“…Molecular phylogenetic studies of the Parmulariaceae are difficult because of their biotrophic nature as well as the difficulties involved in DNA extraction from herbarium specimens. The pioneering study of the phylogenetic placement of Asterinaceae ( Hofmann et al 2010 ) and recent successful DNA extraction from the Meliolales ( Pinho et al 2012 , 2014 ), shows that phylogenetic approaches can be applied to obligate biotrophs, even when only old herbarium material is available.…”

Towards a phylogenetic reappraisal of Parmulariaceae and Asterinaceae (Dothideomycetes)

Members of the Asterinaceae and Parmulariaceae are obligate biotrophic fungi with a pantropical distribution that grow in direct association with living plant tissues and produce external ascomata and bitunicate asci. These fungi are poorly known, with limited information about their taxonomic position in the Dothideomycetes. Much of what is known is conjectural and based on observation of morphological characters. An assessment of the phylogenetic position of the Asterinaceae and Parmulariaceae is provided based on a phylogenetic analysis of the nrDNA operon (ITS) and the large subunit rDNA (LSU) sequence data obtained from fresh material of selected species collected in Brazil. Three key species were included and epitypified, namely Asterina melastomatis, which is the type species for the type genus of the Asterinaceae; Prillieuxina baccharidincola (Asterinaceae); and Parmularia styracis, which is the type species for the type genus of the Parmulariaceae. An LSU rDNA phylogenetic analysis was performed indicating the correct phylogenetic placement of the Asterinales within the Dothideomycetes. From this initial analysis it is clear that the Parmulariaceae as currently circumscribed is polyphyletic, and that the Asterinaceae and Parmulariaceae are related, which justifies the maintenance of the order Asterinales. Asterotexis cucurbitacearum is recognised as distinct from other Dothideomycetes and placed in the newly proposed family and order (Asterotexiaceae, Asterotexiales), while the higher order phylogeny of Inocyclus angularis remains unresolved. Additionally, Lembosia abaxialis is introduced as a novel species and the phylogenetic placement of the genera Batistinula and Prillieuxina is clarified.

“…The phylogenetic analysis later confirmed Meliolaceae are unitunicate Pyrenomycetes but are not close relatives of Erysiphaceae (Saenz & Taylor 1999). Meliola is the largest genus of Meliolaceae, and the accommodation of the genus in the family is supported by molecular data (Saenz & Taylor 1999, Pinho et al 2014.…”

“…Black mildews are obligate biotrophs, belonging to Sordariomycetes, Dothideomycetes and Hyphomycetes. Black colony-forming, parasitic fungi placed under Armatellaceae, Asterinaceae, Dysrhynchaceae, Englerulaceae, Lembosiaceae, Meliolaceae, Meliolinaceae and a few genera of hyphomycetes are referred black mildews (Hosagoudar 1996, 2008a, 2013b, Hosagoudar & Archana 2012, Hosagoudar & Sabeena 2011, 2014, Thimmaiah et al 2013.

A novel species, Meliola crotalariae is introduced herewith morphological evidence. It was collected from infected leaves of Crotalaria verrucosa (Fabaceae) in the Malabar Wildlife Sanctuary of Kozhikode district in Kerala State (India). The novel taxon is characterized by having alternate to unilateral and only 2% opposite appressoria with shorter mycelial setae (420 µm). This study provides a detailed description and illustrations with morphological comparisons of related Meliola species.
