A new Leptographium species associated with Tomicus piniperda in south-western China.

TL;DR: After comparing the fungus from T. piniperda with similarLeptographium species, using light and scanning electron microscopy, it is concluded that it represents a new taxon, which is described here as L. yunnanense sp.
Journal Article

TL;DR: Department of Genetics, Tree Protection Co-operative Programme (TPCP), Forestry and Agricultural Biotechnology Institute (FABI), University of Pretoria,pretoria, South Africa Forestry Research Institute of Malawi, P.O. Box 270, Zomba, Malawi.
Journal ArticleDOI

Taxonomic re-evaluation of three related species of Graphium, based on morphology, ecology and phylogeny

TL;DR: Analyses of micromorphology and phylogenetic analyses of aligned 18S and ITS sequences suggest that these two species are congeneric and should be classified in Graphium but that they represent distinct species.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogenetic relationships of Cryphonectria and Endothia species, based on DNA sequence data and morphology.

TL;DR: The phylogenetic data indicated that Endothia and Cryphonectria reside in two distinct phylogenetic clades, which appear to be paraphyletic and taxonomic relationships for these fungi need to be revised.
Journal ArticleDOI

Botryosphaeriaceae associated with Eucalyptus canker diseases in Colombia

TL;DR: Two species of the Botryosphaeriaceae were found to occur on E. grandis in Colombia and could be distinguished easily based on DNA sequences of the ITS1/ITS2 rDNA region and EF1-α, in addition to conidial sizes.
