Novel Hypocrealean Fungi from Rhizophoraceae, Neocosmospora mangrovei sp. nov. and Neocosmospora ceriopis sp. nov., and their Antifungal Activity against Anthracnose Pathogen Colletotrichum spp.
Abstract:Neocosmospora is a fungus genus that contains saprobes, endophytes, and pathogens in the family Nectriaceae. Prior to this study, 113 morphological species belonging to this genus have been described and published. In this study, we reported two new species of fungus, Neocosmospora mangrovei (MFLUCC 17–0253; MFLUCC 17–0257) and N. ceriopis (MFLUCC 17–0259) that were isolated from the mangrove habitats in the Southern part of Thailand. Phylogenetic analyses of the combined ITS, EF-1α, RPB2, and LSU regions show… Show more
