Crous, [email protected] Abstract: Genera of Phytopathogenic Fungi (GOPHY) is introduced as a new series of publications in order to provide a stable platform for the taxonomy of phytopathogenic fungi. This first paper focuses on 21 genera of phytopathogenic fungi: Bipolaris, Boeremia, Calonectria, Ceratocystis, Cladosporium, Colletotrichum, Coniella, Curvularia, Monilinia, Neofabraea, Neofusicoccum, Pilidium, Pleiochaeta, Plenodomus, Protostegia, Pseudopyricularia, Puccinia, Saccharata, Thyrostroma, Venturia and Wilsonomyces . For each genus, a morphological description and information about its pathology, distribution, hosts and disease symptoms are provided. In addition, this information is linked to primary and secondary DNA barcodes of the presently accepted species, and relevant literature. Moreover, several novelties are introduced, i.e. new genera, species and combinations,MANUSCRIPT and neo-, lecto- and epitypes designated to provide a stable taxonomy. This first paper includes one new genus, 26 new species, nine new combinations, and four typifications of older names.

Available online xxx INTRODUCTION ACCEPTED Since the advent of molecular DNA techniques, many species of phytopathogenic fungi have been shown to represent species complexes or to be included in genera that are poly- or paraphyletic (Crous et al . 2015b). Resolving these generic and species concepts is thus of the utmost importance for plant health and global trade in food and fibre (Crous et al . 2015b, 2016a). The present project focused on genera of fungi that have members causing plant diseases (phytopathogenic), links to a larger initiative called the “The Genera of Fungi project” based on Clements & Shear (1931) (www.GeneraOfFungi.org, Crous et al . 2014a, 2015a, Giraldo et al. 2017), which aims to revise the generic names of all currently accepted fungi (Kirk et al . 2013). ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Of the approximately 18 000 fungal genera that have thus far been described, only around 8 000 are in current use. However, the majority of these were described before the DNA era. To validate the application of these names, their type species need to be recollected and designated as epi- or neotypes with a MycoBank Typification (MBT) number to ensure traceability of the nomenclatural act (Robert et al . 2013). Furthermore, to move to a single nomenclature for fungi (Wingfield et al. 2012, Crous et al. 2015b), their sexual-asexual links also need to be confirmed. The present initiative forms part of the activities of the International Subcommission for the Taxonomy of Phytopathogenic Fungi [Pedro Crous and Amy Rossman

Mycosphere 10(1), 757–775, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/10/1/17 Abstract A new hyphomycete genus, Pleopunctum, is introduced to accommodate two new species, P. ellipsoideum sp. nov. (type species) and P. pseudoellipsoideum sp. nov., collected from decaying wood in Guizhou Province, China. The genus is characterized by macronematous, mononematous conidiophores, monoblastic conidiogenous cells and muriform, oval to ellipsoidal conidia often with a hyaline, elliptical to globose basal cell. Phylogenetic analyses of combined LSU, SSU, ITS and TEF1α sequence data of 55 taxa were carried out to infer their phylogenetic relationships. The new taxa formed a well-supported subclade in the family Phaeoseptaceae and basal to Lignosphaeria and Thyridaria macrostomoides.

This large class of organic hydrocarbons is distributed among all cellular organisms, including fungi. The different classes of terpenes produced by fungi are mono, sesqui, di- and triterpenes, although triterpene ergosterol is the main sterol identified in cell membranes of these organisms. The availability of genomic data from members in the Ceratocystidaceae enabled the detection and characterization of the genes encoding the enzymes in the mevalonate and ergosterol biosynthetic pathways. Using Citation: Sayari, M.; van der Nest, a bioinformatics approach, fungal orthologs of sterol biosynthesis genes in nine different species M.A.; Steenkamp, E.T.; Rahimlou, S.; of the Ceratocystidaceae were identified.

A single ascospore isolate was obtained and formed the asexual morph in culture. ITS, LSU, RPB2 and TEF1α gene regions were sequenced and analyzed with molecular data from related taxa. In a phylogenetic analysis the new isolate clustered with Leptosphaerulina americana, L. arachidicola, L. australis and L. trifolii (Didymellaceae) and the morphology was also comparable with Leptosphaerulina species. Leptosphaerulina saccharicola is introduced to accommodate this new collection which is morphologically and phylogenetically distinct from other species of Leptosphaerulina. A detailed description and illustration is provided for the new species, which is compared with similar taxa. The type specimen of Pleosphaerulina oryzae, is transferred to Leptosphaerulina. It is redescribed and is a distinct species from L. australis, with which it was formerly synonymized. Leptosphaerulina species have been linked to Pithomyces but the lack of phylogenetic support for this link is discussed.

