Genetics of Sexuality and Population Genetics of Phellinus Weirii AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Peter Andrew Angwin for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Botany and Plant Pathology presented onJune 2, 1989 Title: Genetics of Sexuality and Population Genetics of Phellinus weirii Abstract approve dRedacted for Privacy Phellinus weirii (Murr.) Gilbertson, cause of laminated root and butt rot, is a heterothallic basidiomycete lacking clamp connections. Two biological species groups of the fungus have been hypothesized, the Douglas-fir and cedar-types, on the basis of physiological, morphological and epidemiological differences. Single-spore and vegetative isolates differ in cultural morphology, nuclear composition and growth rates, but variation among isolates makes it impossible to accurately identify the ploidy of individuals. Pairings of single-spore isolates in culture produce a wide range of reactions, from formation of darkly pigmented barrage lines to no visible change in morphology. Back-pairings of interacted mycelium from single-spore pairings with completely compatible homokaryons reveal that P. weirii follows a bipolar, multiallelic system of mating compatibility. Single-spore and homokaryon-heterokaryon pairings followed by back-pairings demonstrate the genetic isolation between Douglas-fir and cedar-type isolates, confirming the biological species hypothesis. Existence of a third Asian species is suggested by the lack of interaction of two Japanese isolates with both Douglas-fir and cedar-type tester homokaryons. Protein banding patterns obtained by SDS polyacrylimide gel electrophoresis show overall similarity between the three types but differ at several band locations. The Douglas-fir-type isolates were found on Douglas-fir and six other host species, including western redcedar. The cedar-type isolates were mostly confined to western redcedar, but were also identified on western hemlock and grand fir. The geographic ranges of the Douglas-fir and cedar-type Phellinus weirii overlap in much of the Douglas-fir region, indicating that the emerging biological species groups are likely the result of host specialization rather than geographic separation.
