A colourless hyphomycetous fungus was found on living leaves of Peristrophe bicalyculata in India. Molecular phylogenetic
analyses of several loci (LSU-RPB2-ITS) indicated a relationship with cercosporoid fungi (Mycosphaerellaceae). Since
there is no other known lineage with similar morphology or DNA sequences, the new genus Neocercosporella is pro...
Teratoramularia rumicis, a new hyaline anamorphic foliicolous hyphomycetous fungus was discovered on living leaves of medicinally important plant Rumex crispus (Polygonaceae) is described and illustrated. It is an obligate foliar pathogen that causes silvery white foliar disease. It is the first report of Teratoramularia from India. This species is...
Podosphaera thermopsidicola, a new sexual morph form of powdery mildew was discovered on living leaves of Thermopsis barbata Benth. (Fabaceae). It is described, illustrated and compared with other Podosphaera species reported on Fabaceae. The phylogeny of this species has been inferred from partial nuclear ribosomal 28S large subunit (LSU) and inte...
Ramularia titarpaniensis, a new hyaline anamorphic foliicolous hyphomycetous fungus, discovered on living leaves of Wendlandia sp. (Rubiaceae) is described and illustrated. This species is compared with closely related species of cercosporoid hyphomycetous forms reported on the same family.
A new asexual fungus Corynespora titarpaniensis, discovered on Lepidagathis sp. (Acanthaceae) from Madhya Pradesh, India, is described, illustrated, and compared with closely similar species.
Phyllactinia braunii sp. nov., discovered on living leaves of Cordia myxa (Boraginaceae) in a dry deciduous forest of Central India, is described and illustrated. It is compared with P. thirumalachari and its anamorph-typified synonym Ovulariopsis cordiae, a morphologically similar species known from India and Taiwan on Cordia dichotoma.
The phylogeny of the Mycosphaerella has been explored by means of partial sequences of the 28S (LSU) rRNA gene and the ITS region (ITS1, 5.8S rDNA and ITS2). Based on the LSU sequence data, Mycosphaerella is segregated into various distinct clusters proved the polyphyletic nature. The Genus Cercospora is most complex genera (Cercospora Complex) wit...
