http://mi.iranjournals.ir/article_14226_0.html

Abstract/Summary
The anamorphic fungus genus Periconia is word wide in distribution and causes foliar disease on plants mostly in tropical and subtropical
regions. This paper presented the description and illustrations of P. palmivora discovered on leaves of Phoenix dactylifera
(Palmae/Arecaceae) from terai forest region of Uttar Pradesh, India. The taxonomic determination was based on morphological
characteristics of fungus. The proposed novel species is entirely different from previously described P. tirupatiensis Sub. having shorter,
unbranched and smooth conidiophores and longer and smooth conidia. A key of Periconia species reported on Phoenix is provided.
Descriptions and nomenclatural details were deposited in MycoBank (www.MycoBank.org).

Abstract/Summary
Molecular phylogenetic analysis presents two challenges when it is transformed into formal classifications: the taxonomic challenge (whether
and how to distinguish monophyletic sister clades or how to deal with paraphyletic grades) and the nomenclatural challenge (naming clades,
i.e. placing name-giving types accurately on a tree). One approach to the latter is morphology-based phylogenetic binning, which places
specimens based on phenotypic features on a molecular tree and assigns uncertainty values to alternative placement options. Here, we use
the example of the lichenized fungal genus Leptotrema to demonstrate how morphology-based phylogenetic binning can help to clarify
taxonomic and nomenclatural issues when naming phylogenetically defined entities. Leptotrema is known for a common and widespread
species, L.wightii, and phylogenetic analyses have been based exclusively on this species, including the recognition of a separate tribe,
Leptotremateae. However, the genus name Leptotrema and the tribal name Leptotremateae are based on the name L.zollingeri, which was
initially considered to be a synonym of L.wightii, but has recently been shown to represent a distinct species. As L.zollingeri differs
considerably in phenotypic features from L.wightii, it can be questioned whether the two are at all related or whether L.zollingeri is actually
closer to the genera Myriotrema and Ocellularia in tribe Ocellularieae. The solution to this problem is not trivial, as it affects the correct use
of the names Leptotrema and Leptotremateae. Morphology-based phylogenetic binning indeed demonstrated that L.zollingeri clusters with
the Myriotrema album group in tribe Ocellularieae with high support. Hence, in contrast with current use, the name Leptotrema becomes
available for the M.album group and Leptotremateae becomes a synonym of Ocellularieae. As a consequence, the new names

Abstract/Summary
In a study on Alternaria species, associated with cabbage black spot disease in Urmia, West Azerbaijan, Iran, cabbage fields were inspected
during the growing seasons of 20122013 and leaves with suspected symptoms of Alternaria infection were collected. A total of 135 isolates
with Alternaria characteristics were obtained from 10 main growing areas in this region and studied taxonomically. On the basis of
morphological characteristics of the studied isolates, 8 species viz. Alternaria arbusti, A. brassicicola, A. destruens, A. infectoria, A.
perangusta, A. tenuissima, A. turkisafria and A. vaccinii were identified. Alternaria tenuissima with 53 isolates, A. brassicicola with 38
isolates and A. destruens with 29 isolates had respectively the highest frequency among the identified species and distributed all over the
studied area. A. arbusti and A. perangusta each with only one isolate had the lowest frequency. Results obtained from the pathogenicity
tests showed that all the tested isolates from identified species were pathogenic on cabbage leaves, although there were statistically
significant differences in virulence of the tested isolates. A. brassicicola isolates had the highest virulence and A. arbusti and A. vaccinii
isolates had the lowest virulence. Isolates belonging to other species had moderate virulence. Except A. brassicicola which had been
previously reported from cabbage in Iran, all other seven species are reported for the first time from cabbage as the causal agents of black
spot disease. Also, A. arbusti, A. perangusta and A. vaccinii are reported as new species for Iran mycoflora.

