many powdery mildew fungi occur as anamorphic state on different host plants in guilan province, iran. the species have usually been identified as oidium spp. in order to identify teleomorphic species using anamorphic characteristics and host range, several infected plant specimens were collected from around guilan province during 2004-2011. based upon  the  results of the study 25 species were...

In the present article, two new mitosporic spccies are introdued, namely: Cercospora fraxinicola Ershad, sp. nov. on Fraxinus rotundifolia and Ramularia rubicola Ershad, sp. nov. on Rubus caesicus.

We investigated the relative importance of specific Arabidopsis thaliana genes in conferring resistance to bacterial versus fungal pathogens. We first developed a pathosystem involving the infection of Arabidopsis accession Columbia with a virulent isolate of the obligate biotrophic fungal pathogen Erysiphe orontii. E. orontii elicited the accumulation of mRNAs corresponding to the defense-rela...

the erysiphaceae are obligatory parasitic fungi that cause powdery mildew disease of green space plants. during this study, powdery mildew fungi were collected and identified from different localities of ardabil landscape, iran. erysiphe rayssiae (on spartium junceum), erysiphe robiniae var. robiniae (on robinia pseudoacacia) and euoidium cf. agerati (on ageratum houstonianum)are new records fo...

In this study, pollen grains were sampled by using a Lanzoni trap (Lanzoni VPPS 2000) in atmosphere of Bursa in 1999 and 2000. During two years. a total of 13,991 pollen grains/m3 which belonged to 59 taxa and unidentified pollen grains were recorded. A total of 7.768 pollen grains were identified in 1999 and a total of 6.223 in 2000. From these taxa, 36 belong to arboreal and 23 taxa to non-ar...

We investigated range-wide phylogeographic variation in three European ash species (Fraxinus sp., Oleaceae). Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) microsatellites were typed in the thermophilous Fraxinus angustifolia and Fraxinus ornus and the observed haplotypes and the geographic distribution of diversity were compared to cpDNA data previously obtained in the more cold-tolerant Fraxinus excelsior. We found...
