Salisapiliaceae</I> Œ a New Family of Oomycetes from Marsh Grass Litter
Persoonia 25, 2010: 109–116 www.persoonia.org RESEARCH ARTICLE doi:10.3767/003158510X551763 Salisapiliaceae – a new family of oomycetes from marsh grass litter of southeastern North America J. Hulvey1, S. Telle 2, L. Nigrelli 2, K. Lamour 1*, M. Thines 2,3* Key words Abstract Several filamentous oomycete species of the genus Halophytophthora have recently been described from marine environments, mostly from subtropical and tropical ecosystems. During a survey of oomycetes from internal transcribed spacer leaf litter of Spartina alterniflora in salt marshes of southeastern Georgia, isolates of four taxa were recovered that nuclear ribosomal large subunit (nrLSU) bore similarity to some members of Halophytophthora but were highly divergent from isolates of Halophytophthora Peronosporales s.str. based on a combined sequence analysis of two nuclear loci. In phylogenetic analyses, these isolates were phylogeny placed basal to a monophyletic group comprised of Pythium of the Pythiaceae and the Peronosporaceae. Sequence Pythiaceae and morphology of these taxa diverged from the type species Halophytophthora vesicula, which was placed within the Peronosporaceae with maximum support. As a consequence a new family, the Salisapiliaceae, and a new ge- nus, Salisapilia, are described to accommodate the newly discovered species, along with one species previously classified within Halophytophthora. Morphological features that separate these taxa from Halophytophthora are a smaller hyphal diameter, oospore production, lack of vesicle formation during sporulation, and a plug of hyaline material at the sporangial apex that is displaced during zoospore release. Our findings offer a first glance at the presumably much higher diversity of oomycetes in estuarine environments, of which ecological significance requires further exploration. -
Phytopythium: Molecular Phylogeny and Systematics
Persoonia 34, 2015: 25–39 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/pimj RESEARCH ARTICLE http://dx.doi.org/10.3767/003158515X685382 Phytopythium: molecular phylogeny and systematics A.W.A.M. de Cock1, A.M. Lodhi2, T.L. Rintoul 3, K. Bala 3, G.P. Robideau3, Z. Gloria Abad4, M.D. Coffey 5, S. Shahzad 6, C.A. Lévesque 3 Key words Abstract The genus Phytopythium (Peronosporales) has been described, but a complete circumscription has not yet been presented. In the present paper we provide molecular-based evidence that members of Pythium COI clade K as described by Lévesque & de Cock (2004) belong to Phytopythium. Maximum likelihood and Bayesian LSU phylogenetic analysis of the nuclear ribosomal DNA (LSU and SSU) and mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase Oomycetes subunit 1 (COI) as well as statistical analyses of pairwise distances strongly support the status of Phytopythium as Oomycota a separate phylogenetic entity. Phytopythium is morphologically intermediate between the genera Phytophthora Peronosporales and Pythium. It is unique in having papillate, internally proliferating sporangia and cylindrical or lobate antheridia. Phytopythium The formal transfer of clade K species to Phytopythium and a comparison with morphologically similar species of Pythiales the genera Pythium and Phytophthora is presented. A new species is described, Phytopythium mirpurense. SSU Article info Received: 28 January 2014; Accepted: 27 September 2014; Published: 30 October 2014. INTRODUCTION establish which species belong to clade K and to make new taxonomic combinations for these species. To achieve this The genus Pythium as defined by Pringsheim in 1858 was goal, phylogenies based on nuclear LSU rRNA (28S), SSU divided by Lévesque & de Cock (2004) into 11 clades based rRNA (18S) and mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase1 (COI) on molecular systematic analyses. -

The genus Pythium in mainland China HO Hon-Hing* Department of Biology, State University of New York, New Paltz, New York 12561, USA Abstract: A historical review of studies on the genus Pythium in mainland China was conducted, covering the occurrence, distribution, taxonomy, pathogenicity, plant disease control and its utilization. To date, 64 species of Pythium have been reported and 13 were described as new to the world: P. acrogynum, P. amasculinum, P. b ai sen se , P. boreale, P. breve, P. connatum, P. falciforme, P. guiyangense, P. guangxiense, P. hypoandrum, P. kummingense, P. nanningense and P. sinensis. The dominant species is P. aphanidermatum causing serious damping off and rotting of roots, stems, leaves and fruits of a wide variety of plants throughout the country. Most of the Pythium species are pathogenic with 44 species parasitic on plants, one on the red alga, Porphyra: P. porphyrae, two on mosquito larvae: P. carolinianum and P. guiyangense and two mycoparasitic: P. nunn and P. oligandrum. In comparison, 48 and 28 species have been reported, respectively, from Taiwan and Hainan Island with one new species described in Taiwan: P. sukuiense. The prospect of future study on the genus Pythium in mainland China was discussed.

