“…Notes— Neopestalotiopsis brasiliensis was described from rotted fruits of Psidium guajava in Brazil [ 51 ]. In present study, strains from diseased chestnut leaves formed a supported clade with the ex-type strain COAD 2166 ( Figure 13 ), and shared similar morphology.…”

Two Castanea plant species, C. henryi and C. mollissima, are cultivated in China to produce chestnut crops. Leaf spot diseases commonly occur in Castanea plantations, however, little is known about the fungal species associated with chestnut leaf spots. In this study, leaf samples of C. henryi and C. mollissima were collected from Beijing, Guizhou, Hunan, Sichuan and Yunnan Provinces, and leaf-inhabiting fungi were identified based on morphology and phylogeny. As a result, twenty-six fungal species were confirmed, including one new family, one new genus, and five new species. The new taxa are Pyrisporaceae fam. nov., Pyrispora gen. nov., Aureobasidium castaneae sp. nov., Discosia castaneae sp. nov., Monochaetia castaneae sp. nov., Neopestalotiopsis sichuanensis sp. nov. and Pyrispora castaneae sp. nov.

“… Diaporthe pungensis forms a distinct clade with high support ( ML / BI = 100/1), and differed with the closely related species ( D. inconspicua and D. poincianellae ) on ITS , TUB , CAL and HIS loci (94% in ITS , 92% in TUB , 70% in TEF , 92% in CAL and 92% in HIS ; and 95% in ITS , 94% in TUB , 80% in TEF , 94% in CAL and 89% in HIS , respectively). Moreover, Diaporthe pungensis differs from D. inconspicua , in having guttulate of alpha conidia, and having larger alpha conidia (6.0–8.5 × 2.0–3.3 vs. 5.5–6.5 × 1.5–2 μm) ( Bezerra et al 2018 ). Furthermore, Diaporthe pungensis can produce two types of conidia (α-conidia and β-conidia), but D. poincianellae only produce a α-conidia( Crous et al 2018b ).…”

Diaporthe species have often been reported as plant pathogens, endophytes and saprophytes, commonly isolated from a wide range of infected plant hosts. In the present study, twenty strains obtained from leaf spots of twelve host plants in Yunnan Province of China were isolated. Based on a combination of morphology, culture characteristics and multilocus sequence analysis of the rDNA internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), translation elongation factor 1-α (TEF), β-tubulin (TUB), calmodulin (CAL), and histone (HIS) genes, these strains were identified as eight new species: Diaporthe camelliae-sinensis, D. grandiflori, D. heliconiae, D. heterostemmatis, D. litchii, D. lutescens, D. melastomatis, D. pungensis and two previously described species, D. subclavata and D. tectonendophytica. This study showed high species diversity of Diaporthe in tropical rain forests and its hosts in south-western China.

“…Endophytes belonging to Diaporthe, Phyllosticta, and Colletotrichum are frequently isolated (Murali et al 2007;Singh et al 2017;Bezerra et al 2018). Species of these genera are commonly reported as endophytic fungi from medicinal crops; endemic, natural, and invasive plants; and economically important plants.…”

We studied the fungal endophyte community of the leaves of Myracrodruon urundeuva in Brazil along with their potential to produce L-asparaginase. In total, 187 endophytes were isolated. The colonization rate of leaf fragments from caatinga (10.41 %) was lower than those from brejo de altitude (39.58 %). Sequences of ITS rDNA from all endophytes revealed relationships with Ascomycota (Botryosphaeriales, Chaetothyriales, Diaporthales, Eurotiales, Glomerellales, Hypocreales, and Pleosporales) and Basidiomycota (Polyporales). The most frequent endophytes were members of the genus Diaporthe. Talaromyces was an indicator genus for caatinga while Phyllosticta, Diaporthe, and Colletotrichum were for brejo de altitude. The composition of endophytic fungi in caatinga and brejo de altitude differed significantly, its richness and diversity (H' = 3.41) being significantly higher in brejo de altitude. Diaporthe sp. URM 7793 was the best producer of L-asparaginase (2.41 U/g), followed by Diaporthe sp. URM 7779 (2.00 U/g), Talaromyces sp. URM 7785 (1.91 U/g), and Diaporthe sp. URM 7792 (1.47 U/g). The composition of endophytic fungi assemblages is strongly influenced by the type of ecosystem. In its natural habitat, M. urundeuva harbors an important diversity of endophytes, which could be used to produce L-asparaginase.