MONITORING OF ECTOMYCORRHIZAL FUNGI IN THE LICHEN-REED PINE FOREST


ON THE PERM TERRITORY

Bibliographic information

http://en.vestnik.udsu.ru/files/originsl_articles/vuu_15_062_05.pdf

Abstract/Summary
The monitoring of agarics was carried out on the Perm Territory by a stationary method in three stages: I period of the study 19751977;
II period 19941996; III period 20102012. By now we have found in the lichen-reed pine for-est 117 species of ectomycorrhizal fungi
that belong to 18 genera and 8 families. Representatives of Cortinariaceae, Russulaceae and Boletaceae families prevail. Most species of
mycorrhizal fungi belong to 6 genera: Cortinarius (50 species), Russula (16 species), Inocybe (9 species), Lactarius (8 species), Amanita (7
species) and Suillus (7 spe-cies). Against the relative stability of the species composition of higher plants ((J I-II =96; J II-III =70; J I-III
=73), the biota of mycorrhizal fungi has undergone a greater transformation. The similarity indices estimated by basidia ranged from 27 to
33, while the similarity indices calculated with due account for identified mycelium were quite high and ranged from 62 to 67. The number
of dominant fungi by biomass in different periods varied from 7 to 10 species, and by a number of basidia from 4 to 7 species. There has
been a significant change in the species composition of fungi domi-nant by biomass (J I-II =21; J II-III =19; J I-III =7) and by a number of
basidia (J I-II =30; J II-III =11; J I-III =10). A minimum number of fungi were observed in dry years (1975, 2010 and 2011). Most
mycorrhizal fungi in the studied cenosis (54 species, or 46 %) belong to edible fungi.

The adaptive radiation of lichen-forming Teloschistaceae is associated with


sunscreening pigments and a bark-to-rock substrate shift

Bibliographic information

URL
http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2015/08/27/1507072112.short

Abstract/Summary
Abstract Adaptive radiations play key roles in the generation of biodiversity and biological novelty, and therefore understanding the factors
that drive them remains one of the most important challenges of evolutionary biology. Although both intrinsic innovations and extrinsic
ecological opportunities contribute to diversification bursts, few studies have looked at the synergistic effect of such factors. Here we
investigate the Teloschistales (Ascomycota), a group of >1,000 lichenized species with variation in species richness and phenotypic traits
that hinted at a potential adaptive radiation. We found evidence for a dramatic increase in diversification rate for one of four families within
this orderTeloschistaceaewhich occurred 100 Mya (Late Cretaceous) and was associated with a switch from bark to rock and from
shady to sun-exposed habitats. This adaptation to sunny habitats is likely to have been enabled by a contemporaneous key novel phenotypic
innovation: the production in both vegetative structure (thallus) and fruiting body (apothecia) of anthraquinones, secondary metabolites
known to protect against UV light. We found that the two ecological factors (sun exposure and rock substrate) and the phenotypic
innovation (anthraquinones in the thallus) were all significant when testing for state-dependent shifts in diversification rates, and together
they seem likely to be responsible for the success of the Teloschistaceae, one of the largest lichen-forming fungal lineages. Our results
support the idea that adaptive radiations are driven not by a single factor or key innovation, but require a serendipitous combination of both
intrinsic biotic and extrinsic abiotic and ecological factors.

Abstract/Summary
Abstract This study focused on investigation of the accumulation and distribution of mercury (Hg) in mushrooms of the genus Leccinum that
emerged on soils of totally different geochemical bedrock composition. Hg in 6 species from geographically diverse regions of the
mercuriferous belt areas in Yunnan of SW China, and 8 species from the non-mercuriferous regions of Poland in Europe was measured. Also
assessed was the probable dietary intake of Hg from consumption of Leccinum spp., which are traditional organic food items in SW China
and Poland. The results showed that L. chromapes, L. extremiorientale, L. griseum and L. rugosicepes are good accumulators of Hg and the
sequestered Hg in caps were up to 4.8, 3.5, 3.6 and 4.7 mg Hg kg 1 dry matter respectively. Leccinum mushrooms from Poland also
efficiently accumulated Hg with their average Hg content being an order of magnitude lower due to low concentrations of Hg in forest topsoil
of Poland compared to the elevated contents in Yunnan. Consumption of Leccinum mushrooms with elevated Hg contents in Yunnan at rates
of up to 300 g fresh product per week during the foraging season would not result in Hg intake that exceeds the provisional weekly
tolerance limit of 0.004 mg kg 1 body mass, assuming no Hg ingestion from other foods.

