چکیده
The Research Center for Pathogenic Fungi and Microbial Toxicoses, Chiba University is the only organization in Japan to possess a series isolates of Coccidioides spp., which are the most virulent pathogenic fungi and which are treated as biosafety level 3 microorganisms. Recently, the genus Coccidioides has been classified into two species, C. immitis and C. posadasii, based on their endemic areas and genotyping; the former species is endemic to the state of California, and the latter is endemic to other parts of North and South America. We reevaluated 19 isolates of Coccidioides immitis stored in our center using a multiple gene analysis. Five isolates were identified as C. immitis and 14 as C. posadasii. Their sequence information in GenBank will help to identify the two genospecies of Coccidioides spp.

Euonymus spp. (L.) are some of the most important ornamental plants. Fungal plant pathogens of ornamental plants are the most important factors causing damage. In this research two pathogenic fungal species were isolated from naturally infected Euonymus species and identified. In order to isolation of fungi from disease tissues, the obtained samples were cultured on potato dextrose agar medium....
