Occurrence and Morpho-Molecular Identification of <i>Botryosphaeriales</i> Species from Guizhou Province, China

<i>Botryosphaeriales</i> is an important order of diverse fungal pathogens, saprobes, and endophytes distributed worldwide. Recent studies of <i>Botryosphaeriales</i> in China have discovered a broad range of species, some of which have not been formerly described. In this st...

Occurrence and Morpho-Molecular Identification of <i>Botryosphaeriales</i> Species from Guizhou Province, China
description <i>Botryosphaeriales</i> is an important order of diverse fungal pathogens, saprobes, and endophytes distributed worldwide. Recent studies of <i>Botryosphaeriales</i> in China have discovered a broad range of species, some of which have not been formerly described. In this study, 60 saprobic isolates were obtained from decaying woody hosts in southwestern China. The isolates were compared with other species using morphological characteristics, and available DNA sequence data was used to infer phylogenetic analyses based on the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), large subunit rRNA gene (LSU), and translation elongation factor 1-α (<i>tef</i>) loci.