Influences of landscape structure on diversity of beetles associated with bracket fungi


in Brazilian Atlantic Forest

Abstract/Summary
Abstract Brazilian Atlantic forest ecosystem is a global biodiversity hotspot. We studied the effects of area, connectivity and habitat quality of
conservation areas on the diversity of beetles associated with basidiomes of wood-decaying fungi. Moreover, we analyzed the beetles'
composition to verify what the process that produces the differentiation between the patches ( diversity). Species richness of fungivorous
beetles increased the larger the area and the better the connectivity of conservation areas; however, neither area nor connectivity had an
independent effect on beetle richness. Furthermore, the fungivorous beetle community was affected by the reduction in resource availability
at lower trophic levels (i.e., host fungi and dead wood). The number of basidiomes and circumference of wood were larger in larger and
better connected conservation areas. The contribution of beta diversity to the total diversity increased with spatial scale, from plots to
transects to patches. Moreover, the observed beta diversity between patches was higher than expected by chance, contributing to almost
70% of regional diversity and the total dissimilarity is explained by turnover phenomena (species replacement between patches). Our study
indicates that the fragmentation of Brazilian Atlantic Forest has affected negatively the diversity of beetles associated with wood-decaying
fungi, even in relatively large conservation areas.

Abstract/Summary
In this study, the genetic diversity among Paecilomyces variotti isolaes was investigated. Sampling was performed from pistachio garden in
seven geographical region of Kerman province during 2011-2012. Seventy isolates were identified as P. variotii species using morphological
criteria. The genetic diversity among 20 selected isolates was assayed by variation at SSR marker bands using 12 pair primers. The
extracted genomic DNA was amplified with 7 pair primers and PCR products were separated on an electrophoresis agarose gel. A total of 24
alleles were identified with an average of 3 alleles per primer combination. The mean of Nei's coefficient among population was 0.62. The
average of Polymorphic Information Contents (PIC) for the P. variotti SSR markers was 0.60. Genetic relationships among isolates were
represented by a dendrogram based on similarity coefficient matrix with UPGMA method. Cluster analysis grouped the isolates into 5 major
groups and a wide range of diversity across the tested isolates was found. The most distance was detected between Zarand (var1) and
Rafsenjan (var15) isolates. These finding show that there are a week relation between subgrouped isolates and sampling regions. Based on
these results, we could conclude that SSR markers are suitable for illustrating levels of genetic diversity inward a population but not alone
adequate for demonstrate a population structures and their related geographical regions.

Abstract/Summary
Ash dieback is caused by Hymenoscyphus fraxineus, a cryptic species of the putatively harmless Hymenoscyphus albidus. Recently, H.
fraxineus was found to be native to East Asia. However, the virulence of Asian H. fraxineus strains on Fraxinus excelsior and the virulence of
European H. albidus on hosts other than F. excelsior and Fraxinus mandshurica have not yet been assessed. In a wound inoculation study,
the virulence of four H. albidus and four European and Japanese H. fraxineus strains was assessed on F. excelsior and Fraxinus
pennsylvanica in a climate chamber. Lesion lengths were measured after approximately three and a half months. No lesions were observed
on the negative control or on trees inoculated with H. albidus. In contrast, inoculation with H. fraxineus induced typical symptoms of ash
dieback on both tree species. Japanese H. fraxineus strains induced significantly longer lesions compared to European strains. Fraxinus
excelsior was highly susceptible and developed lesions averaging lengths of 17 and 84 cm for European and Japanese strains, respectively.
Fraxinus pennsylvanica was less susceptible and developed average lesion lengths of 16 and 48 cm for European and Japanese strains,
respectively. Most strains were successfully reisolated from necrotic lesions or inocula, fulfilling Koch's postulates. The data show that
additional introductions of H. fraxineus strains from the native range to Europe could pose a threat to the conservation of F. excelsior. In
addition, introduction of H. fraxineus to North America could potentially have a negative effect on the indigenous F. pennsylvanica.

ultralucens, is described from montane forests in Bolivia. The new genus is similar to Skyttea and Diplolaeviopsis from which it clearly differs
in larger apothecia with widely exposed black pigmented discs, macroscopically easily visible long excipular hairs covering the whole exciple,
and different ascus structure. Our results based on Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Bayesian analysis of three loci (nuSSU, nuLSU and 5.8S of
the ITS) suggest that the new genus belong to Helotiales and is sister to Diplolaeviopsis ranula within encoelioid-clade. The conidialascosporic connection of Diplolaeviopsis ranula is shown here based on the nucleotide match of rDNA sequences.

