Here, we investigated the effect of fertilizer application and mowing frequency on fungal endophyte communities and their life strategies in aerial tissues of three agriculturally important grass species (Dactylis glomerata L., Festuca rubra L. and Lolium perenne L.) over two consecutive years. Our results showed that the management practices influenced fungal communities in the plant holobiont, but observed effects differed between grass species and sampling year. Phylogenetic diversity of fungal endophytes in D. glomerata was significantly affected by mowing frequency in 2010, whereas fertilizer application and the interaction of fertilization with mowing frequency had a significant impact on community composition of L.

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.

    Nationwide Survey of Pests and Diseases of Cereal and Grass Seed Crops in New Zealand

    Arable Crops 51 NATIONWIDE SURVEY OF PESTS AND DISEASES OF CEREAL AND GRASS SEED CROPS IN NEW ZEALAND. 2. FUNGI AND BACTERIA M. BRAITHWAITE1, B.J.R. ALEXANDER1 and R.L.M. ADAMS1 1New Zealand Plant Protection Centre, MAF Quality Management, PO Box 24, Lincoln ABSTRACT A national survey of seed crops was conducted by the New Zealand Plant Protection Centre (NZPPC) from October 1995 to February 1996. Approximately 85,000 plants were inspected at 332 sites in the main cereal growing areas of New Zealand. One hundred and eighty new host/fungal associations were recorded for barley, brome, oat, ryecorn, ryegrass and wheat. Of these 26 were primary pathogens able to cause plant damage. The most common new associations were of fungi causing root rot problems, especially Phytophthora, Pythium and Fusarium species. The fungus, Ceratocystis paradoxa was found for the first time in New Zealand at two sites in Dunedin where it caused leaf spotting on wheat. Of the fungi and bacteria previously known to occur on cereals and grasses in New Zealand, Fusarium species were the most commonly observed, primarily associated with foot rot. A number of fungi and bacteria previously recorded on these hosts in New Zealand, were not detected during this survey. New Zealand’s freedom from a range of important exotic fungi and bacteria was confirmed. Keywords: cereal, grass seed, survey, Fusarium, Ceratocystis. INTRODUCTION From October 1995 to February 1996, the New Zealand Plant Protection Centre (NZPPC) conducted a survey of pests and diseases on four cereal and two grass seed crops. The survey was part of an ongoing plant pest and disease surveillance programme operated by the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry (MAF).

Asian Journal of Mycology 1(1), 88–105, Doi 10.5943/ajom/1/1/7 Abstract An updated checklist of microfungi, excluding bambusicolous fungi, recorded on grasses from Thailand is provided. The host plant(s) from which the fungi were recorded in Thailand is given. Those species for which molecular data is available is indicated. In total, 172 species and 35 unidentified taxa have been recorded. They belong to the main taxonomic groups Ascomycota: 98 species and 28 unidentified, in 15 orders, 37 families and 68 genera; Basidiomycota: 73 species and 7 unidentified, in 8 orders, 8 families and 18 genera; and Chytridiomycota: one identified species in Physodermatales, Physodermataceae. Key words – Ascomycota – Basidiomycota – Chytridiomycota – Poaceae – molecular data Introduction Grasses constitute the plant family Poaceae (formerly Gramineae), which includes over 10,000 species of herbaceous annuals, biennials or perennial flowering plants commonly known as true grains, pasture grasses, sugar cane and bamboo (Watson 1990, Kellogg 2001, Sharp & Simon 2002, Encyclopedia of Life 2018).
