In efforts to record pathogenic fungal diversity on ornamental plants of Pakistan, infected leaves Chlorophytum comosum were collected from commercial nursery in Lahore, Pakistan. Investigation leafspot symptoms led identification an ascomycete fungus, Thielavia terrestris. Analysis for involved morphological, microscopic and molecular methods. ITS-nrDNA sequence data used construct phylogeneti...

The chloride channel antagonists anthracene-9-carboxylic acid, ethacrynic acid and niflumic acid were found to be fungistatic and morphogenic when tested against the ascomycete Neurospora crassa. Potency increased with decreasing pH, suggesting that the protonated forms of the compounds were active. Niflumic acid produced the most pronounced growth aberrations which may reflect an ability to ac...

Four new botrydial derivatives, hymendial (1), 7 alpha-hydroxydihydrobotrydial (2), 7 alpha-hydroxy-10-O-methyldihydrobotrydial (4), and 7 alpha-acetoxy-15 alpha-methoxy-10-O-methyl-dihydrobotrydial (5) were isolated together with dihydrobotrydial (3) from the culture fluid of the ascomycete Hymenoscyphus epiphyllus. In addition, cytochalasin H (6a), 18-deoxycytochalasin H (6b) and (+)-mellein ...

Hymenoscyphus caudatus (P. Karst.) Dennis is given as new record for the mycobiota of Turkey. The macro and micromorphological characters species are provided together with localities collection, voucher numbers photographs related to its micromorphologies. .
