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).

Combined analysis of LSU, SSU and RPB2 gene data, showed that the species clusters with Lentithecium arundinaceum, Setoseptoria phragmitis and Stagonospora macropycnidia in the family Lentitheciaceae and is close to katumotoa bambusicola and Ophiosphaerella sasicola. Therefore, a monotypic genus, Poaceascoma is introduced to accommodate the scolecosporous species Poaceascoma helicoides. The species has similar morphological characters to the genera Acanthophiobolus, Leptospora and Ophiosphaerella and these genera are compared. Lentitheciaceae / Leptospora / Ophiosphaerella / phylogeny InTRoDuCTIon Lentitheciaceae was introduced by Zhang et al. (2012) to accommodate massarina-like species in the suborder Massarineae. In the recent monograph of Dothideomycetes (Hyde et al., 2013), the family Lentitheciaceae comprised the genera Lentithecium, katumotoa, keissleriella and Tingoldiago and all species had fusiform to cylindrical, 1-3-septate ascospores and mostly occurred on grasses.

  • 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.

Characterising plant pathogen communities and their environmental drivers at a national scale A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University by Andreas Makiola Lincoln University, New Zealand 2019 General abstract Plant pathogens play a critical role for global food security, conservation of natural ecosystems and future resilience and sustainability of ecosystem services in general. Thus, it is crucial to understand the large-scale processes that shape plant pathogen communities. The recent drop in DNA sequencing costs offers, for the first time, the opportunity to study multiple plant pathogens simultaneously in their naturally occurring environment effectively at large scale. In this thesis, my aims were (1) to employ next-generation sequencing (NGS) based metabarcoding for the detection and identification of plant pathogens at the ecosystem scale in New Zealand, (2) to characterise plant pathogen communities, and (3) to determine the environmental drivers of these communities. First, I investigated the suitability of NGS for the detection, identification and quantification of plant pathogens using rust fungi as a model system.

China *Correspondence: C.A. Shearer, [email protected] Abstract: The freshwater Dothideomycetes species are an ecological rather than taxonomic group and comprise approximately 178 meiosporic and mitosporic species. Due to convergent or parallel morphological adaptations to aquatic habitats, it is difficult to determine phylogenetic relationships among freshwater taxa and among freshwater, marine and terrestrial taxa based solely on morphology. We conducted molecular sequence-based phylogenetic analyses using nuclear ribosomal sequences (SSU and/or LSU) for 84 isolates of described and undescribed freshwater Dothideomycetes and 85 additional taxa representative of the major orders and families of Dothideomycetes.

  • Latitudinal, Habitat and Substrate Distribution Patterns of Freshwater Ascomycetes in the Florida Peninsula
    Biodivers Conserv (2009) 18:419–455 DOI 10.1007/s10531-008-9500-7 ORIGINAL PAPER Latitudinal, habitat and substrate distribution patterns of freshwater ascomycetes in the Florida Peninsula Huzefa A. Raja Æ John Paul Schmit Æ Carol A. Shearer Received: 23 April 2008 / Accepted: 26 September 2008 / Published online: 18 October 2008 Ó Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2008 Abstract Freshwater ascomycetes are important decomposers of dead woody and her- baceous debris in aquatic habitats. Despite evidence of their ecological importance, latitudinal, habitat and substrate distributional patterns of freshwater ascomycetes are poorly understood. In this study, we examined the latitudinal and habitat distributional patterns, and substrate recurrences of freshwater ascomycetes by collecting dead sub- merged woody and herbaceous debris in lentic and lotic habitats at five selected sites along a north-central-south, temperate–subtropical latitudinal ecotone in Florida. One hundred and thirty-two fungal taxa were collected during the study. Seventy-four were meiosporic and 56 were mitosporic ascomycetes, while two species were basidiomycetes. Canonical analyses of principal coordinates (CAP) and Sørenson’s similarity index of species based on presence/absence data revealed a high turnover in species composition between the northern and southern sites, indicating a change in species composition along the tem- perate–subtropical latitudinal ecotone of the Florida Peninsula. Results from the ordination analysis indicated that freshwater ascomycete community composition is not significantly different between lentic and lotic habitats in Florida. The geographically broadly distrib- uted species and species commonly found in Florida occurred in both habitats, whereas a number of new or rare species occurred in either lentic or lotic habitats, but not both.
