Re-Evaluating Botryosphaeriales: Ancestral State Reconstructions of Selected Characters and Evolution of Nutritional Modes

Achala R. Rathnayaka et al.

Summary: This study re-evaluated the character evolution and taxonomic placements of Botryosphaeriales species. It found that the order originated around 109 million years ago in the early Cretaceous period. The study also assessed two hypotheses and found a relationship between conidial color and nutritional mode in botryosphaerialean taxa.

Morphology and Phylogeny of Pestalotiopsis (Sporocadaceae, Amphisphaeriales) from Fagaceae Leaves in China

Ning Jiang et al.

Summary: In this study, investigations were conducted on leaf spot diseases of Fagaceae in China, and 10 new species of Pestalotiopsis were identified. Additionally, six new host records were recognized. This study significantly contributes to the taxonomy of Pestalotiopsis and improves our understanding of leaf diseases of Fagaceae hosts.

Two new species of Botryosphaeriaceae (Botryosphaeriales) and new host/geographical records

Achala R. Rathnayaka et al.

Summary: Botryosphaeriaceae is the largest family in Botryosphaeriales, distributed worldwide on various plant hosts. This study identified two new species and recorded new hosts and geographical distributions through morphological and phylogenetic analyses. These findings are important for understanding canker and die-back diseases in woody plants.

Multi-gene phylogeny and morphology of two new Phyllosticta (Phyllostictaceae, Botryosphaeriales) species from China

Cheng-Bin Wang et al.

Summary: During this study, two new species of Phyllosticta were identified from hosts Quercus aliena and Viburnum odoratissimum. These new species showed distinct lineages and morphological differences from the currently accepted species in this genus.

Species of Botryosphaeriaceae associated with citrus branch diseases in China

X. E. Xiao et al.

Summary: This study investigated the diversity of Botryosphaeriaceae species associated with citrus branch diseases in China. A total of 18 species were identified, with Botryosphaeria dothidea and L. pseudotheobromae being the most common pathogens. All 18 species showed pathogenicity to Citrus reticulata shoots in vitro, but not all were pathogenic to Cocktail grapefruit (C. paradisi x C. reticulata) shoots in vivo. Lasiodiplodia was found to be the most aggressive genus both in vitro and in vivo.

Genetic Diversity and Pathogenicity of Botryosphaeriaceae Species Associated with Symptomatic Citrus Plants in Europe

Jadson Diogo Pereira Bezerra et al.

Summary: This study investigated the occurrence, genetic diversity, and pathogenicity of Botryosphaeriaceae species associated with symptomatic citrus species in citrus-production areas in five European countries. Nine species were identified and shown to cause similar symptoms to those observed in nature in pathogenicity tests.

Looking for the undiscovered asexual taxa: case studies from lesser studied life modes and habitats

N. N. Wijayawardene et al.

Summary: Fungi are essential members of the biosphere, crucial for sustaining ecosystems by maintaining nutrient balance. Despite their abundance in various habitats, many areas remain understudied, highlighting the need for more research to uncover the extent of fungal diversity in these overlooked habitats and biodiversity hotspots.

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.
