Anatomical variation and defence responses of juvenile Eucalyptus nitens leaves to Mycosphaerella leaf disease

TL;DR: It is suggested that leaves with higher constitutive proportions of cell dense palisade layers and thinner leaves can partition infected leaf sections from healthy tissue more effectively as less cellular differentiation is required to form an effective necrophylactic periderm.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Ophiostoma clavatum species complex: a newly defined group in the Ophiostomatales including three novel taxa.

TL;DR: Phylogenetic analyses of the ITS, βT, TEF-1α and CAL gene sequences revealed that the investigated isolates represent a complex of seven cryptic species, and confirmed that ITS data is insufficient to delineate species in some Ophiostoma species clusters.
