Abstract: Since the beginning of the 20th century, several scientific names have been used for the causal agent of powdery mildew on evergreen spindle Euonymus japonicus. The nomenclature of this powdery mildew is reviewed and using Erysiphe euonymicola as current name for the species is suggested. Information on the history of occurrence, natural host range and distribution of E. japonicus powdery mildew in Iran is provided. Morphological differences between E. euonymicola and E. euonymi, a powdery mildew on other species of Euonymus in Europe is discussed.

Mycosphere 10(1), 310–489, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/10/1/7 Abstract Leotiomycetes is regarded as the inoperculate class of discomycetes within the phylum Ascomycota. Taxa are mainly characterized by asci with a simple pore blueing in Melzer’s reagent, although some taxa have lost this character. The monophyly of this class has been verified in several recent molecular studies. However, circumscription of the orders, families and generic level delimitation are still unsettled. This paper provides a modified backbone tree for the class Leotiomycetes based on phylogenetic analysis of combined ITS, LSU, SSU, TEF, and RPB2 loci. In the phylogenetic analysis, Leotiomycetes separates into 19 clades, which can be recognized as orders and order-level clades.

  • Hyperparasites of Erysiphales Fungi in the Urban Environment
    POLISH JOURNAL OF NATURAL SCIENCES Abbrev.: Pol. J. Natur. Sc., Vol 27(3): 289–299, Y. 2012 HYPERPARASITES OF ERYSIPHALES FUNGI IN THE URBAN ENVIRONMENT Ewa Sucharzewska, Maria Dynowska, Elżbieta Ejdys, Anna Biedunkiewicz, Dariusz Kubiak Department of Mycology University of Warmia and Mazury in Olsztyn Key words: Ampelomyces, hyperparasites, fungicolous fungi, powdery mildew, transport pollu- tion effects, anthropopressure. Abstract This manuscript presents data on the occurrence of hyperparasitic fungi colonizing the mycelium of selected species of Erysiphales: Erysiphe alphitoides, E. hypophylla, E. palczewskii, Golovinomyces sordidus, Podosphaera fusca and Sawadaea tulasnei in the urban environment. In the paper the effect of hyperparasites on the development of fungal hosts at diversified level of transport pollution is emphasized. Over a three-years experiment, the presence of hyperparasites was confirmed on all analyzed Erysiphales species, with prevailing species from the genus Ampelomyces. The representa- tives of other genera: Alternaria, Aureobasidium, Cladosporium, Stemphylium and Tripospermum were also observed on mycelium of E. alphitoides and E. palczewskii. The hyperparasites occurred only on stations situated at the main roads were found not to affect the extent of plant infection by fungi of the order Erysiphales, but reduced the number of chasmothecia.

Tul on the woody plants at the city green plantations in Lithuania. Acta Biol. Univ. Daugavp., 17 (1): 107 – 114. The aim of our work: to identify Erysiphaceae species injuring ornamental woody plants at city plantations and their spread in Lithuania. During 2009–2016 agents of powdery mildew at city green plantations were monitored, Alytus city was taken as a model. There were evaluated ornamental plants growing at protective street areas and recreational plantations: 35 genus, 48 species, 11 varieties. Powdery mildew fungi, the agent of leaf diseases, were detected at street plantations: 3 genus, 5 species and at recreational plantations – fungi of 3 genus and 9 species. Powdery mildew mostly injures plants of Quercus L., Acer L., Berberis L., etc. genus. During the research period mostly violent were Erysiphe R. Hedw. ex DC. genus powdery mildew agents: E. alphitoides, E. berberidis, E. euonymi, E. flexuosa, E. penicillata, E. palczewskii and E. syringae. At recreational plantations fungi Sawadaea bicornis has injured Acer ginnala most severely (average grade of injury – 3.33±0.4), less sever S. tulasnei was on Acer platanoides (grade 1–3.3). Podosphaera pannosa injured Rosa spp., injury grade 1.27±0.03–1.54±0.03. There were detected Phyllactinia fraxini, rare species in Lithuania, which have injured Fraxinus exelsior L. by 1.17±0.95 in 2012 and in 2013 – by 1.5±0.84.

Erysiphe quercicola S. Takam. & U. Braun (Familie: Erysiphaceae) Jonas Brännhage und Andrin Gross Eichenmehltau zählt zu den häufigsten Eichenkrankheiten Europas. Tatsächlich handelt es sich um drei verschiedene, sehr ähnliche Pilzarten, die unabhängig voneinander aus Asien nach Euro- pa eingeschleppt wurden. Auch wenn die durch Eichenmehltau ausgelösten Blattsymptome oft- mals gravierend aussehen, stellt die Erkrankung meist nur in Kombination mit anderen Faktoren eine Bedrohung für die Eichen dar.

    BRAUN et al.: Miscellaneous notes on some powdery mildew fungi 91 Miscellaneous notes on some powdery mildew fungi Uwe BRAUN, James H. CUNNINGTON, Ulrike BRIELMAIER-LIEBETANZ, Nosratolla ALE-AGHA & Vasyl HELUTA Abstract: BRAUN, U. et al. 2003: Miscellaneous notes on some powdery mildew fungi. Schlechten- dalia 10: 91–95. The taxonomy and nomenclature of Microsphaera americana, M. hypophylla and M. sinensis are discussed, the new name Erysiphe castanei (≡ Microsphaera americana) and the new combinations E. hypophylla and E. sinensis are introduced. The first collection of ascomata onErica gracilis is recorded, proving that Oidium ericinum is the anamorph of Erysiphe (Microsphaera) azaleae. Furthermore, collections of Oidium kalanchoës on Crassula ovata, Erysiphe necator on Cissus rhombifolius and Erysiphe (Microsphaera) species on Acer are recorded and discussed. Microsphaera aceris proved to be based on ascomata of Erysiphe (Microsphaera) syringae-japonicae blown onto the host leaves, and other collections of Erysiphe (Microsphaera) species from Acer were shown to be Erysiphe (Mi- crosphaera) alphitoides. Zusammenfassung: BRAUN, U. et al. 2003: Vermischte Anmerkungen zu einigen Mehltaupilzen. Schlechtendalia 10: 91–95. Taxonomie und Nomenklatur von Microsphaera americana, M. hypophylla und M. sinensis werden diskutiert und der neue Name Erysiphe castanei (≡ Microsphaera americana) und die neuen Kom- binationen E. hypophylla und E. sinensis werden eingeführt. Der erste Fund von Fruchtkörpern auf Erica gracilis wird beschrieben, der beweist, dass Oidium ericinum als Anamorphe von Erysiphe (Microsphaera) azaleae betrachtet werden muss. Weiterhin werden Funde von Oidium kalanchoës auf Crassula ovata, Erysiphe necator auf Cissus rhombifolius und Erysiphe (Microsphaera) -Arten auf Acer berichtet und diskutiert. Es hat sich herausgestellt, dass Microsphaera aceris auf Fruchtkörper von Erysiphe (Microsphaera) syringae-japonicae basierte, die auf die Wirtsblätter aufgeweht waren.
