1. {"_":"Taxonomy, biogeography and evolution of thirty-four taxa in Clade 7a including eleven new species from natural forests and updated descriptions for , and the ' hybrid complex'.","i":["Phytophthora","P. fragariae","P. rubi","P. ×alni"]}
PMID:日期:2026-07-28Over the past three decades, surveys in natural and managed ecosystems, driven mainly by forest biosecurity issues, have greatly expanded knowledge of the global diversity and biogeography of the plant pathogen genus . In subclade 7a alone, 16 new species were described raising the number of validly described species in this subclade to 18. Recently, in further surveys conducted in natural forests of Japan, Vietnam, Europe and North America, 11 more new Clade 7a species and one other 7a taxon have now been identified. All are considered to be endemic to the surveyed sites. They are formally described here, including their morphological properties, colony and temperature-growth characteristics and their phylogenetic relationships. Informal, updated descriptions without nomenclatural act are also presented for the known species , , , × and ×. With now 34 taxa including hybrids, Clade 7a is currently the largest subclade. It is essentially a Northern Hemisphere subclade, with a disjunct distribution in North America, Europe and Asia which probably reflects an original Laurasian ancestral distribution ~90-80 Mya and subsequent post-Laurasian migrations and radiations. It is comprised of predominantly soilborne and aquatic species with non-papillate non-caducous sporangia, though some may have facultative adaptations to a degree of aerial dispersal. The largest diversity hotspots are in Southeast and East Asia, and both adaptive sympatric and non-adaptive radiations are indicated in the data. All 22 'pure' or non-hybrid species are self-fertile and exhibit relatively low nuclear heterozygosity levels. In contrast, high heterozygosity levels, relatively high numbers of tri- and partly tetra-allelic sites and maternal lines partly shared with other Clade 7a taxa are consistent with ten of the taxa (30 %) originating via interspecific hybridisation. Of these five are self-fertile, but unusually, given their likely self-fertile parents, the other five, including the ' × hybrid complex', have an A1/A2 or outcrossing breeding system. Some of the hybrids, such as the '. × hybrid complex', are known to have emerged as a result of anthropogenic disturbance events. Numerous species, including several in Clade 7a, have become highly damaging pathogens of trees and agricultural crops as a result of historical introductions via global plant trade. However, for the 11 new species described here, no symptoms were observed at the natural sample sites and their natural and potential hosts are unknown. The same applies to well over 150 species in other Clades and subclades, representing a significant plant health evidence gap. It is recommended that the biosecurity risk to forests, natural ecosystems and agriculture posed by these previously scientifically unknown taxa be actively investigated. T. Jung, N.M. Chi, I.

2. {"_":"The genus (, ) with a focus on neotropical species with black stipes.","i":["Polyporus","Polyporales","Basidiomycota"]}
PMID:日期:2026-07-21The generic limits of have remained unstable and poorly justified despite recent phylogenetic studies. In the present paper, we address this problem by investigating the taxonomy of 43 Neotropical species (, ), with a primary focus on 32 species with a black stipe (the so-called melanopodous species). Based on a three-gene (ITS + LSU + ) phylogeny of the (including 94 species), we argue for keeping all melanopodous spp. within a single redefined genus, , and discuss three alternative reclassification approaches for the genus. As re-established here, forms a strongly supported clade sister to and the group. We further revise the taxonomy of the group (with 12 accepted Neotropical species), complex (nine Neotropical species), complex (six Neotropical species), and complex (five Neotropical species), based on ITS and, in the case of group, also markers. This revision is supplemented by thorough type studies of existing taxa. Eight melanopodous Neotropical species are described as new. Additionally, nine other Neotropical spp., with pale stipes or sessile basidiocarps, are reinstated, and three more are described as new to science. Available ITS sequences point to a higher species diversity in , and groups than currently recognized. The identity of five extraneous melanopodous species is addressed, and 25 species are treated under excluded or insufficiently known taxa. Our results demonstrate that current splitting schemes of s. lat. are difficult to justify and instead support a redefined, more inclusive concept of the genus.

