“…Their conidial shape and the colour of median cell were also very similar (Maharachchikumbura et al , 2013b. The conidia of P. coffeae-arabicae are smaller than those of P. chrysea, P. umberspora and P. asiatica (Maharachchikumbura et al , 2013b. The apical appendages of P. coffeae-arabicae are shorter than these three related species.…”

Three Pestalotiopsis isolates were obtained from leaves of Coffea arabica and Rhodomyrtus tomentosa. Among them, two isolates produced versicolorous conidia, and the other produced concolorous conidia. Phylogenetic analysis based on a combination of ITS, β-tubulin and tef1 gene sequence data clearly confirms that they belong to two species and distinguishes them from other species in this genus, with ex-type sequence data in GenBank. On the basis of evidence from morphology and molecular phylogeny they are described as new species, Pestalotiopsis coffeae-arabicae sp. nov. and P. rhodomyrtus sp. nov.

“…Detailed phylogenetic trees for each group may be found in Walther et al (2013) phylogenetic understanding of the taxonomy associated with Pestalotiopsis and allied genera was based mainly on conidial characters (Steyaert 1949;Guba 1961;Nag Rag 1993), conidiogenesis (Sutton 1980) and sexual state association (Barr 1975). More recently, some new species have been introduced based on host occurrence, plus morphological and molecular data (Maharachchikumbura et al 2012(Maharachchikumbura et al , 2013aStrobel et al 2000). Furthermore, currently only 36 Pestalotiopsis species have either ex-type or ex-epitype sequences.…”

Many fungi are pathogenic on plants and cause significant damage in agriculture and forestry. They are also part of the natural ecosystem and may play a role in regulating plant numbers/density. Morphological identification and analysis of plant pathogenic fungi, while important, is often hampered by the scarcity of discriminatory taxonomic characters and the endophytic or inconspicuous nature of these fungi. Molecular (DNA sequence) data for plant pathogenic fungi have emerged as key information for diagnostic and classification studies, although hampered in part by non-standard laboratory practices and analytical methods. To facilitate current and future research, this study provides phylogenetic synopses for 25 groups of plant pathogenic fungi in the Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, Mucormycotina (Fungi), and Oomycota, using recent molecular data, up-to-date names, and the latest taxonomic insights. Lineagespecific laboratory protocols together with advice on their application, as well as general observations, are also provided. We hope to maintain updated backbone trees of these fungal lineages over time and to publish them jointly as new data emerge. Researchers of plant pathogenic fungi not covered by the present study are invited to join this future effort. Bipolaris, Botryosphaeriaceae,

“…Members of Sporocadaceae are saprobes, endophytes or foliar pathogens in tropical and temperate regions (Jeewon et al 2004;Tanaka et al 2011). Pestalotiopsis can be found as saprobes or pathogens worldwide (Jeewon et al 2002(Jeewon et al , 2003Maharachchikumbura et al 2011Maharachchikumbura et al , 2012Maharachchikumbura et al , 2013Maharachchikumbura et al , 2014aMaharachchikumbura et al , b, 2016a. Recently, Chen et al (2017) provided updates for this genus based on morphology and phylogeny.…”

The authors established the taxonomic status of endophytic fungi associated with leaves of Pandanaceae collected from southern Thailand. Morphotypes were initially identified based on their characteristics in culture and species level identification was done based on both morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses of DNA sequence data. Twenty-two isolates from healthy leaves were categorised into eight morphotypes. Appropriate universal primers were used to amplify specific gene regions and phylogenetic analyses were performed to identify these endophytes and established relationships with extant fungi. The authors identified both ascomycete and basidiomycete species, including one new genus, seven new species and nine known species. Morphological descriptions, colour plates and phylogenies are given for each taxon. RESEARCH ARTICLESaowaluck Tibpromma et al. / MycoKeys 33: 25-67 (2018) 26
