“…Conidia of the new Kirramyces sp. were subhyaline to pale brown, 0-3-septate and longer (54 µm on average, range 47-60 µm) than those of K. eucalypti (mean 43 µm, range 35-50 µm, which are also 0-3-septate) (Heather 1961;Walker et al 1992;Andjic et al 2007b). The conidia of the Kirramyces sp.…”

“…There have been many changes in the nomenclature of P. epicoccoides and P. eucalypti, which can lead to confusion in identification and reporting of outbreaks. Taxonomic changes and new combinations are cited in detail in Walker et al (1992), in , who resurrected the name Phaeophleospora for Kirramyces spp., and by Crous and Wingfield (1997), in which the teleomorph of K. epicoccoides (Phaeophleospora epicoccoides) is described as Mycosphaerella suttoniae …”

“…It has been reported in native Eucalyptus forests and plantations in Australia (Carnegie 2007a, b;Walker et al 1992) and other countries where these trees are grown as non-natives (Chipompha 1987;Chungu et al 2010;Crous et al 1988; Gardner and Hodges 1988;Padaganur and Hiremath 1973;Simpson et al 2005) from a variety of Eucalyptus species (Crous et al 1988;Sankaran et al 1995) in the subgenera Corymbia, Monocalyptus, Symphyomyrtus, and Indiogenes. Carnegie et al (1997) reported T. suttonii on three new hosts, namely, Eucalyptus argophloia, E. scias, and E. longirostrata.…”

DNA sequence incongruence and inconsistent morphology obscure species boundaries in the Teratosphaeria suttonii species complex

Teratosphaeria suttonii (= Kirramyces epicoccoides) is a leaf pathogen that can cause premature defoliation, reduced growth and vigosr and subsequent tree death of many Eucalyptus species.Although the fungus primarily infects mature leaves in the lower canopy, infections can spread to younger leaves during continued epidemics or when trees are stressed. Teratosphaeria suttonii has a wide distribution in Australia and has been introduced to many other parts of the world, most probably with germplasm used to establish plantations. The aim of this study was to establish the phylogenetic relationships between T. suttonii isolates from different countries and to consider whether cryptic species exist in a species complex. DNA from parts of the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS), β-tubulin and elongation factor-1α genes was sequenced and analyzed for isolates from throughout the range of T. suttonii in Australia, and from six countries (China, Indonesia, South Africa, Uruguay, USA and Vietnam) where the pathogen is introduced.Morphometrics of conidia produced both in vivo and in vitro were also considered. Analysis of the sequence data resulted in incongruent genealogies. Furthermore, groups of isolates in the genealogies could not be linked to area of origin. Likewise differences in conidial morphology could not be linked to any of the phylogenetic groups. There was no evidence of distinct species 2 boundaries and isolates from Australia were closely related to those from other parts of the world.The results of this study support the treatment of T. suttonii as a morphologically and genetically diverse species in its natural range in Australia. The diversity is reflected in introduced populations.
