We document the first report of Dissoconium proteae from China. This fungus was found on the cuticle of apple fruit collected from orchards in Shaanxi Province. Its morphology is compared with other Dissoconium species and a phylogenetic analysis based on ITS sequence
is presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
