UNLABELLED Septoria represents a genus of plant pathogenic fungi with a wide geographic distribution, commonly associated with leaf spots and stem cankers of a broad range of plant hosts. A major aim of this study was to resolve the phylogenetic generic limits of Septoria, Stagonospora, and other related genera such as Sphaerulina, Phaeosphaeria and Phaeoseptoria using sequences of the the part...

Zymoseptoria tritici is the causal agent of Septoria blotch, most important disease affecting wheat crops and responsible for up to 50% loss in yield. Azoles SDHIs are main groups fungicides used control disease. The efficacy these has decreased recent years due resistance development. Fungicide can be a result mutations target genes, upstream regulatory elements that over-expression proteins o...

Several species of Septoria are associated with leaf and fruit spot of pistachio (Pistacia vera), though their identity has always been confused, making identification problematic. The present study elucidates the taxonomy of the Septoria spp. associated with pistachio, and distinguishes four species associated with this host genus. Partial nucleotide sequence data for five gene loci, ITS, LSU,...
