Article Synopsis
  • A study conducted between 1998 and 2020 identified 43 new species in diverse ecosystems across Europe, Asia, and the Americas, using genetic analysis to classify them into existing and new subclades within a major clade.
  • The evolutionary history of this clade includes separations before and after the breakup of Gondwana, leading to distinct groups with varying lifestyles, such as soilborne and aerial species.
  • High levels of hybridization were observed in some subclades, indicating that environmental and breeding systems may encourage the emergence of new species, revealing significant gaps in our understanding of potential pathogen threats to ecosystems.

During extensive surveys of global diversity 14 new species detected in natural ecosystems in Chile, Indonesia, USA (Louisiana), Sweden, Ukraine and Vietnam were assigned to major Clade 10 based on a multigene phylogeny of nine nuclear and three mitochondrial gene regions. Clade 10 now comprises three subclades. Subclades 10a and 10b contain species with nonpapillate sporangia, a range of breeding systems and a mainly soil- and waterborne lifestyle.

This paper is the fourth contribution in the Genera of Phytopathogenic Fungi (GOPHY) series. The series provides morphological descriptions and information about the pathology, distribution, hosts and disease symptoms, as well as DNA barcodes for the taxa covered. Moreover, 12 whole-genome sequences for the type or new species in the treated genera are provided.

infections are followed by histological alterations, physiological and metabolomic adjustments in the host but very few studies contemplate these changes simultaneously. seedlings were inoculated with A1 and A2 mating types of the heterothallic and with the homothallic to identify plant physiological and metabolomic changes accompanying microscope observations of the colonization process one, two and three weeks after inoculation. -infected plants died at a faster pace than those inoculated with and showed higher mortality than A1-infected plants.