By Pythium debaryanum 1Chadi, .M.,1 Auyo, M.I., 2Daniel, A.K., and 1Kutama, A.S., 1Department of Biological Sciences, Faculty of Sciences, Federal University Dutse, Jigawa State, Nigeria 2Department of Environmental Sciences, Faculty of Sciences, Federal University Dutse, Jigawa State, Nigeria Accepted 13 August, 2016 The focus of this study is on the effect of different temperature on the incidence and severity of pre-emergence and post-emergence damping off of cowpea (Vignaunguiculata) caused by Pythium debaryanum. This research was conducted using 130 viable cowpea seeds each for pre-emergence and post-emergence damping. Germinating and germinated seeds, as the case may be, were incubated in groups of 10 in three replicates at 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40 0C. A replicate of 10 samples each was observed as control for pre-emergence and post- emergence damping off. The findings of this research show clearly that the effect of temperature on the incidence and severity of damping off on Cowpea by Pythium debaryanum was significant for both pre-emergence and post- emergence damping off. In both cases, disease incidence for the lowest and highest treatment temperature was 70% and 96.7% respectively. This means that the incidence and severity of damping off increases with increased temperature in both seeds and seedlings. -
The Taxonomy and Biology of Phytophthora and Pythium
Journal of Bacteriology & Mycology: Open Access Review Article Open Access The taxonomy and biology of Phytophthora and Pythium Abstract Volume 6 Issue 1 - 2018 The genera Phytophthora and Pythium include many economically important species Hon H Ho which have been placed in Kingdom Chromista or Kingdom Straminipila, distinct from Department of Biology, State University of New York, USA Kingdom Fungi. Their taxonomic problems, basic biology and economic importance have been reviewed. Morphologically, both genera are very similar in having coenocytic, hyaline Correspondence: Hon H Ho, Professor of Biology, State and freely branching mycelia, oogonia with usually single oospores but the definitive University of New York, New Paltz, NY 12561, USA, differentiation between them lies in the mode of zoospore differentiation and discharge. Email [email protected] In Phytophthora, the zoospores are differentiated within the sporangium proper and when mature, released in an evanescent vesicle at the sporangial apex, whereas in Pythium, the Received: January 23, 2018 | Published: February 12, 2018 protoplast of a sporangium is transferred usually through an exit tube to a thin vesicle outside the sporangium where zoospores are differentiated and released upon the rupture of the vesicle. Many species of Phytophthora are destructive pathogens of especially dicotyledonous woody trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants whereas Pythium species attacked primarily monocotyledonous herbaceous plants, whereas some cause diseases in fishes, red algae and mammals including humans. However, several mycoparasitic and entomopathogenic species of Pythium have been utilized respectively, to successfully control other plant pathogenic fungi and harmful insects including mosquitoes while the others utilized to produce valuable chemicals for pharmacy and food industry. -

Copyright © 2012 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University http://scholar.sun.ac.za PYTHIUM SPECIES ASSOCIATED WITH ROOIBOS, AND THE INFLUENCE OF MANAGEMENT PRACTICES ON DISEASE DEVELOPMENT SUMMARY Damping-off of rooibos (Aspalathus linearis), which is an important indigenous crop in South Africa, causes serious losses in rooibos nurseries and is caused by a complex of pathogens of which oomycetes, mainly Pythium, are an important component. The management of damping-off in organic rooibos nurseries is problematic, since phenylamide fungicides may not be used. Therefore, alternative management strategies such as rotation crops, compost and biological control agents, must be investigated. The management of damping-off requires knowledge, which currently is lacking, of the Pythium species involved, and their pathogenicity towards rooibos and two nursery rotation crops (lupin and oats). Pythium species identification can be difficult since the genus is complex and consists of more than 120 species. -

PROOF Biological Control of Pythium Root Rot of Chrysanthemum in Small-Scale Hydroponic Units
PHYTOPATHOLOGY PROOF W. Liu et al. (2007) Phytoparasitica 35(2):xxx-xxx PROOF Biological Control of Pythium Root Rot of Chrysanthemum in Small-scale Hydroponic Units W. Liu,1 J.C. Sutton,1;∗ B. Grodzinski,2J.W. Kloepper3 and M.S. Reddy3 The capacity of several strains of root-colonizing bacteria to suppress Pythium aphanider- matum, Pythium dissotocum and root rot was investigated in chrysanthemums grown in single-plant hydroponic units containing an aerated nutrient solution. The strains were 4 −1 applied in the nutrient solution at a final density of 10 CFU ml and 14 days later the 4 root systems were inoculated with Pythium by immersion in suspensions of 10 zoospores −1 ml solution. Controls received no bacteria, no Pythium, or one of the Pythium spp. but no bacteria. Strain effectiveness was estimated based on percent roots colonized by Pythium and area under disease progress curves (AUDPC). In plants treated respectively with Pseudomonas (Ps.) chlororaphis 63-28 and Bacillus cereus HY06 and inoculated with P. aphanidermatum, root colonization by the pathogen was 83% and 72% lower than in the pathogen control, and AUDPC value was reduced by 61% and 65%. For P. dissotocum, the respective strains reduced root colonization by 87% and 91%, and AUDPC values by 70% and 90%. In plants treated respectively with Pseudomonas chlororaphis Tx-1 and Comamonas acidovorans c-4-7-28, root colonization by P. aphanidermatum was 84% and 80% lower than in the controls and AUDPC values were reduced by 66% and 57%; these strains did not suppress P. dissotocum.
