(Ascomycota) as an endophyte from the needles of Austrian pine in Slovenia Dusan Jure*, Maja Jure**, Vesna Rajh* * Slovenian Forestry Institute, Department of forest protection and wildlife ecology, Vecna pot 2, 1001 Ljubljana, Slovenia ** University of Ljubljana, Biotehnical Faculty, Department of Forestry and Renewable Forest Resources, Vecna pot 83, 1001 Ljubljana, Slovenia. Abstract Isolations of endophytic fungal populations from green symptomless needles of Austrian pine conducted in natural stands and plantations in Slovenia establish that after Cyclaneusma niveum (Pers.:Fr.) DiCosmo, Peredo & Minter, Cenangiumferruginosum Fr. with isolation frequency of 6% (N=5592) is the most numerous fungus. It was isolated from the samples of all collected sites, the infection rate varied from 2,73% to 10,42%; on young trees it was 7,16% and in old trees it was 5,64%. The number of infections increased with needle age. It was predominantly isolated from the middle part (45,6%, N=336) and the tip (32,7%) of the needles, the basal part was less infected (21,7%). C.ferruginosum could not be isolated from buds. The results suggest that the needles represent reservoirs for the fungus from where it can spread to the twigs when environmental conditions change to the advantage of the fungus and/or the disadvantage of the host. Key words: endophytic fungi, Cenangium ferruginosum, Pin us nigra, drought stress 278 .

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.

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.

  • A Taxonomic and Phylogenetic Investigation of Conifer Endophytes
    A Taxonomic and Phylogenetic Investigation of Conifer Endophytes of Eastern Canada by Joey B. Tanney A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Biology Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2016 Abstract Research interest in endophytic fungi has increased substantially, yet is the current research paradigm capable of addressing fundamental taxonomic questions? More than half of the ca. 30,000 endophyte sequences accessioned into GenBank are unidentified to the family rank and this disparity grows every year. The problems with identifying endophytes are a lack of taxonomically informative morphological characters in vitro and a paucity of relevant DNA reference sequences. A study involving ca. 2,600 Picea endophyte cultures from the Acadian Forest Region in Eastern Canada sought to address these taxonomic issues with a combined approach involving molecular methods, classical taxonomy, and field work. It was hypothesized that foliar endophytes have complex life histories involving saprotrophic reproductive stages associated with the host foliage, alternative host substrates, or alternate hosts. Based on inferences from phylogenetic data, new field collections or herbarium specimens were sought to connect unidentifiable endophytes with identifiable material. Approximately 40 endophytes were connected with identifiable material, which resulted in the description of four novel genera and 21 novel species and substantial progress in endophyte taxonomy. Endophytes were connected with saprotrophs and exhibited reproductive stages on non-foliar tissues or different hosts. These results provide support for the foraging ascomycete hypothesis, postulating that for some fungi endophytism is a secondary life history strategy that facilitates persistence and dispersal in the absence of a primary host.

  • Back-Yard Fungi1
    88 WM. BRIDGE COOKE Vol. 73 BACK-YARD FUNGI1 WM. BRIDGE COOKE 1135 Wilshire Court, Cincinnati, Ohio 45230 ABSTRACT For a number of years, while caring for flower beds, lawn, and shrubbery at his home, the writer has collected fruit bodies of those fungi which have been observed. The result- ing list includes representatives of 138 species in most groups of fungi. While none of these is new to science, several records present interesting range extensions. In a search for fungi, any habitat in which a fungus will grow is a potential source of records. The most intimate set of habitats is that found on one's own property. In routine work on flower beds, lawn, shrubbery, and trees, macroscopic fruit bodies of many kinds of fungi have been readily observed and collected. Soil samples were tested for molds when laboratory facilities were available, and certain mold-type fungi were noted occasionally. Within the limits of the com- munity in which this property occurs, a number of types of fungi may be expectable on the basis of past records for the occurrence of fungi in Ohio. A few of these species require less distributed locations or locations disturbed infrequently. If it is true that there is at least one fungus to form a saprobic, parasitic, or mycor- rhizal relation with each vascular plant, this list is very incomplete. However, it gives an indication of the variety of fungi which can be found in a small area, and it gives an idea of the complexity of the artificial ecosystem put together by the small householder in his search for serendipity in modern suburbia.