In this study, several Botryosphaeriaceae isolates were obtained from mango tree decline disease symptoms and were identified using both phenotypic and genotypic characteristics and inoculation studies. The methods employed differentiated the isolates into two species, Lasiodiplodia theobromae and Neofussicoccum parvum. L. theobromae sporulated freely on media while N. parvum did not. Also, the species specific primer, Lt347-F/Lt347-R identified only L. theobromae while in the phylogenetic studies, L. theobromae and N. parvum clustered in different clades. L. theobromae caused dieback symptoms on inoculated mango seedlings while N. parvum did not. However, both species caused massive rot symptoms on inoculated fruits. L. theobromae was therefore confirmed as the causal agent of the tree decline disease in Ghana while N. parvum was reported for the first time as a potential pathogen of mango fruits in the country. Introduction and Lopez, 1971; Rawal, 1998; Schaffer et Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is one of the al., 1988). In India it has been reported that most important non-traditional export crops the disease had been a very significant one from Ghana, bringing in much needed foreign since 1940 (Khanzanda et al., 2004) with the exchange to the country.

(2009). Colletotrichum: a catalogue of confusion. Fungal Diversity 39: 1-17. Identification of Colletotrichum species has long been difficult due to limited morphological characters. Single gene phylogenetic analyses have also not proved to be very successful in delineating species. This may be partly due to the high level of erroneous names in GenBank. In this paper we review the problems associated with taxonomy of Colletotrichum and difficulties in identifying taxa to species. We advocate epitypification and use of multi-locus phylogeny to delimit species and gain a better understanding of the genus. We review the lifestyles of Colletotrichum species, which may occur as epiphytes, endophytes, saprobes and pathogens.

  • Identification of the Armillaria Root Rot Pathogen in Ethiopian
    For. Path. 34 (2004) 133–145 Ó 2004 Blackwell Verlag, Berlin ISSN 1437–4781 Identification of the Armillaria root rot pathogen in Ethiopian plantations By A. Gezahgne1, M. P. A. Coetzee2, B. D. Wingfield2, M. J. Wingfield1 and J. Roux1,3 Departments of 1Plant Pathology and Microbiology, and 2Genetics, Forestry and Agricultural Biotechnology Institute (FABI), University of Pretoria, Pretoria, South Africa. 3E-mail: [email protected] (for correspondence) Summary Armillaria root rot is a well-known disease on a wide range of plants, world-wide. In Ethiopia, the disease has previously been reported on Pinus spp., Coffea arabica and on various native hardwoods. The causal agent of the disease has been attributed to Armillaria mellea, a species now known to represent a complex of many different taxa. The aim of this study was to determine the extent of Armillaria root rot and the identity of the Armillaria sp. in Ethiopian plantations. As part of a plantation disease survey in 2000 and 2001, samples were collected in plantations at and around Munessa Shashemene, Wondo Genet, Jima, Mizan and Bedele, in south and south-western Ethiopia. Basidiocarps were collected and their morphology studied. Morphological identification was confirmed by sequencing the intergenic spacer (IGS-1) region of the ribosomal rRNA operon and comparing data with published sequences of Armillaria spp. Armillaria isolates were collected from Acacia abyssinica, Pinus patula, Cedrela odorata and Cordia alliodora trees. Sporocarps were found on stumps of native Juniperus excelsa. Basidiocarp morphology and sequence data suggested that the fungus in Ethiopia is similar to that causing disease of Pinus spp.

Mycosphere 7(8) 1192–1260, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/si/2c/9 Abstract Colletotrichum is an economically important plant pathogenic genus worldwide, but can also have endophytic or saprobic lifestyles. The genus has undergone numerous revisions in the past decades with the addition, typification and synonymy of many species. In this study, we provide an account of the 190 currently accepted species, one doubtful species and one excluded species that have molecular data. Species are listed alphabetically and annotated with their habit, host and geographic distribution, phylogenetic position, their sexual morphs and uses (if there are any known).
