Received 7 November 2017 Among them, T. harzianum, one of the most commonly collected Trichoderma species, had Revised 22 April 2018 been known as a polyphyletic or aggregate species. However, a total of 19 species Accepted 5 May 2018 were determined from the polyphyletic groups of T. harzianum. Thus, we explored Korean “T. harzianum” – KEYWORDS specimens that were collected in 2013 2014. These specimens were re-exam- a a EF1 ; phylogeny; taxonomy; ined based on a recent study with translate elongation factor 1-alpha (EF1 ) sequences to Trichoderma; Trichoderma reveal cryptic Trichoderma species in Korea. As a result, four different species, T. afroharzia- harzianum species complex num, T. atrobruneum, T. pyramidale, and T. harzianum, were identified. Except T. harzianum, the other three species have not been reported in Korea. In this work, we describe these species and provide figures. 1. Introduction species complex [6,11]. In 2015, their cryptic species were re-evaluated by phylogenetic analysis with The genus Trichoderma Persoon (type species: T. translate elongation factor 1-alpha (EF1a) sequences, viride Pers) is a large group of ascomycetous fungi that contains more than 250 species [1]. Some of and they were described as 14 new species [4]. the Trichoderma species are economically important Among them, the well-known biological control because they produce industrial enzymes and antibi- agent T. harzianum T22 was determined to be T. otics [2,3]. They can be applied as biocontrol agents afroharzianum, and the well-known teleomorphic “ ” against plant pathogens [2–4]. Morphologically, species of T. harzianum, Hypocrea lixii Pat. , was their colonies are typically fast-growing and green- re-named to be T. lixii (Pat.) P.

Three out of these a globose [5]. four species were identified with EF1 sequences, T. harzianum Rifai is known as the most common but T. harzianum has not been tested in Korea to species within the genus worldwide [6]. This species create a detailed phylogeny [8,12,13]. Thus, we is commonly found on various substrates such as expected that some Korean cultures identified as “T. soil, wood, and other fungi [2–4,7–9]. Additionally, harzianum” might be different species.

  • Taxonomy and Phylogeny of Gliocladium Analysed from Nuclear Large Subunit Ribosomal DNA Sequences
    Mycol. Res. 98 (6):625-634 (1994) Printed in Great Britain 625 Taxonomy and phylogeny of Gliocladium analysed from nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA sequences STEPHEN A. REHNER AND GARY J. SAMUELS USDA, ARS, Systematic Botany and Mycology Laboratory Room 304, Building OIIA, Beltsville, BARC-W, Maryland 20705, U.SA. The phylogenetic distribution of Gliocladium within the Hypocreales was investigated by parsimony analysis of partial sequences from the nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA (28s rDNA). Two principal monophyletic groups were resolved that included species with anarnorphs classified in Gliocladium. The first clade includes elements of the genera Hypocrea (H. gelatinosa, H. lutea) plus Trichodema, Hypocrea pallida, Hypomyces and Sphaerostilbella, which are each shown to be monophyletic but whose sister group relationships are unresolved with the present data set. Gliocladium anamorphs in this clade include Gliocladium penicillioides, the type species of Gliocladium and anamorph of Sphaerostilbella aureonitens, and Trichodema virens (= G. virens) which is a member of the clade containing Hypocrea and Trichodema. A second clade, consisting of species with pallid perithecia, is grouped around Nectria ochroleuca, whose anamorph is Gliocladium roseum. Other species in this clade having Gliocladium-like anamorphs are Nectriopsis sporangiicola and Roumeguericlla rufula. The species of Nectria represented in this study are polyphyletic and resolved as four separate groups: (1)N. cinnabarina the type species, (2) three species with Fusarium anamorphs including N. albosuccinea, N. haematococca and Gibberella fujikoroi, (3) N. purtonii a species whose anamorph is classified in Fwarium sect. Eupionnofes, and (4) N. ochroleuca, which is representative of species with pallid perithecia. The results indicate that Gliocladium is polyphyletic and that G.