3. {"_":"Taxonomy, phylogeny and diversity of hyperparasites and their allied entomopathogens in .","i":["Hypocreales"]}
PMID:日期:2026-05-20Hyperparasitic fungi associated with hypocrealean entomopathogens play a pivotal yet underexplored role in regulating fungal-arthropod interaction networks. Despite their frequent occurrence in nature, the taxonomic diversity and evolutionary relationships of these hyperparasites remain poorly resolved. In this study, we conducted an integrative taxonomic investigation of hyperparasites associated with hypocrealean entomopathogenic fungi, together with their closely allied entomopathogenic taxa. Multilocus phylogenetic analyses based on LSU, ITS, SSU, , , and were employed to reconstruct phylogenetic relationships, and molecular clock analyses were conducted independently to infer evolutionary timescales of families within . Morphological examinations were used to corroborate species delimitation and generic circumscription. Our results substantially expand the known diversity of this group, revealing one novel family, , two new genera ( and ), and 18 new species. In addition, three new combinations, seven new host, geographic, or asexual morph records, and two previously described species are documented, comprising a total of 30 species distributed across 18 genera and six families. is proposed to accommodate , , , , , , , and . Updated descriptions and emended generic concepts of and are provided based on newly collected material. This study advances our understanding of the taxonomy, evolutionary history, and hidden diversity of hyperparasitic fungi allied to hypocrealean entomopathogens, and provides a robust framework for elucidating tripartite host-pathogen-hyperparasite interactions in fungal ecology.

4. Novel insights into the phylogenetic and metabolic diversity of preussia-like fungi.
PMID:日期:2026-05-20The genus (, ) represents one of the most diverse and metabolically active groups of ascomycetes. The genus is characterized by a complex taxonomic history involving the genera and , which some authors consider synonyms of . However, the circumscription of these genera remains controversial, and the status of numerous species is unresolved. The present study aims to characterize strains of s.l. recovered during diversity surveys on marine and xerophytic substrates, explore their secondary metabolite profiles, and improve our understanding of the diversity within this group. The obtained strains, as well as strains from the CBS culture collection and exsiccata from different fungaria, were characterized morphologically, and molecular phylogenetic analyses were conducted on strains available in culture. Metabolite profiles were developed for representative strains using mass spectrometry data (MS/MS). Molecular alignments comprised the nuclear ribosomal subunits, consisting of partial sequences for the 18S small subunit (SSU) nrDNA, the internal transcribed spacer regions and intervening 5.8S nrDNA (ITS), as well as partial sequences for the 28S large subunit (LSU) nrDNA. Additional regions within protein-encoding genes were used, including the DNA-directed RNA polymerase II second-largest subunit () and translation elongation factor 1-α () regions. These data were used to reconstruct a robust phylogenetic framework for s.l. and to delineate lineage structure and generic boundaries. Ten well-supported lineages were resolved and integrated with metabolite profiles to inform taxonomic decisions. Our results support the recognition of and as distinct genera, the re-establishment of , and the introduction of four new genera, 11 new species, 18 new combinations, and one new name. Moreover, epi- and lectotypes have been designated to stabilize the taxonomy of some recognized species. This study provides a comprehensive framework for future taxonomic, phylogenetic, and chemical investigations within .

7. Soil ascomycetes from Spain. XV. New and noteworthy fungi from Gran Canaria Island (Canary Islands archipelago).
PMID:日期:2026-03-04Gran Canaria is the third island in surface area and altitude of the Canary Islands archipelago (Spain), located in the Atlantic Ocean. Its geomorphology provides a wide range of ecological niches that, together with its geographical isolation, have given rise to numerous endemic species of animals and plants. Despite extensive studies on their flora and fauna, research on microscopic fungi remains limited. Therefore, to assess the biodiversity of geophilic microscopic fungi of Gran Canaria, 12 samples were collected from the topsoil layer in different sites of , in , at the North of the island. The samples were processed by direct sprinkling onto glycerol 18 % agar (G18) and ascospore agar (AA), by activation of dormant spores using 5 % acetic acid followed by plating onto potato-carrot extract agar (PCA), and by Toma-Karling-Vanbreuseghem () hair baiting method. Incubation was carried out at 25 °C and 37 °C. The fungi were isolated in pure culture, and the strains were phenotypically characterized and preliminary identified using molecular data by comparing the nucleotide sequences of one or more phylogenetic informative markers using the BLAST search tool. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted when it was necessary. A total of 199 fungal strains were obtained, being assigned to 37 genera and 76 species, including four new genera, 17 new species and three new combinations distributed across the family (12), and the genera (2), (1), (1) and (1). In conclusion, the volcanic soils of Gran Canaria Island show a high fungal diversity, particularly within the family , highlighting that the Macaronesia is an underexplored geographic region reservoir of micromycetes.

