Assessment of Cytospora Isolates From Conifer Cankers in China, With the Descriptions of Four New Cytospora Species

Meng Pan et al.

Summary: Cytospora species are diverse and can be endophytes, saprobes or phytopathogens. This study in China identified four novel Cytospora species associated with canker and dieback diseases in coniferous trees, representing the first attempt to clarify their taxonomy.

CcPmk1 is a regulator of pathogenicity in Cytospora chrysosperma and can be used as a potential target for disease control

Dianguang Xiong et al.

Summary: The study investigated the role of Pmk1 homolog CcPmk1 in the regulation of transcription factors and effector genes, fungal pathogenicity, and secondary metabolism biosynthesis genes. CcPmk1 was found to be a potential target for broad-spectrum disease control, affecting fungal growth and virulence. Unintended effects on nonpathogenic fungi should be avoided when considering CcPmk1 as a target for disease control.

Studies of canker and dieback of oak tree in China, with two Cytospora species described

Meng Pan et al.

Summary: This study identified two new fungal pathogens, C. quercinum and C. vinacea, as causal agents of dieback and canker disease in oak trees. Through detailed morphological comparisons, phylogenetic analysis, and pathogenicity tests in a greenhouse, the study confirmed their pathogenicity. Mycelial growth of the fungi was found to be significantly influenced by temperature and pH levels.

The Hidden Diversity of Diatrypaceous Fungi in China

Haiyan Zhu et al.

Summary: The study investigated the diversity of diatrypaceous fungi from six regions in China using morpho-molecular analyses. A total of 23 genera were accepted in Diatrypaceae, with 18 involved in the phylogram. The results demonstrate the high diversity of wood-inhabiting fungi in China.

Evaluating species in Botryosphaeriales

W. Zhang et al.

Summary: This study conducted a phylogenetic analysis on 230 isolates within the Botryosphaeriales order, resulting in the reclassification of 58 species and the description of eight new species. The study also demonstrated the reliability of tef1, tub2, and rpb2 genes as markers, and highlighted the importance of reassessing older collections in culture collections using modern taxonomic frameworks and methods.
