ISSN (online) 2154-8889 MYCOTAXON doi: 10.5248/114.179 Volume 114, pp. 179–191 October–December 2010 Sphaerodes mycoparasites and new Fusarium hosts for S. mycoparasitica Vladimir Vujanovic* &Yit Kheng Goh *[email protected] & [email protected] Department of Food and Bioproduct Sciences, University of Saskatchewan Saskatoon, SK, S7N 5A8 Canada Abstract — A comprehensive key, based on asexual stages, contact mycoparasitic structures, parasite/host relations, and host ranges, is proposed to distinguish those species of Sphaerodes that are biotrophic mycoparasites of Fusarium: S. mycoparasitica, S. quadrangularis, and S. retispora. This is also the first report of S. mycoparasitica as a biotrophic mycoparasite on Fusarium culmorum and F. equiseti in addition to its other reported hosts (F. avenaceum, F. graminearum, and F. oxysporum). In slide culture assays, S. mycoparasitica acted as a contact mycoparasite of F. culmorum, and F. equiseti producing hook-like attachment structures. Fluorescent and confocal laser scanning microscopy showed that S. mycoparasitica is an intracellular mycoparasite of F. equiseti but not of F. culmorum. All three mycoparasitic Sphaerodes species were observed to produce asexual (anamorphic) stages when challenged with Fusarium. Furthermore, a phylogenetic tree, based on (large subunit) LSU rDNA sequences, depicted closer relatedness to one another of these Fusarium-specific Sphaerodes taxa than to the non- mycoparasitic S. compressa, S. fimicola, and S. singaporensis. Key words — ascomycete, coevolution Introduction Mycoparasitism refers to the parasitic interactions between one fungus (parasite) and another fungus (host). These relationships can be categorized as either necrotrophic or biotrophic (Boosalis 1964; Butler 1957).

(1999). Studies on Amphisphaeriales: The genera excluded from the Amphisphaeriaceae, Cainiaceae and Clypeosphaeriaceae. Fungal Diversity 2: 135-151. The Amphisphaeriaceae and the Cainiaceae have been narrowly defined, while the Clypeosphaeriaceae was broadly defined and considered a relatively large assemblage of ascomycetes whose affinities are uncertain. In this paper, the remaining genera previously included in the Amphisphaeriaceae (sensu lato) are dealt with. Fasciatispora having unicellular brown ascospores, and Seynesia and Collodiscula having brown ascospores and an Acanthodochium anamorph are similar to xylariaceous taxa and therefore considered best placed in the Xylariaceae. Muelleromyces has a parasitic habit on leaves, clypeate ascomata and asci with a J- apical ring and resembles Phyllachora, and is placed in the Phyllachoraceae. Melomastia is redescribed and illustrated and placed in the Pleurotremataceae. Chitonospora, Dyrithium and lodosphaeria are redescribed and illustrated, while Amphisphaerella, Ascotaiwania, Flagellosphaeria, Lindquistomyces, Manokwaria, Mukhakesa, Neohypodiscus, Urosporellopsis and Xylochora are discussed. These genera are placed in Ascomycetes incertae sedis as the available morphological data are inadequate to confidently conclude their taxonomic positions. Key words: Ascomycetes incertae sedis, Phyllachoraceae, Pleurotremataceae, taxonomy, Xylariaceae. Introduction The broadly defined Amphisphaeriaceae G.

