Two new Phytophthora species from South African Eucalyptus plantations.
A recent study to determine the cause of collar and root rot disease outbreaks of cold tolerant Eucalyptus species in South Africa resulted in the isolation of two putative new Phytophthora species. Based on phylogenetic comparisons using the ITS and beta-tubulin gene regions, these species were shown to be distinct from known species. These differences were also supported by robust morphologic...
متن کاملCarbon storage in eucalyptus and pine plantations in South Africa.
Carbon (C) is stored by plantation forests either when ecosystems with a low C density (such as tropical grasslands) are afforested or when timber is converted to semipermanent products. If the afforestation rate is relatively constant and the plantations are not harvested immediately upon reaching maturity, the amount of C stored in trees as a result of afforestation can be calculated by a sim...
متن کاملPhytophthora cinnamomi and other fine root pathogens in north temperate pine forests.
A number of fine root pathogens, including Phytophthora cinnamomi, Pythium ultimum var. ultimum, Pythium undulatum, Pythium violae, Fusarium sp., and two incompletely identified Verticillium species, were isolated from soils taken from under Scots pine trees at five sites in north Scotland, including semi-natural forests and plantations. At least two root pathogens were recovered from each fore...
متن کاملChemical stimulation of sexual reproduction in Phytophthora and Pythium
The genera of Phytophthora and Pythium are two of the very destructive groups of plant pathogens in the world (Plaats-Niterink, 1981; Erwin and Ribeiro, 1996). They attack mainly mature plants and young seedlings, respectively, of forest, fruit, vegetable, flower, and ornamental species. These two groups of fungi are classified in the family Pythiaceae of the Oomycetes, which is excluded from t...
متن کاملThe Taxonomy and Biology of Phytophthora and Pythium
Members of the genera Phytophthora de Bary and Pythium Pringsheim are economically important “fungal-like-organisms” or “pseudofungi” which have been widely studied throughout the world but their taxonomic treatment has been highly controversial. The production of globose oogonia in the sexual reproduction has placed them in the phylum Oomycota. Although members of Oomycota are similar to all f...