  • Mini-Paper – the Use of Microbial Biocontrol Agents Against Soil-Borne Diseases
    Focus Group SOIL-BORNE DISEASES Mini-paper – The use of microbial biocontrol agents against soil-borne diseases Ilaria Pertot; Claude Alabouvette; Estefanía Hinarejos Esteve; Soraya Franca INTRODUCTION The value of the global biopesticide market is expected to reach $4,556.37 Million by 2019, at a compound annual growth rate of 15.30% from 2014 to 2019 (source: Marketsandmarkets.com, 2014; last access 31/03/2015). The reasons for such growth can be found in: the increasing concerns on the impact of residues and overuse of synthetic chemical pesticides and the increasing relevance of pests and pathogens due to growth in food demand, the withdrawal of several chemical pesticides including soil fumigants, the appearance of new invasive species and pesticide resistant strains of pests, the effect of climate change and the specialised monoculture. The decrease of the cost of several biopesticides, the introduction of technologically advanced products, the increase knowledge of farmers and the strict thresholds in pesticides residues set by many food retailers are also promoting the switch form chemical to biopesticides. In addition in EU the Directive on the Sustainable Use of Pesticides (2009/128/EC) is also expected to stimulate the biopesticide market positively. Some active ingredients have been included in Annex 1 according Regulation EC 1107/2009 and several new others are most probably under development by multinational agrochemical companies following recent acquisitions. According the present regulation if a microorganism has fungicide activity should be registered in order to be applied for such use. The high cost of registration prevents a large number of potential biocontrol agents to reach the market.

  • Biodiversity of Trichoderma in Neotropics
    13 Biodiversity of Trichoderma in Neotropics Lilliana Hoyos-Carvajal1 and John Bissett2 1Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Sede Bogotá 2Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Eastern Cereal and Oilseed Research Centre, Ottawa 1Colombia 2Canada 1. Introduction Trichoderma species frequently are predominant over wide geographic regions in all climatic zones, where they are significant decomposers of woody and herbaceous materials. They are characterized by rapid growth, an ability to assimilate a diverse array of substrates, and by their production of an range of antimicrobials. Strains have been exploited for production of enzymes and antibiotics, bioremediation of xenobiotic substances, and as biological control agents against plant pathogenic fungi and nematodes. The main use of Trichoderma in global trade is derived from its high production of enzymes. Trichoderma reesei (teleomorph: Hypocrea jecorina) is the most widely employed cellulolytic organism in the world, although high levels of cellulase production are also seen in other species of this genus (Baig et al., 2003, Watanabe et al., 2006). Worldwide sales of enzymes had reached the figure of $ 1.6 billion by the year 2000 (Demain 2000, cited by Karmakar and Ray, 2011), with an annual growth of 6.5 to 10% not including pharmaceutical enzymes (Stagehands, 2008). Of these, cellulases comprise approximately 20% of the enzymes marketed worldwide (Tramoy et al., 2009). Cellulases of microbial origin are used to process food and animal feed, biofuel production, baking, textiles, detergents, paper pulp, agriculture and research areas at all levels (Karmakar and Ray, 2011). Most cellulases are derived from Trichoderma (section Longibrachiatum in particular) and Aspergillus (Begum et al., 2009).

  • Whole Genome Annotation and Comparative Genomic Analyses of Bio-Control Fungus Purpureocillium Lilacinum
    Prasad et al. BMC Genomics (2015) 16:1004 DOI 10.1186/s12864-015-2229-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Whole genome annotation and comparative genomic analyses of bio-control fungus Purpureocillium lilacinum Pushplata Prasad* , Deepti Varshney and Alok Adholeya Abstract Background: The fungus Purpureocillium lilacinum is widely known as a biological control agent against plant parasitic nematodes. This research article consists of genomic annotation of the first draft of whole genome sequence of P. lilacinum. The study aims to decipher the putative genetic components of the fungus involved in nematode pathogenesis by performing comparative genomic analysis with nine closely related fungal species in Hypocreales. Results: de novo genomic assembly was done and a total of 301 scaffolds were constructed for P. lilacinum genomic DNA. By employing structural genome prediction models, 13, 266 genes coding for proteins were predicted in the genome. Approximately 73 % of the predicted genes were functionally annotated using Blastp, InterProScan and Gene Ontology. A 14.7 % fraction of the predicted genes shared significant homology with genes in the Pathogen Host Interactions (PHI) database. The phylogenomic analysis carried out using maximum likelihood RAxML algorithm provided insight into the evolutionary relationship of P. lilacinum. In congruence with other closely related species in the Hypocreales namely, Metarhizium spp., Pochonia chlamydosporia, Cordyceps militaris, Trichoderma reesei and Fusarium spp., P. lilacinum has large gene sets coding for G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), proteases, glycoside hydrolases and carbohydrate esterases that are required for degradation of nematode-egg shell components. Screening of the genome by Antibiotics & Secondary Metabolite Analysis Shell (AntiSMASH) pipeline indicated that the genome potentially codes for a variety of secondary metabolites, possibly required for adaptation to heterogeneous lifestyles reported for P.