  • Three New Species of B Otryotinia on Ranunculaceae1
    THREE NEW SPECIES OF B OTRYOTINIA ON RANUNCULACEAE1 G. L. HENNEBERT2 Institut agronomique, Universite de Louvain, Hervelee, Belgium AND J. W. GROVES3 Research Branch, Department of Agriculture, Ottawa, Canada Received October 10, 1962 Abstract Three new species of Botryotinia on Caltha palustris L., Ranunculus septen- trionalis Poir., and Ficaria verna Huds. (Ranunculaceae) are described as B. calthae Hennebert and Elliott, B. ranunculi Hennebert and Groves, and B. ficariarum Hennebert. Each of the three species has a Botrytis state of the 73. cinerea complex, and they thus constitute additions to the species already segregated from that complex, i.e. Botryotinia fuckeliana, 73. convoluta, B. draytoni, and B. pelargonii. The Botrytis state of B. ficariarum can be distinguished morp­ hologically. While B. ranunculi is a North American species and B. ficariarum an European one, B. calthae is reported from both continents. Introduction Botryotinia, a genus of the Sclerotiniaceae, was erected by Whetzel (1945) for four species formerly assigned to Sclerotinia Fuckel, but which differ from the true Sclerotinia species mainly in their erumpent, planoconvexoid sclerotia which are firmly attached to the substrate, and in the possession of a conidial state belonging to the form-genus Botrytis Pers. The type species is Botryotinia convoluta (Drayton) Whetzel in which the conidial state is a Botrytis of the cinerea type or B. cinerea sensu lato, and the other species included were Botryotinia fuckeliana (De Bary) Whetzel, of which the conidial state is Botrytis cinerea Pers. or B. cinerea sensu stricto, and Botryotinia ricini (Godfrey) Whetz. and B. porri (v. Beyma) Whetz. In the latter two species the conidial states would not be considered Botrytis species of the cinerea type.

Endophytes have shown the potential for the biological control of diseases. The colonization ability of native endophyte strains of Beauveria bassiana and their antifungal effect against B. cinerea were evaluated in Solanaceae crops. Root drenching with B. bassiana was applied, and endophytic colonization capacity in roots, stems, and leaves was determined. The antagonistic activity was evaluated using in vitro dual culture and also plants by drenching the endophyte on the root and by pathogen inoculation in the leaves. Ten native strains were endophytes of tomato, and eight were endophytes of chili pepper. All strains showed significant in vitro antagonism against B. cinerea (30–36%). A high antifungal effect was observed, and strains RGM547 and RGM644 showed the lowest percentage of the surface affected by the pathogen.

The manual was compiled by the Elements Working Group of the Terrestrial Ecosystem Task Force, under the auspices of the Resources Inventory Committee (RIC). The objectives of the working group are to develop inventory methodologies that will lead to the collection of comparable, defensible, and useful inventory and monitoring data for the species component of biodiversity.

    American Journal of Botany 98(3): 426–438. 2011. T HE FUNGI: 1, 2, 3 … 5.1 MILLION SPECIES? 1 Meredith Blackwell 2 Department of Biological Sciences; Louisiana State University; Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70803 USA • Premise of the study: Fungi are major decomposers in certain ecosystems and essential associates of many organisms. They provide enzymes and drugs and serve as experimental organisms. In 1991, a landmark paper estimated that there are 1.5 million fungi on the Earth. Because only 70 000 fungi had been described at that time, the estimate has been the impetus to search for previously unknown fungi. Fungal habitats include soil, water, and organisms that may harbor large numbers of understudied fungi, estimated to outnumber plants by at least 6 to 1. More recent estimates based on high-throughput sequencing methods suggest that as many as 5.1 million fungal species exist. • Methods: Technological advances make it possible to apply molecular methods to develop a stable classifi cation and to dis- cover and identify fungal taxa. • Key results: Molecular methods have dramatically increased our knowledge of Fungi in less than 20 years, revealing a mono- phyletic kingdom and increased diversity among early-diverging lineages. Mycologists are making signifi cant advances in species discovery, but many fungi remain to be discovered. • Conclusions: Fungi are essential to the survival of many groups of organisms with which they form associations. They also attract attention as predators of invertebrate animals, pathogens of potatoes and rice and humans and bats, killers of frogs and crayfi sh, producers of secondary metabolites to lower cholesterol, and subjects of prize-winning research.
