Reconsidering species boundaries in the Ceratocystis paradoxa complex, including a new species from oil palm and cacao in Cameroon.
The Ceratocystis paradoxa complex accommodates a group of fungal pathogens that have become specialized to infect mostly monocotyledonous plants. Four species currently are recognized in this group, including C. paradoxa, which has a widespread distribution and broad host range. In this study, multigene phylogenetic analyses involving sequences of the ITS, β-tubulin and TEF-1α gene loci, in com...
متن کاملSpecies of Colletotrichum associated with citrus trees in Iran
Colletotrichum species are associated with citrus plants as pathogens, saprobes and endophytes. According to the most recent multigene phylogenetic analysis, a lot of changes were happened in the taxonomy and species delimitation in the genus Colletotrichum. In this investigation, 292 Colletotrichum isolates were obtained from leaves, fruits and stems of Citrus species at Golestan, Mazandaran, ...
متن کاملGenetic Variability and Host Specialization in the Latin American Clade of Ceratocystis fimbriata.
ABSTRACT The Ceratocystis fimbriata complex includes many undescribed species that cause wilt and canker diseases of many economically important plants. Phylogenetic analyses of DNA sequences have delineated three geographic clades within Ceratocystis fimbriata. This study examined host specialization in the Latin American clade, in which a number of lineages were identified using sequences of ...
متن کاملShade coffee farms promote genetic diversity of native trees
when caterpillars fed on fruit-bearing pepper plants. Here, although initially feeding on leaves, the beet armyworms soon moved into the maturing fruits (Figure 1C). Our results indicate that visiting honeybees provide plants with a totally unexpected advantage: bees flying around plants inhibit the feeding intensity of herbivorous caterpillars, resulting in a clear reduction of leaf damage. Th...
متن کاملCeratocystis wilt of cacao-a disease of increasing importance.
ABSTRACT Ceratocystis cacaofunesta (formerly C. fimbriata) causes a lethal wilt disease of cacao (Theobroma cacao) in the Caribbean and Central and South America. Recent studies employing phylogenetics, intersterility, and host range separate the cacao pathogen from other strains of the C. fimbriata complex. Ceratocystis wilt has been managed through genetic resistance, but the disease is an em...
