Molecular and Morphological Characterization of Endophytic Heterobasidion araucariae from Roots of Capsicum annuum L. in Korea
نویسندگان
چکیده
A species of Heterobasidion was encountered during a diversity study of endophytic fungi from healthy root tissues of chili pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) in Korea. The fungal species (CNU081069) was identified as Heterobasidion araucariae based on phylogenetic analyses of the internal transcribed spacer and translation elongation factor gene sequences. Morphological descriptions of the endophytic isolate matched well with the previous references and supported the molecular identification. The fungus Heterobasidion araucariae CNU081069 is new to Korea.

Assemblages of endophytic bacteria in chili pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) and their antifungal activity against phytopathogens in vitro
Endophytic bacteria which show antagonism against phytopathogens were isolated from healthy tissues of leaves, stems and roots of chili pepper plants (Capsicum annum L.) in 2010-2011. Antifungal activities of all collected isolates were tested against plant pathogens by dual culture method. Pathogenic fungi used in this study were Alternaria panax, Botrytis cinerea, Colletrotichum acutatum, Fus...
متن کاملCharacterization of Capsicum species using anatomical and molecular data.
Capsicum species are frequently described in terms of genetic divergence, considering morphological, agronomic, and molecular databases. However, descriptions of genetic differences based on anatomical characters are rare. We examined the anatomy and the micromorphology of vegetative and reproductive organs of several Capsicum species. Four Capsicum accessions representing the species C. annuum...

Two new species of endophytic fungi were encountered during a diversity study of healthy tissues of chili pepper plants in Korea. The species were identified as Paecilomyces inflatus and Bionectria ochroleuca based on molecular and morphological analyses. Morphological descriptions of these endophytic isolates matched well with their molecular analysis. In the present study, detailed descriptio...
متن کاملCharacterization of Capsicum annuum Genetic Diversity and Population Structure Based on Parallel Polymorphism Discovery with a 30K Unigene Pepper GeneChip
The widely cultivated pepper, Capsicum spp., important as a vegetable and spice crop world-wide, is one of the most diverse crops. To enhance breeding programs, a detailed characterization of Capsicum diversity including morphological, geographical and molecular data is required. Currently, molecular data characterizing Capsicum genetic diversity is limited. The development and application of h...

Endophytic fungi represent a trove of unexplored natural source of plant hormones like gibberellins (GAs) and indoleacetic acid (IAA). In present study, we isolated eight endophytes from the roots of drought stressed pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) plants. To assess phytohormones secreting potential, culture filtrates (CF) of endophytes were screened on GAs biosynthesis mutant Waito-C rice. Endophy...
