Common Fungal Diseases of Russian Forests, Including Diagnostic Signs and Symptoms, Pathogen Biology, Damage Caused by the Disease, and Methods of Control :USDA United States ~~ Department of Common Fungal Diseases ' Agriculture Forest Service of Russian Forests Northeastern Research Station General Technical Report NE-279 Evgeny P. Kuz'michev Ella S. Sokolova Elena G. Kulikova l Abstract Describes common fungal diseases of Russian forests, including diagnostic signs and symptoms, pathogen biology, damage caused by the disease, and methods of control. The fungal diseases are divided into two groups: those that are the most common in Russian forests and those that are found only in Russia. Within each group, diseases are subdivided by plant organ attacked, i.e. fruit, seeds, leaves, needles, roots, stems, and branches. The Authors EVGENY P.

A detailed description, illustrations, and discussion concerning morphologically similar and phylogenetically closely related species are provided for each species. From light and scanning electron microscopy observations C. diebuensis is characterized by the nailhead to peltate aeciospores, with separated stilt-like base. C. zhuoni- ensis differs from other known Chrysomyxa species in the annulate aeciospores with distinct longitudinal smooth cap at ends of spores, as well as with a broken, fissured edge. Analysis based on internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) partial gene sequences reveals that the two species cluster as a highly supported group in the phylogenetic trees. Correlations between the morphological and phylogenetic features are discussed. Illustrations and a detailed description are also provided for the aecia of C. succinea in China for the first time. Keywords: aeciospores, molecular phylogeny, spruce needle rust, taxonomy Introduction Picea asperata Mast.is native to western China, widely distributed in Qinghai, Gansu, Shaanxi and western Sichuan.

  • Clarification of the Life-Cycle of Chrysomyxa Woroninii on Ledum
    Mycol. Res. 104 (5): 581–586 (May 2000). Printed in the United Kingdom. 581 Clarification of the life-cycle of Chrysomyxa woroninii on Ledum and Picea Patricia E. CRANE1, 2, Yasuyuki HIRATSUKA2 and Randolph S. CURRAH1 " Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB T6G 2E9, Canada # Northern Forestry Centre, Canadian Forest Service, 5320-122 Street, Edmonton, AB T6H 3S5, Canada. Accepted 5 August 1999. The rust fungus Chrysomyxa woroninii causes perennial witches’ brooms on several species of Ledum in northern and subalpine regions of Europe, North America and Asia. Spruce bud rust has been assumed to be the aecial state of C. woroninii because of the close proximity of infected Ledum plants and systemically infected buds on Picea. The lack of experimental evidence for this connection, however, and the presence of other species of Chrysomyxa on the same hosts has led to confusion about the life-cycle of C. woroninii. In this study, infections on both spruce and Ledum were studied in the field and in a greenhouse. The link between the two states was proven by inoculating spruce with basidiospores from Ledum groenlandicum. After infection of spruce in spring, probably through the needles, the fungus overwinters in the unopened buds until the next spring, when the infected shoots are distinguished by stunting and yellow or red discolouration. Microscopic examination of dormant Ledum shoots showed that C. woroninii overwinters in this host in the bracts and outer leaves of the vegetative buds, and in the pith and cortex of the stem. The telia of C. woroninii, on systemically infected Ledum leaves of the current season, are easily distinguished from the telia of other Chrysomyxa species on the same hosts.

  • Alpine Larch
    Alpine Larch Pinaceae Pine family Stephen F. Arno Alpine larch (Lurix lyallii), also called subalpine larch and Lyall larch, is a deciduous conifer. Its com- mon name recognizes that this species oRen grows higher up on cool exposures than any other trees, thereby occupying what would otherwise be an al- pine tundra. Both early-day botanical explorers and modern visitors to the high mountains have noted this tree’s remarkable ability to form pure groves above the limits of evergreen conifers. Alpine larch inhabits remote high-mountain terrain and its wood has essentially no commercial value; however this tree is ecologically interesting and esthetically at- tractive. Growing in a very cold, snowy, and often windy environment, alpine larch usually remains small and stunted, but in windsheltered basins it sometimes attains large size-maximum 201 cm (79 in) in d.b.h. and 29 m (95 ft) in height. This species is distinguished from its lower elevation relative western larch (Larix occidentalis) by the woolly hairs that cover its buds and recent twigs, and frequently by its broad, irregular crown. Habitat Figure l-The native range of alpine larch. Native Range amounts atop numerous other ranges and peaks in western Montana and northern Idaho (4). In British Alpine larch (fig. 1) occupies a remote and rigorous Columbia and Alberta, alpine larch is common along environment, growing in and near the timberline on the Continental Divide and adjacent ranges, and in high mountains of the inland Pacific Northwest.

Mycosphere 6(3), 290–326, Doi 10.5943/mycosphere/6/3/7 Abstract The Dothideomycetes include several genera whose ascomata can be considered as apothecia and thus would be grouped as discomycetes. Most genera are grouped in the family Patellariaceae, but also Agrynnaceae and other families. The Hysteriales include genera having hysterioid ascomata and can be confused with species in Patellariaceae with discoid apothecia if the opening is wide enough. In this study, genera of the family Patellariaceae were re-examined and characterized based on morphological examination. As a result of this study the genera Baggea, Endotryblidium, Holmiella, Hysteropatella, Lecanidiella, Lirellodisca, Murangium, Patellaria, Poetschia, Rhizodiscina, Schrakia, Stratisporella and Tryblidaria are retained in the family Patellariaceae. The genera Banhegyia, Pseudoparodia and Rhytidhysteron are excluded because of differing morphology and/or molecular data.

