Novel <i>Botrytis</i> and <i>Cladosporium</i> Species Associated with Flower Diseases of Macadamia in Australia

Macadamia (<i>Macadamia integrifolia</i>) is endemic to eastern Australia and produces an edible nut that is widely cultivated in commercial orchards globally. A survey of fungi associated with the grey and green mold symptoms of macadamia flowers found mostly species of <i>Botryti...
