TL;DR: The availability of these genome data will provide opportunities to resolve longstanding questions regarding the taxonomy of species in these genera, and may contribute to the understanding of the lifestyles through comparative studies with closely related organisms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two new Fusicoccum species from Acacia and Eucalyptus in Venezuela, based on morphology and DNA sequence data.
TL;DR: Two new Fusicoccum species are characterized, isolated from Eucalyptus and Acacia trees in Venezuela, based on morphological features in culture and comparisons of DNA sequence data, which show that they are anamorphs of Botryosphaeria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic diversity of Cryphonectria cubensis isolates in South Africa
TL;DR: A low degree of genetic diversity indicated that sexual reproduction is absent or rare in the South African C. cubensis population, which supports the view that the fungus was recently introduced into South Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conspecificity of Endothia eugeniae and Cryphonectria cubensis: a re-evaluation based on morphology and DNA sequence data
TL;DR: The synonymy of the two fungi is recognized but evidence is provided that other fungi, more closely related to Cryphonectria spp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relative Pathogenicity of Cryphonectria cubensis on Eucalyptus Clones Differing in Their Resistance to C. cubensis
TL;DR: Van Heerden et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated the relative pathogenicity of Cryphonectria cubensis on Eucalyptus clones differing in their resistance to C. cubensis.
