Meiotic drive is the preferential transmission of a particular allele during sexual reproduction. The phenomenon is observed as spore killing in multiple fungi. In natural populations of Podospora anserina, seven spore killer types (Psks) have been identified through classical genetic analyses. Here we show that the Spok gene family underlies the P...
More specimens of Hydnotrya have been collected from southwestern China in recent years. Morphological and molecular analyses showed that they belonged to three species of Hydnotrya , of which two are new to science, H. oblongispora and H. zayuensis . The third one was H. laojunshanensis , previously reported in 2013. The new species are described,...
Mitochondrial F1Fo-ATP-synthase dimers play a critical role in shaping and maintenance of mitochondrial ultrastructure. Previous studies have revealed that ablation of the F1Fo-ATP-synthase assembly factor PaATPE of the ascomycete Podospora anserina strongly affects cristae formation, increases hydrogen peroxide levels, impairs mitochondrial functi...
The mitochondrial permeability transition pore plays a key role in programmed cell death and the induction of autophagy. Opening of the pore is regulated by the mitochondrial peptidyl prolyl-cis, trans-isomerase cyclophilin D (CYPD). Previously it was shown in the aging model organism Podospora anserina that PaCYPD abundance increases during aging...
Various components in the cell are responsible for maintaining physiological levels of
reactive oxygen species (ROS). Several different enzymes exist that can convert or degrade ROS;
among them are the superoxide dismutases (SODs). If left unchecked, ROS can cause damage that
leads to pathology, can contribute to aging, and may, ultimately, cause d...

... However, the tub2 gene is mostly similar to Sordaria macrospora (FGSC 4818) and S. superba (CBS 784.96) with 99% similarity, the tub2 gene of other species is not available (Table 1). From morphology, Sordaria superba is different, as the ascospores are wrapped by a distinct gelatinous sheath with a single basal germ pore (Yul et al. 2010), our isolate is more similar to S. macrospora (ascomata: 370-400 (500) × 250-300 µm VS. 340-420 × 270-380 μm; and asci: 160-175 ×20 VS. 20-30 × 15-20 μm) (Ivanová et al. 2015). The phylogenetic tree indicated that our Sordaria macrospora KUNCC22-12509 is complex with the other species that have high similarity in ITS, and LSU genes (Figure 2), and this problem may be caused by lacking tub2 genes, therefore, our isolate KUNCC22-12509 is identified based on morphological features (Table 2) coupled with BLASTn results and phylogenetic analyses as Sordaria macrospora which is a new host and country record. ...

American bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) is an alien invasive species in southwest China native to the central and eastern United States and southeastern Canada. After the 19 th century, they extensively appear in aquaculture and natural environments worldwide as a delicious food but also creating a serious threat to the survival and development of native species. In the early rainy season, dead American bullfrog larvae floating on the water of unnamed ponds in Qujing Normal University, Yunnan Province, China were collected and brought to the mycology laboratory, and three interesting fungal strains were isolated from their intestinal contents. Phylogenetic analyses were carried out on the resultant isolates based on multiple gene sequences (ITS, LSU, rpb2, tub2, tef1-α), and results confirmed that the three strains belong to three species, namely; Boothiella tetraspora, Sordaria macrospora and Trichoderma virens. The morphological characteristics were also used to describe the fungal taxa. Photographic plates, descriptions, and phylogenetic trees that show the placements of the fungal species are reported herein.

