The identification and quantification of individual algal species remains difficult, time consuming, requiring a great deal of expertise and experience. Alternative to traditional, morphology-based methods, molecular techniques need less expertise for the detection of cryptic species within the bioindicator community. Although these methods require detailed knowledge of the molecular diversity ...

During a survey of aquatic fungi from Anzali Lagoon in Iran, several fungal specimens were isolated freshwater habitats. Morphological evidence and comparing sequencing based on rDNA (ITS LSU) protein-coding genes (TEF1 TUB2) showed that some isolates belong to undescribed species. These Arthrobotrys Sarocladium, two ascomycetes genera. hyrcanus, sp. nov., differs closely related species such a...

Abstract Four new Keratinophyton species ( Ascomycota , Pezizomycotina Onygenales ), K. gollerae lemmensii straussii, and wagneri isolated from soil samples originating Europe (Austria, Italy, Slovakia) are described illustrated. The taxa well supported by phylogenetic analysis of the internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) region, combined data ITS nuclear large subunit (LSU) rDNA, their phen...

Serpula himantioides is a widely distributed saprotrophic fungus that causes root and butt rot in various tree species. In Japan, associated with S. observed Chamaecyparis pisifera Abies sachalinensis. Previous studies have shown includes five phylogenetically defined cryptic lineages, but the placement of Japanese isolates remains unclear. To clarify phylogenetic relationship between known we ...

Khám phá mối quan hệ phát sinh loài giữa các đơn vị phân loại cung cấp thông tin trọng cho khoa học. Nghiên cứu của chi Macrosolen được thực hiện dựa trên bộ dữ liệu tử 27 mẫu nghiên với năm vùng DNA bao gồm gen lục lạp rbcL, matK, và trnL-F nhân (SSU rDNA LSU rDNA). Các phương pháp Maximum likelihood (ML) Bayesian inference (BI) sử dụng để xây dựng cây loài. kết quả tích ủng hộ mạnh mẽ rằng kh...

A new species, Cryptomonas tropica sp. nov., is described from Cat Tien National Park (Vietnam) based on morphological and molecular data. Strains of the species were isolated soil, which an unusual environment for photosynthetic cryptomonads. This has elliptical cells in ventral view a single plastid notched into several irregular lobes without microscopically visible pyrenoids. Phylogenetic r...

Monitoring of harmful algal bloom (HAB) species in coastal waters is important for assessment of environmental impacts associated with HABs. Co-occurrence of multiple cryptic species such as toxic dinoflagellate Ostreopsis species make reliable microscopic identification difficult, so the employment of molecular tools is often necessary. Here we developed new qPCR method by which cells of crypt...
