Abstract Microscopic fungi occupy a vast number of habitats, are taxonomically diverse, degrade complex substrates, and have stood out for their capacity to biosynthesize plethora specialized metabolites. Such molecules structurally many applications in fundamental applied sciences, example, medicine, material food chemistry, textile pharmaceutical industries, agronomy, among other fields. Howe...

None (In the course of studies about fungi associated with pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) die-back disease in the Ghaen region of south Khorasan (Iran), one species of Geosmithia was found. The isolates were identified as Geosmithia lavendula (Raper & Fennel I) Pitt based on its morphological and molecular properties. The genus Geosmithia (Ascomycota: Hypocreales) is belonging to mitosporic filame...

During the investigation of fungi associated with black (sooty) head mold of wheat and barley in different regions of Golestan, Alborz and Qazvin provinces (Iran) in growing seasons of 2014–15, several isolates with typical characteristics of the genus Harzia Costantin were collected. Based on the morphological characteristics, all isolates were identified as H. acremonioides (Harz) Costantin. 

In the framework of the project "collection and Identification of fungi in Iran" mycobiota of Kiasar National Park located in Mazandaran province (Northern Iran) was studied. During the first phase of this research, micromycetes of trees and shrubs from Kiasar National Park were collected and identified. In the current paper, 25 species of micromycetes of this region are reported. Among identif...

During isolation of Venturia inaequalis (Cooke) G. Winter from apple leaves and fruits in the laboratory, some fungi appeared as culture contaminants. From these, an isolate was identified as Aspergillus medius R. Meissn. (teleomorph known as Eurotium medium C.F.W. Meissn.), based on morphological and molecular data (sequences of ITS rDNA).

Sixteen isolates of Colletotrichum were collected from leaves with anthracnose symptoms or leaf spots of twelve wild, cultivated and ornamental plant species from the Guilan, Mazandaran, and Golestan provinces in Northern Iran. Five different species, including C. aenigma, C. gigasporum, C. godetiae, C. karstii, and C. musae were identified based on the DNA sequence data (TUB2, GS, GAPDH). Four...

Quercus persica and Pistacia mutica are two known and prevalent forest trees of Baneh and Marivan from Kurdistan province (W Iran). Thirty-five fungal isolates were obtained from 50 bark samples of Q. persica collected in Sept. and Mar. 2010–11. The aim of this study was to identify fungi associated with oak trees of Kurdistan province. Based on morphological features and authentic keys (Ellis ...

Black meristematic fungi are cosmopolitan and able to adapt to extreme fluctuations of ultraviolet radiation, temperature, and moisture and grow in exposed habitats such as stone surfaces. In a survey on fungi associated with fruit rots, leaf spots, canker, gummosis, dieback and trunk diseases of grapevine and walnut trees in Kurdistan Province (Iran), some black meristematic fungal isolates re...