Abstract/Summary
Abstract: Type specimens of Venturia centaureae, V. chrysanthemi, V. corni, V. helvetica, V. muelleri and V. rhamni are revised,
redescribed and illustrated. The diagnosing characteristics of Venturia are: ascomata immersed, semi-immersed or superficial, scattered or
gregarious, often with papillate ostiole, with or without setae; paraphyses narrowly cellular, hyaline, evanescent in mature ascomata; asci
8-spored, bitunicate, broadly cylindrical to obclavate, usually lacking a pedicel; ascospores pale olivaceous to brown, 1-septate, usually
asymmetrical. The distinguishing morphological characteristics of V. corni are the numerous asci per ascoma, the narrowly fusiform, middleseptate, sub-hyaline to pale brown ascospores, and absence of paraphyses. These characteristics differ from those of other described
species of Venturia and are more typical for members of Mycosphaerellaceae (Capnodiales). Based on morphological data, V. corni should
be excluded from Venturia.

Abstract/Summary
Fumonisin, a mycotoxin produced by some members of Fusarium fujikuroi species complex, causes swine pulmonary edema and equine
leukoencephalomalacia. Clustering of the genes involving fumonisin biosynthesis in the genome have been revealed. The FUM cluster poses
many questions in regard to the process obtained by Fusarium and its evolution. In this mini review, fumonisin characteristics are described
and the role of fumonisin for the producing fungi and the evolution of the FUM cluster were discussed.

Thermomyces lanuginosus is The Dominant Fungus in Maize Straw Composts

Thermomyces lanuginosus

Bibliographic information

URL
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960852415011955

Abstract/Summary
The microbial community composition and function of three self-heating maize straw composts were compared by integrated meta-omics.
The results revealed that the fungal communities were primarily dominated by the phylum Ascomycota (>90%) regardless of different
nitrogen sources, which were exclusively composed of the Thermomyces, a genus of hemicellulose degraders. The bacterial community
composition was affected by the addition of nitrogen sources, as the abundance of the Actinobacteria increased, while the Proteobacteria
and Bacteroidetes decreased. Various hemicellulases and cellulases were detected in the composts, and the major xylanase secreted by
Thermomyces lanuginosus was always present, revealing that it was the dominant fungus in hemicellulose hydrolysis and that bacteria and
fungi might synergistically degrade lignocellulose. Thus, microbial communities in composts may develop a simple and stable structure of a
dominant fungal species and limited numbers of bacterial species under the selective pressure of high temperature and maize straw as
starting materials.

Abstract/Summary
Sooty mold fungi are often associated with honeydew which insects secrete while feeding on the plant. A great variety of these fungi occur
in the North of Iran, especially on Citrus ssp which is one of the most widely cultivated fruit trees in this region. During last 10 years, several
collections of these fungi examined and 15 species have been recorded. In this paper seven previously unreported species are treated and
described for the first time from Iran. The treated species include Catenuloxyphium heterosporum (on Salix aegiptiaca and Alnus glutinosa);
Echinothecium sp. (on Eriobotrya japonica and Passiflora sp.); cf. Denisiella sp. (On Citrus sinensis and Malus pumila); Fumagospora
capnodioides (on Alnus glutinosa, Populus deltoids, Salix aegyptiaca and Zelkova carpinifolia); Leptoxyphium fumago (on Alnus glutinosa,
Rubus sp. and Phytolacca americana); Tripospermum juglandis (on Ligustrum sp.) and Scorias spongiosa (on Citrus sinensis).

Abstract/Summary
Abstract: Xerophilic fungal species of the genus Aspergillus are economically highly relevant due to their ability to grow on low water activity
substrates causing spoilage of stored goods and animal feeds. These fungi can synthesize a variety of secondary metabolites, many of which
show animal toxicity, creating a health risk for food production animals and to humans as final consumers, respectively. Animal feeds used
for rabbit, chinchilla and rainbow trout production in Argentina were analysed for the presence of xerophilic Aspergillus section Aspergillus
species. High isolation frequencies (>60%) were detected in all the studied rabbit and chinchilla feeds, while the rainbow trout feeds showed
lower fungal charge (25%). These section Aspergillus contaminations comprised predominantly five taxa. Twenty isolates were subjected to
taxonomic characterization using both ascospore SEM micromorphology and two independent DNA loci sequencing. The secondary
metabolite profiles of the isolates were determined qualitatively by HPLC-MS. All the isolates produced neoechinulin A, 17 isolates were
positive for cladosporin and echinulin, and 18 were positive for neoechinulin B. Physcion and preechinulin were detected in a minor
proportion of the isolates. This is the first report describing the detailed species composition and the secondary metabolite profiles of
Aspergillus section Aspergillus contaminating animal feeds.

