The eastern redbud (Cercis canadensis L.) is a popular woody ornamental plant native to eastern North America that is planted in the landscape chiefly for its showy early spring bloom. The genus Cercis (family Fabaceae) contains, depending on author, 7 to 13 species or subspecies that occur in North America, Europe, and Asia (4,7,8). Species range in size from small shrubs to trees, tolerate fu...

Abstract Purpose Wheat sheath blight mainly infected by Rhizoctonia cerealis is one of the soil-borne fungal diseases wheat worldwide and prevalent in major growing areas China at present. This study aimed to evaluate antifungal activity 163 endophytic fungi on R. . Antifungal strains were identified their biosynthetic potential was analysed. Methods The evaluated via dual-culture antagonism as...

Endophytic fungi isolated from medicinal plants have high diversity and the secondary metabolites produced biological activity. been subject of many studies on their activity, one which is jambu mawar (Syzygium jambos (L.) Alston). S. has long used as a traditional medicine to treat infections caused by pathogenic bacteria in parts world, including South Sumatra. This study purposed explore end...

Identification of fungi and the International Code of Nomenclature underpinning this process, rests strongly on the characterisation of morphological structures. Yet, the value of these characters to define species in many groups has become questionable or even superfluous. This has emerged as DNA-based techniques have increasingly revealed cryptic species and species complexes. This problem is...