8. {"_":"New insights into acremonium-like fungi in : A taxonomic and phylogenetic perspective.","i":["Hypocreales"]}
PMID:日期:2026-02-06Acremonium-like fungi represent a morphologically reduced and polyphyletic group with ecological roles ranging from saprophytes and endophytes to opportunistic pathogens, and with demonstrated potential for producing bioactive secondary metabolites. Convergent morphologies and incomplete molecular data have long hampered their taxonomic resolution. Recent studies, combining morphological features, phylogenetic analyses, and ecological and host associations have classified acremonium-like species within the orders , , , and . Furthermore, s. str. is restricted to the family . However, many acremonium-like species remain to be discovered, and there are still gaps in our understanding of their ecological functions and potential applications in biotechnology. In this study, we evaluated 402 isolates of acremonium-like fungi from the CBS culture collection, including isolates that had not yet undergone molecular analysis. Isolates were analysed based on morphological characters and molecular phylogeny, for which DNA sequence data were obtained from the internal transcribed spacer regions 1 and 2 and 5.8S nuclear ribosomal RNA gene (ITS), partial 28S large subunit (LSU) nrDNA, and the protein-coding genes RNA polymerase II second largest subunit () and translation elongation factor 1-alpha (). Our results place those isolates into the orders and , distributed in 18 families and 149 species. The most represented family is , followed by and . We introduce two new families, seven new genera, and 33 novel species, along with four new combinations. This study provides a robust phylogenetic framework for the order , resolving 29 families, thereby stablishing a strong foundation for future ecological, medical, and biotechnological studies on this taxonomically complex group.

PMID:日期:2025-10-04The present study investigates the species boundaries, evolutionary relationships, and host-parasite interfaces of dimorphic mycoparasites that were previously assigned to , , and based on morphological similarities Our comparison of recently collected and cultivated samples with the type specimens of and shows that both groups are species complexes, of which the taxa can be differentiated based on morphological and ecological characters. By integrating the results of a seven-locus dataset (SSU, LSU, ITS, , , , and mitochondrial ) and detailed micromorphological comparisons of the investigated specimens, we show for the first time that these three groups of mycoparasites belong to (). We applied a polyphasic species concept involving morphology, phylogeny, and ecology to delineate and circumscribe these and new genera. The genus comprises six species. and the newly proposed are intrahymenial mycoparasites producing haustorial cells and establishing fusion pore interaction with their Dacrymycetous host. Based on microscopical examination, we show that is a member of the genus . Based on the molecular phylogenetic reconstruction, we found that three lichen-associated fungi which are only known from a yeast morph are nested within , , , and . The genus is newly introduced for three mycoparasitic species inhabiting members of the corticioid genus (, ) and causing gall-like malformations of the host basidiome. Microscopic investigation shows that is a member of this genus. species display a yet undiscovered type of host-parasite interface, in which the mycoparasites produce short protrusions on their hyphae adjacent to the host hyphae. The lysis of the host cell wall takes place at points of contact with parasite protrusions, but no rupture of the host plasma membrane or nanometer-fusion pore formation was observed. The updated phylogeny obtained in this study by including mycoparasites showed that the genera and as currently circumscribed are polyphyletic. To resolve this polyphyly, we introduce two new genera, and , and recombine species comprising the clade and a clade consisting of and , respectively.

10. {"_":"From chaos to tranquillity: a modern approach to the identification, nomenclature and phylogeny of , and other , including an updated accepted species list.","i":["Aspergillus","Penicillium","Eurotiales"]}
PMID:日期:2025-09-30is a diverse and speciose order and includes economically important genera like , , and . Historically, species identifications based on morphology are challenging. The publication of accepted species lists and the availability of representative DNA sequences for type strains have contributed greatly towards accurate species identification and facilitated the description of many new species. However, despite current advancements, a proportion of newly described species within these taxonomically challenging genera represent, in fact, existing species, which raises obvious concerns. This study thus aimed to further modernise the taxonomy of by addressing key challenges in species identification and classification. Our study objectives were threefold: 1) to review species described after 2023, 2) update the accepted species list, and 3) release a curated DNA sequence dataset to facilitate future species identifications. We conclude that a move to a phylogenetic species concept is necessary but continue to support the inclusion of morphological descriptions and, where possible, associated secondary metabolite, exoenzyme, physiology and ecological data when introducing new species. Based on our phylogenetic analyses, we accept 130 of 171 species described since 2023 but reduce 41 to synonyms. Furthermore, we also reduced 17 species described pre-2023 to synonyms. Our list now contains 1393 species classified into four families and 26 genera, with (n = 465), (n = 598) and (n = 236) containing the most species. To aid sequence-based identifications and species descriptions under a phylogenetic species concept, we release a curated DNA reference sequence database containing 18837 DNA sequences (3867 ITS, 5277 , 5110 and 4583 ) generated from 5325 strains. Sequences were selected to best cover the infraspecies variation under our current understanding of each species. The species list and sequence database will be kept up to date as new information becomes available and will remain available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.16605949.
