“…Reddy (ϭ E. cinerea), grows on the inflorescences of warm season grasses, Eragrostis and Sporobolus spp., and encircles the whole of the inflorescence. The ascostromata are brittle and perithecia are randomly and sparsely arranged in the ascostromata, as pointed out by White and Reddy (1998) and previous authors (e.g., Sharma and Tewari 1969). E. cinerea (ϭ P. cinerea) materials from Nepal used in this work morphologically fit the previous descriptions (Mhaskar and Rao 1976;White 1994).…”

“…Their ascal tips are round and somewhat thickened (Fig. 1E,F), but their capitation is not so prominent as E. typhina nor so flattened as E. cinerea, as depicted by Sharma and Tewari (1969) and White and Reddy (1998). Ascospores are hyaline, filiform, and multiseptated and easily fragmented to dumbbell shaped part-spores in the ascus (Fig.…”

The causal agents of witches' broom of bamboo plants in East Asia, Epichloë bambusae and E. sasae, were morphologically and phylogenetically examined. The phylogenetic studies were conducted using ITS 1, 2, and 5.8 S rDNA regions. Both Epichloë species produce Ephelis-type conidia in artificial medium and are phylogenetically situated in different clades from Epichloë and Parepichloë.Here, we propose a new genus Heteroepichloë for these two bambsicolous Epichloë species.