Abstract/Summary
The objective of this study was to characterize fungal communities in a subsurface environment cocontaminated with uraniumand nitrate at
the watershed scale and to determine the potential contribution of fungi to contaminant transformation (nitrateattenuation). The
abundance, distribution, and diversity of fungi in subsurface groundwater samples were determined usingquantitative and semiquantitative
molecular techniques, including quantitative PCR of eukaryotic small-subunit rRNA genesand pyrosequencing of fungal internal transcribed
spacer (ITS) regions. Potential bacterial and fungal denitrication was as-sessed in sediment-groundwater slurries amended with
antimicrobial compounds and in fungal pure cultures isolated from thesubsurface. Our results demonstrate that subsurface fungal
communities are dominated by members of the phylum Ascomycota,and a pronounced shift in fungal community composition occurs across
the groundwater pH gradient at the eld site, with lowerdiversity observed under acidic (pH <4.5) conditions. Fungal isolates recovered
from subsurface sediments, including culturesof the genus Coniochaeta, which were detected in abundance in pyrosequence libraries of site
groundwater samples, were shownto reduce nitrate to nitrous oxide. Denitrifying fungal isolates recovered from the site were classied and
found to be distributedbroadly within the phylum Ascomycota and within a single genus of the Basidiomycota. Potential denitrication rate
assays withsediment-groundwater slurries showed the potential for subsurface fungi to reduce nitrate to nitrous oxide under in situ acidicpH
conditions.

Long-lasting modification of soil fungal diversity associated with the introduction of


rabbits to a remote sub-Antarctic archipelago

Abstract/Summary
Abstract During the late nineteenth century, Europeans introduced rabbits to many of the sub-Antarctic islands, environments that prior to
this had been devoid of mammalian herbivores. The impacts of rabbits on indigenous ecosystems are well studied; notably, they cause
dramatic changes in plant communities and promote soil erosion. However, the responses of fungal communities to such biotic disturbances
remain unexplored. We used metabarcoding of soil extracellular DNA to assess the diversity of plant and fungal communities at sites on the
sub-Antarctic Kerguelen Islands with contrasting histories of disturbance by rabbits. Our results suggest that on these islands, the
simplification of plant communities and increased erosion resulting from the introduction of rabbits have driven compositional changes,
including diversity reductions, in indigenous soil fungal communities. Moreover, there is no indication of recovery at sites from which rabbits
were removed 20 years ago. These results imply that introduced herbivores have long-lasting and multifaceted effects on fungal biodiversity
as well as highlight the low resiliency of sub-Antarctic ecosystems. Received May 13, 2015. Accepted August 6, 2015. 2015 The Author

Abstract/Summary
Abstract: We analysed syntype material of Odontidium harrisonii W. Smith, Odontidium mutabile W. Smith, Odontidium tabellaria W.
Smith, Odontidium tabellaria var. W. Smith, Odontidium parasiticum W. Smith, Odontidium parasiticum var. W. Smith and Fragilaria
brevistriata Grunow in Van Heurck. A combination of light and scanning electron microscopy revealed that taxonomic drift led to currently
misconstrued concepts of many of these taxa. Preservation of type materials allowed morphological study of each taxon in detail. The
following new combinations, new names and new statuses are presented: Staurosirella harrisonii (W. Smith) E. Morales & C.E. Wetzel
comb. nov., Staurosirella mutabilis (W. Smith) E. Morales & Van de Vijver comb. nov. and Pseudostaurosira smithii E. Morales & Ector nom.
nov. stat. nov. Nomenclatural and ecological discussions, based on historical and current literature, are presented for each taxon. The study
of type materials is a necessary task in order to improve current databases used for taxonomic and ecological purposes, and such a study
should be an essential component of large-scale palaeo or neo-limnological research programs.
