“…Linder 1940, Savile 1955. Our results confirm other molecular studies (Prillinger et al 2002, Lutzoni et al 2004 that show the Pucciniales as derived from lineages that include insect and nonvascular plant parasites (FIG. 2).…”

“…The Pucciniomycotina is distinguished from the other two major clades of Basidiomycota by the possession of simple septal pores that lack membrane-bound caps (Swann et al 2001, Weiß et al 2004 andreferences therein). In addition the cell wall sugar composition of the Pucciniomycotina differs from that in the Ustilaginomycotina and Agaricomycotina (Prillinger et al 2002).…”

In this study we provide a phylogenetically based introduction to the classes and orders of Pucciniomycotina (5Urediniomycetes), one of three subphyla of Basidiomycota. More than 8000 species of Pucciniomycotina have been described including putative saprotrophs and parasites of plants, animals and fungi. The overwhelming majority of these (,90%) belong to a single order of obligate plant pathogens, the Pucciniales (5Uredinales), or rust fungi. We have assembled a dataset of previously published and newly generated sequence data from two nuclear rDNA genes (large subunit and small subunit) including exemplars from all known major groups in order to test hypotheses about evolutionary relationships among the Pucciniomycotina. The utility of combining nuc-lsu sequences spanning the entire D1-D3 region with complete nuc-ssu sequences for resolution and support of nodes is discussed. Our study confirms Pucciniomycotina as a monophyletic group of Basidiomycota. In total our results support eight major clades ranked as classes (Agaricostilbomycetes, Atractiellomycetes, Classiculomycetes, Cryptomycocolacomycetes, Cystobasidiomycetes, Microbotryomycetes, Mixiomycetes and Pucciniomycetes) and 18 orders.

“…The phylogenetic pattern obtained in this work is in good agreement with the general evolutionary distribution between ascomycetes and basidiomycetes obtained for 18S rRNA genes (Prillinger et al, 2002). In contrast to the output for 18S rRNA sequences (and 16S rRNA for prokaryotes) the overall branch lengths in the GMC family are rather irregular.…”

“…In the present investigation, we have examined Sch. melanogramma species from Carex atrata L., C. digitata L., C. firma Host and C. ornithopoda Willd to detect whether cryptic speciation occurs.. As already suggested by Prillinger et al (2002), Sch. melanogramma (HB 3) on Carex atrata is a new species which is confirmed in the present study.…”

Schizonella caricis-atratae (Ustilaginomycetes): a new cryptic species on Carex atrata from Austria

et al. 2009

Based on DNA-fingerprinting, ITS-DNA sequencing and physiological characteristics, a new species of Schizonella, Sch. caricis-atratae, is described. Sch. caricisatratae is a so-called cryptic species, i.e. morphologically it is identical to Sch. melanogramma, but differs in physiological and molecular phylogenetic characters. Sch. caricisatratae can be distinguished by the following tests: growth on myo-inositol, D,L-lactate, salicine, maltose, αmethyl-Dglucoside, butane-2,3-diol, and D-turanose, at 30°C; no growth on galactose. Sch. caricis-atratae can be isolated from Carex atrata. The type strain is HB 3, CBS 123477.
