany, NY USA during winter, 2006 (Blehert et al. 2009). As of March 2009, WNS has been conﬁrmed by gross and histologic examination of bats at caves and mines in Massachusetts, New Jersey, Vermont, West Virginia, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Virginia, and Pennsylvania.

Ericaceae Root Associated Fungi Revealed by Culturing and Culture – Independent Molecular Methods
a Ericaceae root associated fungi revealed by culturing and culture – independent molecular methods. by Damian S. Bougoure BSc (Hons) Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Horticulture and Plant Sciences University of Western Sydney February 2006 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Although I am credited with writing this thesis there is a multitude of people that have contributed to its completion in ways other than hitting the letters on a keyboard and I would like to thank them here. Firstly I’d like to thank my supervisor, Professor John Cairney, whose knowledge and guidance was invaluable in steering me along the PhD path. The timing of John’s ‘motivational chats’ was uncanny and his patience particularly, during the writing stage, seemed limitless at times. I’d also like to thank the Australian government for granting me an Australian Postgraduate Award (APA) scholarship, Paul Worden from Macquarie University and the staff from the Millennium Institute at Westmead Hospital for performing DNA sequencing and the National Parks and Wildlife Service of New South Wales and Environmental Protection agency of Queensland for permission to collect the Ericaceae plants. Thankyou to Mary Gandini from James Cook University for showing me the path to a Rhododendron lochiae population through the thick North Queenland rainforest. Without her help and I’d still be pointing the GPS at the sky. Thankyou to the other people in the lab studying mycorrhizas including Catherine Hitchcock, Susan Chambers, Adrienne Williams and particularly Brigitte Bastias with whom I shared an office. Everyone mentioned was generally just as willing as I was to talk about matters other than mycorrhizas.

www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A common partitivirus infection in United States and Czech Republic isolates of bat white‑nose syndrome fungal pathogen Pseudogymnoascus destructans Ping Ren1,2*, Sunanda S. Rajkumar1,10, Tao Zhang3, Haixin Sui4,5, Paul S. Masters5,6, Natalia Martinkova 7, Alena Kubátová 8, Jiri Pikula 9, Sudha Chaturvedi1,5 & Vishnu Chaturvedi 1,5* The psychrophilic (cold‑loving) fungus Pseudogymnoascus destructans was discovered more than a decade ago to be the pathogen responsible for white-nose syndrome, an emerging disease of North American bats causing unprecedented population declines. The same species of fungus is found in Europe but without associated mortality in bats. We found P. destructans was infected with a mycovirus [named Pseudogymnoascus destructans partitivirus 1 (PdPV-1)]. The virus is bipartite, containing two double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) segments designated as dsRNA1 and dsRNA2. The cDNA sequences revealed that dsRNA1 dsRNA is 1,683 bp in length with an open reading frame (ORF) that encodes 539 amino acids (molecular mass of 62.7 kDa); dsRNA2 dsRNA is 1,524 bp in length with an ORF that encodes 434 amino acids (molecular mass of 46.9 kDa). The dsRNA1 ORF contains motifs representative of RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), whereas the dsRNA2 ORF sequence showed homology with the putative capsid proteins (CPs) of mycoviruses. Phylogenetic analyses with PdPV-1 RdRp and CP sequences indicated that both segments constitute the genome of a novel virus in the family Partitiviridae. The purifed virions were isometric with an estimated diameter of 33 nm. Reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) and sequencing revealed that all US isolates and a subset of Czech Republic isolates of P.
