Endophytic Fungal Assemblages from Inner Bark and Twig of Terminalia arjuna W. & A. (Combretaceae)
Fungal endophytes reside in healthy tissues of all terrestrial plant taxa studied to date and are diverse and abundant in tropical woody angiosperms. Endophytic fungi were isolated from Terminalia arjuna, an important ethno pharmacological plant extensively used in ayurvedic medicines to treat heart ailments. Isolations were made from symptomless fresh

Worldwide and host-dependent variation in fungal endophyte diversity in twigs of eleven tree genera [PDF]
Arboreal fungal endophytes are a highly diverse group of organisms associated with asymptomatic tissues and some of them are latent pathogens. The knowledge of fungal endophytes is limited, because previous studies mainly focused on foliar fungal endophytes of a limited number of host species and locations. We assessed the fungal endophyte diversity in

Spatiotemporal dynamics reveal high turnover and contrasting assembly processes in fungal communities across contiguous habitats of tropical forests [PDF]
Background The variation in fungal community composition within a single habitat space has been extensively studied in forest ecosystems. However, the spatial and temporal distribution of fungi across contiguous habitats, particularly at a local scale ...

Decomposition of lignin and holocellulose study was conducted in Acacia dealbata Link (Mimosoideae) leaves, twigs and barks from the virgin forest ecosystem of Doddabetta belt of Nilgiris during monsoon period June, July and August 2013. Four lignin and holocellulose degrading fungi which were dominating the A. dealbata forest ecosystem were identified,

Thousand cankers disease (TCD) is a disease complex caused by the fungus Geosmithia morbida Kolařik (Ascomycota, Hypocreales) and its vector Pityophthorus juglandis Blackman 1928 (Coleoptera, Scolytinae; walnut twig beetle, WTB). Since the mid-1990s, the disease was responsible for widespread mortality of many walnut species in the United States (4 ...

2019–2020 Florida Citrus Production Guide: Melanose
Management of melanose, caused by the fungus Diaporthe citri, is often necessary in mature groves where fruit is intended for the fresh market, particularly if recently killed twigs and wood are present because of freezes or other causes.

Rapid Identification of Diaporthe citri by Gene Sequence Analysis [PDF]
Citrus melanoses caused by Diaporthe citri, has been one of the serious diseases in many citrus orchards of Jeju Island. To protect melanose in citrus farms, a fast and exact diagnosis method is necessary. In this study, diseased leaves and dieback twigs
