CIFOR–ICRAF publishes over 750 publications every year on agroforestry, forests and climate change, landscape restoration, rights, forest policy and much more – in multiple languages.

CIFOR–ICRAF addresses local challenges and opportunities while providing solutions to global problems for forests, landscapes, people and the planet.

We deliver actionable evidence and solutions to transform how land is used and how food is produced: conserving and restoring ecosystems, responding to the global climate, malnutrition, biodiversity and desertification crises. In short, improving people’s lives.

Pseudophaeocytostroma bambusicola gen. et sp. nov. (Diaporthaceae) from bamboo in Yunnan, P.R. China

Export citation

Phaeocytostroma species (Diaporthaceae, Diaporthales, Sordariomycetes) are mainly associated with grasses (Poaceae) and are considered important pathogens of maize and sugarcane. In the present study, a phaeocytostroma-like taxon was collected from bamboo culms in Yunnan, China and characterized using morphological and multigene phylogenetic analyses. The fungus was characterized by uni- to bi-locular conidiomata, papillate ostioles, septate, filiform paraphyses and brown, oblong to ellipsoid, aseptate, conidia, with obtuse ends. Phylogenetic analyses inferred from the combined dataset of ITS, LSU, and TEF1-α regions showed that the phaeocytostroma-like taxon constituted an independent lineage clustered with P. sacchari distant from Phaeocytostroma sensu stricto. Hence, the novel genus Pseudophaeocytostroma is introduced to accommodate the new species Ps. bambusicola. Pseudophaeocytostroma bambusicola clustered with P. sacchari strains CBS 275.34, km-1, UMICH-1, 135 in the present phylogenetic analyses. However, these strains are not the ex-type strains of P. sacchari and some of them lack morphological descriptions and remain unpublished. Therefore, we treat these strains as Ps. “sacchari” herein until the type strain of P. sacchari is verified. The pairwise nucleotide comparison of ITS and TEF1-α sequence data and a pairwise homoplasy index test between Ps. bambusicola and Ps. “sacchari” provided further evidence to support Ps. bambusicola as a distinct species. The morphological characteristics and phylogenetic relationship of Ps. bambusicola and other related Phaeocytostroma species are also compared and discussed.
