“…This complex is one of the best studied and contains more than 60 phylogenetically distinct species recognized and distributed in different ecologies (Yilmaz et al 2021). The characteristics of the F. verticillioides colonies coincided with those described by Guo et al (2021); while, the features of microconidia and macroconidia were similar to those reported by Yilmaz et al (2021). Several studies have recorded F. verticillioides causing wilt symptoms in yams, root rot in tobacco and wilt in guava (Dongzhen et al 2020;Gai et al 2021;Gangaraj et al 2021); however, this is the rst report of F. verticillioides as the causal agent of chickpea wilt in Mexico and worldwide.…”

Wilt disease complex, is the most important disease of chickpeas (Cicer arietinum L.) in the production areas from Mexico. Disease symptoms include root rot, yellowing, wilting, poor growth, discoloration of vascular tissues, and death of plants. This study aimed to identify the fusarioid species associated with chickpea wilt in northwest Mexico by the combination of phylogenetic analyses and morphological characterization, as well as to determine their pathogenicity and virulence on chickpea seedlings. A total of 80 isolates of fusarioid fungi were obtained from symptomatic plants of 16 chickpea fields distributed in Sinaloa and Sonora, Mexico. Subsequently, a subset of 41 isolates representing the range of geographic origin was selected for further morphological characterization, phylogeny, and pathogenicity tests. Phylogenetic analyses of partial fragments of the translation elongation factor 1-alpha (tef1-α) and RNA polymerase second largest subunit (rpb2) genes were used to determine the identity of 26 Fusarium isolates and 15 Neocosmospora isolates to species level. Pathogenicity tests were performed on chickpea seedlings (cv. Blanco Sinaloa) under greenhouse conditions. Phylogenetic analyses of 41 fungal isolates of this study allowed the identification of Fusarium languescens (51.2%), Neocosmospora falciformis (36.6%), F. nirenbergiae (7.3%), and F. verticillioides (4.9%). All fungal isolates were found to be pathogenic on chickpea seedlings and a significant difference in virulence was observed. To our knowledge, F. languescens and F. nirenbergiae, belonging to the Fusarium oxysporum species complex, as well as F. verticillioides belonging to the Fusarium fujikuroi species complex are recorded for the first time as causal agents of chickpea wilt in Mexico and worldwide.

“…Mango, an important and economically useful across the world, is largely cultivated in subtropical to tropical regions, while mango-associated fungi, especially pathogens, are always discovered [103][104][105][106][107]. Although more than 2000 fungal records on mango have been documented, only a few saprobic fungi species associated with mango have been introduced; among the fungi already reported from mango, less fungal species have been reported from the order Pleosporales [12].…”

Pleosporales is the largest fungal order with a worldwide distribution in terrestrial and aquatic environments. During investigations of saprobic fungi associated with mango (Mangifera indica)) in Baoshan and Honghe, Yunnan, China, fungal taxa belonging to pleosporales were collected. Morphological examinations and phylogenetic analyses of ITS, LSU, SSU, rpb2 and tef1-α loci were used to identify the fungal taxa. A new genus, Mangifericomes; four new species, namely Mangifericomes hongheensis, Neomassaria hongheensis, Paramonodictys hongheensis, and Paramonodictys yunnanensis; and six new host and country records, namely Byssosphaeria siamensis, Crassiparies quadrisporus, Paradictyoarthrinium aquatica, Phaeoseptum mali, Torula fici, and Vaginatispora amygdali, are introduced. Photoplates, full descriptions, and phylogenetic trees to show the placement of new and known taxa are provided.

“…can cause many diseases with a wide range of hosts, usually causing wilts, blights, rots, and cankers (Ma et al, 2013). Fusarium can also be the causal agent of leaf spot disease in several plants including Dracaena, mango, peanut and Bletilla striata [ 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ].…”

Sweet cherry is an important fruit crop in China with a high economic value. From 2019 to 2020, a leaf spot disease was reported, with purplish-brown circular lesions in three cultivating regions in China. Twenty-four Fusarium isolates were obtained from diseased samples and were identified based on morphological characteristics and multi-locus phylogenetic analyses. Seven species, including F. luffae (7 isolates), F. lateritium (6 isolates), F. compactum (5 isolates), F. nygamai (2 isolates), F. citri (2 isolates), F. ipomoeae (1 isolate) and F. curvatum (1 isolate) were identified. The pathogenicity test showed that analyzed strains of all species could produce lesions on detached cherry leaves. Therefore, Fusarium was proved to be a pathogen of cherry leaf spots in China. This is the first report of F. luffae, F. compactum, F. nygamai, F. citri, F. ipomoeae and F. curvatum on sweet cherry in China.
