Species Diversity and Distribution Characteristics of Calonectria in Five Soil Layers in a Eucalyptus Plantation

“…Sequences of all of the published species in the relevant species complexes were used for sequence comparisons and phylogenetic analyses. The datasets of Liu and co-authors [5] were used as templates for analyses, while sequences of other recently described Calonectria species [13,[32][33][34][35] were also used for sequence comparisons.…”

“…The 85 Calonectria isolates with four gene regions sequenced were used for phylogenetic analyses (Table 3). Based on the recently published results in Liu and co-authors [5] and Crous and co-authors [34], sequences of tef1, tub2, cmdA, and his3 of published species in the C. kyotensis species complex and C. brassicae species complex, respectively, were used for sequence comparisons and phylogenetic analyses (Table 4).…”

“…Previous research results indicated a high level of species diversity of Calonectria in southern China, especially in soils [9,11,13,14,23]. Currently, a total of 125 Calonectria species have been described using DNA sequence-based phylogenetic analyses and morphological comparisons [5,13,[29][30][31][32][33][34][35]. A total of 25 species of Calonectria have been identified and described in China based on DNA sequence data [5,9,11,13,14,36].…”

“…Codes B1 to B120 of the 120 accepted Calonectria species resulting from Liu and co-authors[5], "B124" indicated C. singaporensis described in Crous and co-authors[34] 2. T: ex-type isolates of the species 3.…”