Entoloma vezzenaense - new to Britain Editorial With the season well underway, time for a mid-term report. Rainfall (mm) Rainfall figures (courtesy of Orielton Field Study Centre) show that after a fairly average April-July rainfall, August and September were wetter than average: something that may explain a reasonably promising start to the waxcap-grassland season. This year has been a busy one for events - and in this issue we report on our training day in May which covered rusts and DNA-barcoding and two autumn field recording events which were run in conjunction with other groups. Our next issue will include reports on our UK Fungus Day event hosted at Orielton Field Centre together with other recent recording/traing events in which we have been involved. As we develop our expertise in DNA-barcoding techiques we are happy to consider in-house projects where we use barcoding to support the identification of cryptic species from particular fungus assemblages. Currently we are looking at chanterelles, at the suggestion of Adam Pollard-Powell, and will report on this, and our work on sand dune morels, in the next issue.

The family is typified by Melansporella gen. nov. It can be distinguished from other diaporthalean families based on its irregularly uniseriate ascospores, and ovoid, brown conidia with a hyaline sheath and surface structures. Phylogenetic analysis shows that Melansporella juglandium sp. nov. forms a monophyletic group within Diaporthales (MP/ML/BI=100/96/1) and is a new diaporthalean clade, based on molecular data of ITS and LSU gene re- gions. Thus, a new family is proposed to accommodate this taxon. Key words: diaporthalean fungi, fungal diversity, new taxon, Sordariomycetes, systematics, taxonomy Introduction The ascomycetous order Diaporthales (Sordariomycetes) are well-known fungal plant pathogens, endophytes and saprobes, with wide distributions and broad host ranges (Castlebury et al. 2002, Rossman et al. 2007, Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016).

Edition (2007) 31-45 Retrospective Analysis of Lophodermium seditiosum Epidemics in Estonia * Märt HANSO – Rein DRENKHAN Estonian University of Life Sciences, Institute of Forestry and Rural Engineering, Tartu, Estonia Abstract – The needle trace method (NTM), created and developed by the Finnish forest pathologists prof. T. Kurkela, dr. R. Jalkanen and T. Aalto during the last decade of the XX century, has been already used by several researchers of different countries for retrospective analysis of needle diseases (Hypodermella sulcigena , by R. Jalkanen et al. in Finland) or herbivorous insect pests of Scots pine (Diprion pini, by T. Kurkela et al. in Finland; Bupalus piniaria , by H. Armour et al. in Scotland), but as well of pests of Sitka spruce (Gilpinia hercyniae , by D.T. Williams et al. in England). Scots pine in forest nurseries and young plantations of Estonia is often but irregularly suffering from the epidemics of the needle cast fungus Lophodermium seditiosum . Current environmental regulations exclude from the regulatory (control) measures all the others except of well-argued prophylactic systems, built up on reliable prognoses. The last is inconceivable without the availability of a reliable, as well, and long- lasting retrospective time-series of L. seditiosum epidemics, which, as it is known from the last half of the XX century, are occupying large forest areas, usually not least than a half of (the small) Estonia. An appropriate time-series would be useful, as well, for the more basic understanding of the accelerated mortality processes during the stand formation in early pole-age Scots pine plantations.

Seonju Lee1, Johannes Z. Groenewald2 and Pedro W. Crous2* 1Department of Plant Pathology, University of Stellenbosch, P. Bag X1, Stellenbosch 7602, South Africa; 2Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures, Fungal Biodiversity Centre, Uppsalalaan 8, 3584 CT Utrecht, The Netherlands *Correspondence: Pedro W. Crous, [email protected] Abstract: During routine surveys for microfungi from the Fynbos of the Cape Floral Kingdom in South Africa, isolates of several Harknessia species were collected. Additional isolates of Harknessia spp. were collected from Eucalyptus leaves in South Africa, as well as elsewhere in the world where this crop is grown. Interspecific relationships of Harknessia species were inferred based on partial sequence of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) nuclear ribosomal DNA (nrDNA), as well as the b- tubulin and calmodulin genes. From these data, three new species are described, namely H. globispora from Eucalyptus, H. protearum from Leucadendron and Leucospermum, and H. capensis from Brabejum stellatifolium and Eucalyptus sp. Further- more, based on large subunit nrDNA sequence data, Harknessia is shown to be heterogeneous, and a new genus, Apoharknes- sia, is introduced for A. insueta, which is distinguished from H. eucalypti, the type species of Harknessia, by having an apical conidial appendage. A morphologically similar genus, Dwiroopa, which is characterized by several prominent germ slits along the sides of its conidia, is shown to cluster basal to Harknessia. Species of Harknessia, and their teleomorphs accommodated in Wuestneia, are shown to represent an undescribed family in the Diaporthales, as is Apoharknessia, for which no teleomorph is known.
