MycoKeys, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 116, P. 275 - 301

Published: April 29, 2025

Waste accumulation in forest regions can have a severe impact on the soil mycobiome. However, research fungi inhabiting disposal sites remains limited. Therefore, this study focused taxonomy and phylogeny of ascomycetes isolated from dump-sites Chiang Mai, Thailand. The fungal strains were identified using morphological characterisations multigene phylogenetic reconstruction. A new genus, Pseudoleptodontidium, typified by Ps.chiangmaiense sp. nov. (Amphisphaeriales genera incertae sedis, Xylariomycetidae), along with two species, Penicilliumchiangmaiense (series Janthinella, section Lanata-Divaricata) P.terrae Erubescentia, Exilicaulis) (Aspergillaceae, Eurotiales), are described detail compared closely-related species. Our discovery offers valuable insights into associated disturbances.

Towards a natural classification of Dothidotthia and Thyrostroma in Dothidotthiaceae (Pleosporineae, Pleosporales)

Mycosphere, Journal Year: 2019, Volume and Issue: 10(1), P. 701 - 738

Dothidotthia and Thyrostroma (Dothidotthiaceae, Pleosporineae, Pleosporales) species are plant pathogens causing canker, dieback leaf spots on a wide range of hosts.However, the naming is difficult, due to insufficient protologues, poor phylogenetic understanding lack sequence data from type low-quality illustrations.Moreover, connections between asexual sexual morphs these genera unclear.In this study, fresh samples were collected symptomatic twigs branches in southern European Russia.Multi-gene analyses based concatenated LSU, SSU, ITS TEF1-α dataset used investigate position confirm relationships Dothidotthiaceae.In can easily be distinguished multi-gene coupled with morphological characters.The new species, robiniae, celtidis, T. lycii, moricola, styphnolobii, tiliae, ulmicola ulmigenum introduced.In addition, Neodothidotthia negundinicola clusters hence synonymized under Dothidotthia.Two combinations, D. negundinis, introduced.

Studies of plant-associated Ascomycota are topical, as they have varied life modes depending on their hosts in different ecosystems. In Italy, Fagales economically and ecologically important plants, especially the Alps Apennine mountain ranges. species host numerous ascomycetous species, comprising endophytes, saprobes, or pathogens. We retrieved data from 308 publications 1873 to 2021 listed 776 Italy. Among these, 696 were identified at level 80 genus level. Documented taxa belong Pezizomycotina (746), Saccharomycotina (2), Taphrinomycotina (5), genera incertae sedis (23). Sordariomycetes dominant (34%), followed by Dothideomycetes (24%), Lecanoromycetes (16%), Leotiomycetes (11%).

From a cause of rapid fig tree dieback to a new threat to mango production: the invasive bark beetle Cryphalus dilutus Eichhoff (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae) and its associated fungi found on mango trees in Europe

EPPO Bulletin, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 53(3), P. 663 - 670

Published: Nov. 6, 2023

Abstract Bark and ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are receiving increasing scientific interest because of the economic losses that they can cause in invaded areas. Nonetheless, there a number emerging pest species, belonging to different tribes, for which invasions have likely been overlooked past due their inconspicuousness, taxonomic confusion and/or misidentification. In summer 2022, severe infestations by bark beetle species tribe Cryphalini were observed on mango ( Mangifera indica L.) Eastern Sicily (Italy). No information about attacks trees Europe was available previously. However, occurrence cryphaline causing rapid common fig tree Ficus carica dieback reported same investigated area 2014 2015. We aimed identify attacking figs, describe fungal pathogens vectored this species. Our results revealed studied is Cryphalus dilutus Eichhoff pathogens, i.e., Botryosphaeriaceae, Ceratocystis ficicola Neocosmospora spp.,
