Species of Phoma and its allies were isolated during a survey on the diversity of endophytic fungi associated with pine trees in Korea. Based on the phylogenetic analyses of internal transcribed spacer and β-tubulin gene sequences, two Phoma-like species from the needles of Pinus koraiensis were identified as Peyronellaea calorpreferens and P. glomerata. They were also morphologically identifie...

Peyronellaea arachidicola is the causal agent of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) web blotch. Here, we report an assembled draft genome sequence P. strain YY187 obtained from symptomatic leaf in China. The size 47.3 Mb, consisting 26 contigs (N 50 = 2.2 Mb) with G+C content 56.37%. This will provide a valuable foundation for further research on genetics and comparative genomics arachidicola.

Novel species of microfungi described in the present study include the following from South Africa: Cercosporella dolichandrae from Dolichandra unguiscati, Seiridium podocarpi from Podocarpus latifolius, Pseudocercospora parapseudarthriae from Pseudarthria hookeri, Neodevriesia coryneliae from Corynelia uberata on leaves of Afrocarpus falcatus, Ramichloridium eucleae from Euclea undulata and St...

Ascochyta and Phoma are fungal genera containing several important plant pathogenic species. These genera are morphologically similar, and recent molecular studies performed to unravel their phylogeny have resulted in the establishment of several new genera within the newly erected Didymellaceae family. An analysis of the structure of fungal mating-type genes can contribute to a better understa...

El estudio fue realizado con el propósito de identificar la micoflora asociada semilla amaranto (Amarantus hypochondriacus L.) y determinar si Macrophoma sp. es transmitido por esta vía ya que en regiones productoras se presenta forma epifitia manera enfítica existe evidencia patógeno semilla. En proveniente siembras comerciales cosechadas 1995, Tlaxcala, México, evaluó incidencia los patógenos...
