چکیده

Mating experiments were performed among 18 strains of Fusarium pseudograminearum, formerly recognized as the Group 1 population of F. graminearum. Heterothallic production of perithecia was observed in eight out of all 153 possible combinations. Mature asci and viable ascospores were recovered in seven of the eight combinations. Perithecia in the fertile pairings were subglobose to ovoid, dark, 120 -370 fain diam and formed directly on the surface of rice stems placed on the culture media. Asci were unitunicate and 8-spored when mature. Mature ascospores were primarily hyaline, fusoid, straight or curved, with rounded ends and (1-)3-septate. Dimensions of the teleomorph obtained for F. pseudograminearum were different from those of the G. zeae teleomorph of F. graminearum. A new species of Gibberella, G. coronicola, is described and illustrated for the teleomorph of F. pseudograminearum. The Group 1 and Group 2 populations recognized previously within F. graminearum differ in their anamorphic and teleomorphic morphology, ecological habitats, pathogenicity, mode of sexual reproduction and phylogenetic relationships.

Fusarium ananatum sp. nov. in the Gibberella fujikuroi species complex from pineapples with fruit rot in South Africa.

Pineapple (Ananas comosus) is native to South America and widely planted as a fruit crop in the tropics and sub-tropics. This plant is susceptible to a number of fungal diseases of which the most severe is fusariosis. The disease is caused by Fusarium guttiforme and occurs only in South and Central America. The occurrence of a similar disease on pineapples in South Africa has prompted a re-eval...

Mating studies were conducted on 78 isolates of Fusarium species section Liseola from rice, sugarcane and maize. From the crosses with tester strains of Gibberella fujikuroi species complex, 64.1% (50 out of 78 isolates) were cross-fertile with tester strains of mating populations A to E. The results of the mating studies showed that of the 50 isolates, 19 belonged to mating population A (Gibbe...