Досліджено видову різноманітність та поширення аскоміцетів на території регіонального ландшафтного парку «Сеймський». У 23 локалітетах парку виявлено 114 видів неліхенізованих сумчастих грибів. Серед них клас Leotiomycetes представлений 41 видом, Dothideomycetes – 34, Sordariomycetes – 23, Pezizomycetes – 15, Taphrinomycetes – 1. Серед порядків найчисельнішими є Erysiphales – 34 види, Capnodiales – 20, Pezizales – 15, Pleosporales – 12, Sordariales – 11, Xylariales – 8 і Helotiales – 7. У родинному спектрі домінують представники чотирьох родин: Erysiphaceae – 34 види, Mycosphaerellaceae – 19, Ascobolaceae та Podosporaceae – по 7 видів, представники яких об’єднують 58,8% загальної кількості виявлених видів аскоміцетів. Наведено список зареєстрованих видів грибів та асоційованих з ними рослин-живителів і живильних субстратів. 103 з виявлених видів аскоміцетів наводяться вперше для території парку. Знахідка інвазійного борошнисторосяного гриба Erysiphе macleayae R. Y. Zheng & G. Q. Chen є новою для території парку та другою у Сумській області. Вдруге на території України виявлені Coprotus ochraceus (P. Crouan & H. Crouan) J. Moravec і Podospora myriospora (P. Crouan & H. Crouan) Niessl. Лише з трьох локалітетів були відомі в Україні Coprotus niveus (Fuckel) Kimbr. і Podospora australis (Speg.) Niessl, в чотирьох – Podospora communis (Speg.) Niessl, Podospora pleiospora (G.Winter) Niessl і Thecotheus pelletieri (P. Crouan & H. Crouan) Boud. Серед зареєстрованих видів сумчастих грибів переважна більшість є біотрофами (35 видів), гемібіотрофами (35 видів) та копрофільними сапротрофами (29 видів). Це представники семи екологічних груп: облігатних паразитів вищих рослин, копрофілів, ксилофілів, філофілів, гербофілів, карпофілів і гумусових сапротрофів. Решта еколого-трофічних груп аскоміцетів у регіональному ландшафтному парку залишаються майже недослідженими.

The article reports new data on the occurrence of five coprophilous species of the genera Coniochaeta and Sordaria in Ukraine. These fungi represent a large group of coprophilous Sordariomycetes. Unlike fimicolous discomycetes, this group of fungi is poorly studied in Ukraine. The dung samples were collected on Tendra Island in the Black Sea (Kherson Region), and in the north-east of the country (Sumy Region). All specimens were obtained by incubating of the dung samples in moist chambers. Three species, Coniochaeta leucoplaca, C. vagans, and Sordaria minima are newly reported in Ukraine; the latter is for the first time recorded in Eastern Europe. For other two species, Sordaria alcina and S. humana, these are the second records in the country. For all species, descriptions of the Ukrainian specimens on various types of dung are provided and compared to original descriptions. Based on the collected specimens, distinctive morphological characters of the species are described in detail. All species are illustrated by micrographs obtained using light and scanning electron microscopy. For each specimen, its locality, substrate, and collection date are indicated. In addition to morphological characters, ecological peculiarities and data on general distribution of these species are briefly discussed.
The article provides an update on the dung-inhabiting members of the Sporormiaceae in Ukraine. Overall, 26 species of Sporormia and the Preussia/Sporormiella species complex have been recorded in the country to date. Based on examination of specimens collected in 2007–2020, we report one species of Sporormia (S. fimetaria), two of Preussia s. str. (P. fleischhakii, P. funiculata) and 11 of Sporormiella (S. affinis, S. commutata, S. grandispora, S. heptamera, S. kansensis, S. leporina, S. longisporopsis, S. megalospora, S. muskokensis, S. octomera and S. pulchella). Of these, the genus Sporormia and four species of the other genera (P. fleischhakii, S. affinis, S. commutata and S. longisporopsis) are newly recorded in Ukraine. For all fourteen species, their morphological characters are described, illustrated and discussed; occurrence records, habitat and distribution data are also provided. This study extends the distribution ranges of these fungi eastwards within Europe and contributes to their substrate list.
Data on anatomical, morphological, ecological features, and distribution of 10 species of Sporormiella (Pleosporales, Dothideomycetes) of Ukraine are presented. Three species of Sporormiella (S. australis (Speg.) S.I. Ahmed & Cain, S. minima (Auersw.) S.I. Ahmed & Cain, S.vexans (Auersw.) S.I. Ahmed & Cain) were not previously described for the Steppe zone of Ukraine. The detailed description of all the species, synonyms, substrates, and localities in Ukraine and world distribution are also provided as well as the identification key.
