Recent publications have argued that there are potentially serious consequences for researchers in recognising distinct genera the terminal fusarioid clade of family Nectriaceae. Thus, an alternate hypothesis, namely a very broad concept genus Fusarium was proposed. In doing so, however, significant body data supports Nectriaceae based on morphology, biology, and phylogeny is disregarded. A DNA 19 orthologous protein-coding genes presented to support at F1 node Here, we demonstrate...
Novel species of fungi described in this study include those from various countries as follows:
This study assessed the efficacy of chitosan (CHI) and Mentha piperita L. essential oil (MPEO) alone or in combination to control mycelial growth five different Colletotrichum species, C. asianum, dianesei, fructicola, tropicale karstii, identified as potential anthracnose-causing agents mango (Mangifera indica L.). The coatings CHI MPEO mixtures controlling development anthracnose cultivar Tommy Atkins was evaluated. (2.5, 5, 7.5 10 mg/mL) (0.3, 0.6, 1.25, 2.5 5 μL/mL) effectively inhibited...
Mango anthracnose, caused by Colletotrichum spp., is the most significant disease of mango (Mangifera indica L.) in almost all production areas around world. In Mexico, anthracnose has only been attributed to C. asianum and gloeosporioides. The aims this study were identify species associated with symptoms Mexico phylogenetic inference using ApMat marker, determine distribution these species, test their pathogenicity virulence on fruits. Surveys carried out from 2010 2012 59 commercial...
Developing a comprehensive and reliable taxonomy for the Colletotrichum gloeosporioides species complex will require adopting data standards on basis of an understanding how methodological choices impact morphological evaluations phylogenetic inference. We explored in molecular evaluation associated with banana Brazil. The choice alignment filtering algorithm has significant topological inference retention phylogenetically informative sites. Similarly, marker affects delimitation boundaries,...
This study evaluated corn steep liquor (CSL) and papaya peel juice (PPJ) in mixture as substrates for the cultivation (96 h, 28 °C, pH 5.6, 150 rpm) of Mucorales fungi chitosan production, determined growth-inhibitory effect fungal (FuCS) obtained under optimized conditions against phytopathogenic Colletotrichum species. All tested were capable growing CSL-PPJ medium, showing FuCS production range 5.02 (Fennelomyces heterothalicus SIS 28) − 15.63 mg/g (Cunninghamella elegans 41). Highest...
The phylogenetic relationships among 44 isolates representing 16 species of Stemphylium were inferred from ITS and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (gpd) sequence data. results generally agree with morphological concepts. There was strong support for monophyly the genus Stemphylium. Analysis gpd fragment in particular useful establishing well-supported Species that appear to have lost ability produce a sexual state are scattered reproduce sexually (Pleospora spp.). pathogenic alfalfa...
Botryosphaeria dieback is an important disease of table grape in the São Francisco Valley, main Brazilian exporting region. The objectives this study were to identify species Lasiodiplodia associated with botryosphaeria grapes investigate prevalence and distribution region, evaluate their pathogenicity virulence green shoots grape. A total 112 isolates obtained from 14 vineyards, located Casa Nova, Juazeiro Petrolina. Fungal identifications made using phylogenetic analysis based on partial...
The objectives of this study were to determine the phylogenetic relationships species Leptosphaeria and Phaeosphaeria evaluate significance morphological characters teleomorph, anamorph, host. Sequences entire ITS region, including 5.8S rDNA, 59 isolates representing 54 analyzed phylogeny inferred using parsimony distance analyses. Isolates grouped into three well-supported clades. results support separation from sensu stricto. bicolor morphologically similar taiwanensis formed a separate,...