There are few reports of cloacal mycobiota on wild reptiles, and in particular, fungal presence and function in Caiman latirostris remains unknown. Our objective was to describe the fungal community present in the cloaca of wild female broad-snouted caimans during their reproductive season determine whether the number of fungi has some relationship with the female’s corporeal condition. Fungi were found in 9 out of 13 cloacal samples and 14 species of fungi were isolated and identified. Three of the species isolated had the highest occurrence values, and 2 of them are pathogenic. In this case, body condition index had no relationship with fungal frequency; the fungi found in this study may have originated from soil habitat and nest substrate that are in constant contact with the cloaca of the C.

The new species Hypocrea stilbohypoxyli and its Trichoderma anamorph are described. The species is known only from Puerto Rico where it grows on stromata of Stilbohypoxylon moelleri (Xylariales, Xylariaceae). Hypocrea stilbohypoxyli is readily distinguished from the morphologically most similar H. koningii/T. koningii by its substratum and slower growth rate, which is especially evident on SNA. Stromata are morphologically very similar to those of H. koningii and H. rufa. The anamorph is morphologically close to T. koningii, differing from T! koningii in having somewhat shorter and wider conidia. Hypocrea stilbohypoxyli differs from H. koningii/T. koningii in 3 bp in ITS-1 and 2 bp in ITS-2 sequences.

SAMUELS CHAMBERLAIN, H. L.,ROSSMAN,A. Y.,STEWART,E.L., ULVINEN, T. &SAMUELS, G. J. 2004: The stipitate species ofHypocrea (Hypocreales, Hypocreaceae) including Podostroma.- Karstenia44: 1- 24. 2004. Helsinki. ISSN 0453-3402. Stipitate species of Hypocrea have traditionally been segregated as the genus Podo­ stroma. The type species of Podostroma is P. leucopus for which P. alutaceum has been considered an earlier synonym. Study of the type and existing specimens suggests that these two taxa can be distinguished based on morphology and biology. Podo­ stroma leucopus is herein recognized as Hypocrea leucopus (P. Karst.) H. Chamb., comb. nov. , thus Podostroma is a synonym of Hypocrea. The genus Podocrea, long considered a synonym of Podostroma, is based on Sphaeria alutacea, a species that is recognized as H. alutacea. A neotype is designated for Sphaeria alutacea. Both H. alutacea and H. leucopus are redescribed and illustrated. The ne\ species H. nyber­ giana T. Ulvinen & H. Chamb., spec. nov. is described and illustrated. In addition to H. leucopus, seven species of Podostroma are transferred to Hypocrea, viz. H. africa­ na (Boedijn) H. Chamb., comb. no ., H. cordyceps (Penz. & Sacc.) H. Chamb., comb. nov., H. daisenensis (Yoshim. Doi & Uchiy.) H. Chamb., comb. nov., H. eperuae (Rogerson & Samuels) H. Chamb., comb. nov., H. gigantea (lmai) H. Chamb., comb. nov., H. sumatrana (Boedijn) H. Chamb., comb. nov. , and H. truncata (Imai) H. Chamb., comb. nov. A key to the 17 species of stipitate Hypocrea including ? ado­ stroma and Podocrea is presented.
