Leptographium elegans: a new species from Taiwan [PDF]
Amongst collections of ophiostomatoid fungi occurring on woody hosts in Taiwan a new species Leptographium elegans, was isolated from freshly cut surfaces of Chamaecyparis formosensis which had been logged for milling. It is distinguished from other species by its short conidiophores and conidiogenous cells, as well as the presence of a Sporothrix ...

Mating type markers reveal high levels of heterothallism in Leptographium sensu lato [PDF]
Species of Leptographium sensu lato (Ophiostomatales, Ascomycetes) are sap-stain fungi vectored by bark beetles (Coleoptera, Scolytinae) and some species cause or are associated with tree diseases.

Bark beetles form symbiotic associations with multiple species of fungi that supplement their metabolic needs. However, the relative contributions of each symbiont to the nutrition of bark beetles have been largely unexplored.

Genetic variation in the genus Leptographium with special reference to Leptographium wageneri [PDF]
The objectives of this research were to determine genetic variation in Leptographium and how it corresponds to the taxonomy of the genus. The similarity of 88 strains of 27 species of Leptographium was studied using enzyme electrophoresis.

Pathogenicity of Leptographium Species Associated with Loblolly Pine Decline [PDF]
Freshly lifted seedlings and 21-year-old trees of loblolly pine were wound-inoculated with Leptographium species recovered from the soil and/or roots of trees with loblolly decline symptoms in central Alabama. Seedlings inoculated with L. procerum in the greenhouse produced significantly fewer root initials and a smaller root mass than control ...

Large shift in symbiont assemblage in the invasive red turpentine beetle.
Changes in symbiont assemblages can affect the success and impact of invasive species, and may provide knowledge regarding the invasion histories of their vectors. Bark beetle symbioses are ideal systems to study changes in symbiont assemblages resulting

Fungal Volatiles Can Act as Carbon Sources and Semiochemicals to Mediate Interspecific Interactions Among Bark Beetle-Associated Fungal Symbionts. [PDF]
Mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) has killed millions of hectares of pine forests in western North America. Beetle success is dependent upon a community of symbiotic fungi comprised of Grosmannia clavigera, Ophiostoma montium, and ...
