The leaf spots were round to irregular, brown to dark brown, with grey or tangerine margins. Multi-locus (LSU, phylogeny ITS, gapdh, tef-1α, tub2) phylogenetic analyses combined with morphological observations revealed four new species taxonomy belonging to the genus Setophoma, i.e. S. antiqua, S. longinqua, S. yingyisheniae and S. yunnanensis. Of these four species, tea plants S. yingyisheniae was found to be present on diseased terraced tea plants in six of the seven sampled provinces (excluding Yunnan). The other three species only occurred on arboreal tea plants in Yunnan Province. In addition to the four species isolated from diseased leaves, S. endophytica sp. nov. was isolated from healthy leaves of terraced tea plants. Effectively published online: 15 May 2019.

E-mail: [email protected] During our investigation of diseases of tea plants (Camellia sinensis) cultivated in China in 2013, a new leaf spot disease was found to cause severe yield losses in Guangxi Province. The MATERIALS AND METHODS associated leaf spots were circular to irregular, brown to dark brown in colour, with grey or tangerine margins. A subsequent Isolates collection effort of similarly affected tea plant leaves has been ongoing in many tea plantations located in six provinces of China, Isolates were obtained from either diseased or healthy tea i.e. Anhui, Fujian, Guizhou, Jiangxi, Tibet and Yunnan. Preliminary plant tissues collected from 18 locations in seven provinces of morphological observations and molecular analyses identified China, following the single spore isolation and tissue isolation the associated fungi as Setophoma spp. To our knowledge, this methods described in Liu et al. (2015). Type specimens of new is the first report of Setophoma on tea plants. Considering the species were deposited in the Mycological Herbarium of the potential commercial yield losses in tea plantations and the Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, limited knowledge of this disease, accurate identification of the China (HMAS), with the ex-type living cultures being deposited causal organisms is of great importance. in the China General Microbiological Culture Collection Center The genus Setophoma (Phaeosphaeriaceae) was introduced (CGMCC). to accommodate Phoma terrestris and Pyrenochaeta sacchari (de Gruyter et al. 2010). Species of Setophoma are characterised DNA extraction, PCR amplification and phylogenetic as having setose pycnidia, phialidic conidiogenous cells and analyses hyaline, ellipsoidal to subcylindrical, aseptate conidia (de Gruyter et al. 2010, Quaedvlieg et al. 2013). According to Index Total genomic DNA was extracted from fresh mycelia using Fungorum and MycoBank, four additional Setophoma species the CTAB method. Five partial loci including the large subunit have been described since the genus was introduced in 2010. of the nrDNA (LSU), the 5.8S nuclear ribosomal RNA gene with The currently recognised species are: S. chromolaenae, S. the two flanking internally transcribed spacer regions (ITS), cyperi, S. poaceicola, S. sacchari, S. terrestris, and S. vernoniae. partial glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gapdh), All except S. terrestris are reported to occur on unique host translation elongation factor 1-alpha (tef-1α) and β-tubulin plants (Table 1). (tub2) were amplified and sequenced using the following primer The aim of the present study was to investigate the taxonomic pairs: ITS1/ITS4 for ITS (White et al. 1990), LR0R/LR5 for LSU and phylogenetic relationships of Setophoma spp. associated (Vilgalys & Hester 1990, Rehner & Samuels 1994), gpd1/gpd2 for with tea plants based on multi-locus phylogenetic analyses, gapdh (Berbee et al. 1999), EF-1/EF-2 for tef-1α (O’Donnell et al.
