Abstract:

In the present study, six species of Bipolaris viz. B. heveae, B. neergaardii, B. papendrofii, B. zeae, B. oryzae, and B. australiensis and two species of Curvularia viz. C. intermedia and C. heteropogonicola were identified on graminicolous species. Bipolaris heveae on Echinochloa sp., Cynodon dactylon and Arundo sp., B. neergaardii on Oryza sativa, B. papendrofii on Saccharum officinarum and Curvularia intermedia on Echinochloa sp. are newly reported from Iran. Some new host plants are reported for above-mentioned fungal species. Moreover, identification key has been prepared for Bipolaris species with 3–4 distoseptate and phylogenetic relationships of some Bipolaris species based on sequencing of rDNA-ITS region is provided.

Identification of some grass-associated species of Bipolaris, Curvularia and Exserohilum in selected regions of Iran

Infected tissues of roots and leaves of various grasses as well as soil around their rhizosphere were sampled from Fars, Golestan, Isfahan, Khorasan Shomali, Khorasan Razavi, Mazandaran and Semnan provinces (Iran). Based on morphological characteristics and available keys, four species of Bipolaris including B. austreliensis, B. indica, B. micropus and B. spicifera, four species of Curvularia i...

New records and hosts of the Curvularia species in Iran

In present study, eight isolates of the genus Curvularia, recovered from plants of the cowpea, maize and bottlebrush in Khuzestan province, were identified based on molecular phylogeny in combination with morphology. The mycelial biomass of the isolates, produced in potato-dextrose-Broth, were collected by passing through filter papers and freeze-dried. DNA was extracted using a phenol...

Update on TILLING in Grass Species TILLING in Grass Species

The reverse genetics detection of single base changes in genes of interest, whether induced or endogenous, is an extremely powerful tool for functional genomics. Two major thrusts of research in the grasses are characterizing the function of all the genes in various genomes and then comparing those functions among species. Targeting Induced Local Lesions IN Genomes (TILLING) has proven to be a ...

ENDOPHYTIC SPECIES OF NEOTYPHODIUM ON SOME GRAMINEOUS SPECIES IN IRAN

Some members of the familyClavicipitaceae are endophytic and have mutualistic relationship with the plant family Poaceae. Their relationship is beneficial for both host and fungus. In the present investigation, endophytic fungi were isolated from seed and leaf sheath of hosts Festuca arundinacea, F. ovina, F. pratensis, Bromus tomentellus, Melica persica and Lolium prenne. Morphological charact...
