“…Botryosphaeriales is a diverse order with a worldwide distribution, comprising species that vary from endophytes to pathogens (Slippers and Wingfield 2007; Phillips et al 2013; Chethana et al 2016; Daranagama et al 2016; Dissanayake et al 2016; Konta et al 2016a, b; Linaldeddu et al 2016a, b, c; Manawasinghe et al 2016; Zhang et al 2017). Currently, nine families are recognised, namely, Aplosporellaceae, Botryosphaeriaceae, Endomelanconiopsisaceae, Melanopsaceae, Phyllostictaceae, Planistromellaceae, Pseudofusicoccumaceae, Saccharataceae and Septorioideaceae (Schoch et al 2006; Minnis et al 2012; Wikee et al 2013; Slippers et al 2013; Wyka and Broders 2016; Dissanayake et al 2016; Yang et al 2017).…”

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.

“…European sweet chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill. ), known as one of the four major chestnut species in the world, has been well studied in nut rot by several phytopathologists and taxonomists [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. Several important fungal species, Cryphonectria parasitica M.E.…”

Nut quality is fundamental to the economic viability of the Chinese sweet chestnut industry, but fruit rot disease significantly reduces this quality. In this study, we investigated chestnut rot in Anhui and Hubei provinces in China. Typical brown rot symptoms were observed, affecting nuts from different plantations. Isolates were obtained from symptomatic tissues of rotted fruits that were identified based on morphological comparison and phylogenetic analyses of partial internal transcribed spacer (ITS), and tef1 and tub2 gene sequences. The inoculation results showed that the tested fungal species is pathogenic to chestnut fruits. Hence, a new and severe pathogen that causes Chinese sweet chestnut brown rot, Gnomoniopsis daii sp. nov., is introduced herein.

“…Even if, hazelnuts are relatively undemanding and adaptable to many different ecological conditions, hazelnut is susceptible to a large number of diseases such as bacterial blight (caused by Xanthomonas arboricola pv. corylina), powdery mildew disease (caused by Phyllactinia guttata), Mamianiella leaf spot disease (Mamianiella coryli) and very recently trunk diseases, which threaten hazelnut trees productivity and longevity (Lamichnane et al, 2013;Linaldeddu et al, 2016). Very little is known on diseases and disorders of hazelnut trees in Iran.…”

Common hazel (Corylus avellana) is an economically valuable nut crop worldwide. Phyllactinia guttata is a widespread powdery mildew species on this host in many hazelnut‐producing countries including Iran. Here, we report a new powdery mildew species on C. avellana in Iran. Hazelnut trees showing severe powdery mildew infection symptoms on leaves and fruit clusters were collected from forest areas in the Ahar (East Azerbaijan province) and the Khodaafarin (Ardabil province) regions of Iran. Based on a polyphasic taxonomic approach including morphological features of asexual and sexual states and phylogenetic inference based on ITS‐rDNA sequences, the identity of the species was determined as Erysiphe corylacearum. This study provides the first report on the occurrence of E. corylacearum on common hazel in Iran.
