“…(2014) who excluded eight genera ( Beelia , Butleria , Hemimyriangium , Hyalotheles , Micularia , Saccardinula , Stephanotheca and Xenodium ) and included only Elsinoë and Molleriella in this family. Prior to the present study, the available molecular dataset for Elsinoë (asexual morph Sphaceloma ) proved to be rather sparse (Swart et al., 2001, Summerell et al., 2006, Crous et al., 2015b, Crous et al., 2016). Different authors have discussed the relationship between Elsinoaceae and Myriangiaceae , but based on morphological features and phylogenetic analyses, the two families were accepted as distinct within the order Myriangiales (Schoch et al., 2006, Schoch et al., 2009, Lumbsch and Huhndorf, 2007, Lumbsch and Huhndorf, 2010, Boehm et al., 2009, Hyde et al., 2013, Jayawardena et al., 2014).…”

Species of Elsinoë are phytopathogens causing scab and spot anthracnose on many plants, including some economically important crops such as avocado, citrus, grapevines, and ornamentals such as poinsettias, field crops and woody hosts. Disease symptoms are often easily recognisable, and referred to as signature-bearing diseases, for the cork-like appearance of older infected tissues with scab-like appearance. In some Elsinoë-host associations the resulting symptoms are better described as spot anthracnose. Additionally the infected plants may also show mild to severe distortions of infected organs. Isolation of Elsinoë in pure culture can be very challenging and examination of specimens collected in the field is often frustrating because of the lack of fertile structures. Current criteria for species recognition and host specificity in Elsinoë are unclear due to overlapping morphological characteristics, and the lack of molecular and pathogenicity data. In the present study we revised the taxonomy of Elsinoë based on DNA sequence and morphological data derived from 119 isolates, representing 67 host genera from 17 countries, including 64 ex-type cultures. Combined analyses of ITS, LSU, rpb2 and TEF1-α DNA sequence data were used to reconstruct the backbone phylogeny of the genus Elsinoë. Based on the single nomenclature for fungi, 26 new combinations are proposed in Elsinoë for species that were originally described in Sphaceloma. A total of 13 species are epitypified with notes on their taxonomy and phylogeny. A further eight new species are introduced, leading to a total of 75 Elsinoë species supported by molecular data in the present study. For the most part species of Elsinoë appear to be host specific, although the majority of the species treated are known only from a few isolates, and further collections and pathogenicity studies will be required to reconfirm this conclusion.

Towards incorporating asexual fungi in a natural classification: checklist and notes 2012–2016

Incorporating asexual genera in a natural classification system and proposing one name for pleomorphic genera are important topics in the current era of mycology. Recently, several polyphyletic genera have been restricted to a single family, linked with a single sexual morph or spilt into several unrelated genera. Thus, updating existing data bases and check lists is essential to stay abreast of these recent advanes. In this paper, we update the existing outline of asexual genera and provide taxonomic notes for asexual genera which have been introduced since 2012. Approximately, 320 genera have been reported or linked with a sexual morph, but most genera lack sexual morphs.

Agents of Systemic and Subcutaneous Mucormycosis and Entomophthoromycosis

Mucormycosis and entomophthoromycosis are invasive fungal infections caused by environmental pauciseptate filamentous fungi. Entomophthoromycosis presents as subcutaneous infections with favorable outcome after prolonged azole therapy without surgery, although it is potentially associated with disfiguring lesions. Mucormycosis can develop in HIV‐infected patients and in intravenous‐drug users. The diagnosis of mucormycosis should be considered an emergency, because delaying therapy will affect outcome. One of the major differences between mucormycosis and entomophthoromycosis is that the former occurs mainly in predisposed individuals, whereas the latter occurs mostly in apparently immunocompetent hosts. Culture results should always be interpreted in light of the clinical presentation and along with the results of direct examination and/or histopathology. Therapeutic strategies for basidiobolomycosis and conidiobolomycosis are not standardized because of the lack of clinical trials for these rare infections.
