“…3). This is consistent with earlier isozyme analysis result, in which significant genetic divergences have been documented among isolates from Prunus hosts (Surve-Iyer et al 1995). A strain CBS367.29 (AF191186, Fig.…”

“…In the isozyme analysis, isolates from M. domestica clustered into an independent group distinct from those from Prunus spp. (Surve-Iyer et al 1995). In addition, cultures of C. cincta from Malus hosts were distinctively colored with reddish brown hues, different from those from Prunus hosts (Proffer and Jones 1989).…”

“…This species is a well-known pathogen of stone-fruit tree causing necrosis of twigs and perennial canker, and widely distributed in Asia, Australia, Europe and North America (Hayova and Minter 1998c). Occurrence of C. cincta on Malus hosts has been reported in USA, Iran and China (Proffer and Jones 1989;Surve-Iyer et al 1995;Adams et al 2002;Fotouhifar et al 2010).…”

Fungal species associated with apple Valsa canker in East Asia

Since its discovery more than 110 years ago, Valsa canker has emerged as a devastating disease of apple in East Asia. However, our understanding of this disease, particularly the identity of the causative agents, has been in a state of confusion. Here we provide a synopsis for the current understanding of Valsa canker and the taxonomy of its causal agents. We highlight the major changes concerning the identity of pathogens and the conflicting viewpoints in moving to “One Fungus = One Name” system for this group of fungal species. We compiled a list of 21 Cytospora species associated with Malus hosts worldwide and curated 12 of them with rDNA-ITS sequences. The inadequacy of rDNA-ITS in discriminating Cytospora species suggests that additional molecular markers, more intraspecific samples and robust methods are required to achieve reliable species recognition.
