    Abstract: To meet the growing demand for wood and pulp products, Eucalyptus plantations have expanded rapidly during the past two decades, becoming an integral part of the southern China landscape. Leaf blight caused by various Calonectria spp., is a serious threat to these plantations. In order to explore the diversity and distribution of Calonectria spp. in Fujian Province soils, samples were collected in Eucalyptus plantations and adjacent plantings of Cunninghamia lanceolata, Phyllostachys heterocycle and Pinus massoniana as well as in natural forests. Three hundred and fifty-three Calonectria isolates were recovered from soil samples and they were identified based on a comparison of multilocus DNA sequence data for the act (actin), cmdA (calmodulin), his3 (histone H3), rpb2 (the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase), tef1 (translation elongation factor 1-alpha) and tub2 (β-tubulin) gene regions, as well as morphological characteristics. Six known taxa including Calonectria aconidialis, Ca. hongkongensis, Ca. ilicicola, Ca. kyotensis, Ca. pacifica, Ca. pseudoreteaudii and one novel species described here as Ca. minensis sp. nov. were identified. Of these, Ca. aconidialis and Ca. kyotensis were the most prevalent species, and found in eight and seven sites, and four and five forest types, respectively. Calonectria spp. were most abundant in soils from Eucalyptus stands, followed by P. heterocycle and natural forests. Relatively few species were found in the soils associated with Cunninghamia lanceolata and Pinus massoniana. The abundance of known Calonectria spp. suggests that these fungi have been relatively well sampled in Fujian. The results are also consistent with the fact that most Calonectria diseases are found on Angiosperm as opposed to Gymnosperm plants.

    Abstract: Draft genome sequences of five Calonectria species [including Calonectria aciculata , C. crousiana , C. fujianensis , C. honghensis and C. pseudoturangicola ], Celoporthe dispersa , Sporothrix phasma and Alectoria sarmentosa are presented. Species of Calonectria are the causal agents of Eucalyptus leaf blight disease, threatening the growth and sustainability of Eucalyptus plantations in China. Celoporthe dispersa is the causal agent of stem canker in native Syzygium cordatum and exotic Tibouchina granulosa in South Africa. Sporothrix phasma was first discovered in the infructescences of Protea laurifolia and Protea neriifolia in South Africa. Alectoria sarmentosa is fruticose lichen belongs to the alectorioid clade of the family Parmeliaceae. The availability of these genome sequences will facilitate future studies on the systematics, population genetics, and genomics of these fungi.

    Abstract: Species in the Ceratocystis manginecans complex are important fungal pathogens of plantation trees globally. The most important hosts include species of Eucalyptus, Acacia, Mangifera, and Punica. Despite their relevance and widespread occurrence, little is known regarding their population genetics and how this might relate to their host associations or geographic regions in which they occur. A global collection of 491 isolates representing the C. manginecans complex, from four different plant hosts and nine countries, were genotyped using microsatellite markers. Population genetic analyses using numerous tools were conducted to interrogate how their genetic diversity and structure might be affected by host or areas of occurrence. Results of genetic diversity studies showed that when grouping isolates into populations based on their host associations, the population on Eucalyptus was most diverse, and it also has a broad global distribution. When considering countries of origin as a basis for defining populations, the gene and genotypic diversity were highest in populations from China, Indonesia, and Brazil. In contrast, populations from Oman and Pakistan collected from Mangifera had the lowest genetic diversity and were clonal. Molecular variance, population differentiation, and network and structure analyses showed that the genetic structure of isolates in the C. manginecans complex is influenced by both host association as well as geographical isolation. Furthermore, the results reflected the movement of genotypes between plant hosts and geographic regions that have implications regarding the broad global distribution of this pathogen.

    Abstract: Calonectria leaf blight (CLB) is one of the most important diseases of Eucalyptus trees grown in plantations. This disease poses a serious threat to the sustainability of Eucalyptus plantations in southern China. To better understand the causal agents of CLB, we collected samples of diseased leaves and soil from Eucalyptus plantations from nine regions in Guangdong Province where the disease has become a serious problem. A total of 606 Calonectria isolates were purified from the samples, with 399 and 207 originating from diseased leaves and soils, respectively. Phylogenetic analyses utilizing six gene regions resolved 303 isolates in the C. kyotensis species complex and an equal number of isolates in the C. reteaudii species complex. These two complexes were represented by ten known Calonectria species, including C. aconidialis (12.0%), C. curvispora (0.3%), C. hongkongensis (24.8%), C. ilicicola (0.9%), and C. kyotensis (12.0%) in the C. kyotensis species complex, and C. crousiana (1.0%), C. Guangdongensis (0.3%), C. pseudoreteaudii (40.7%), C. queenslandica (7.3%), and C. reteaudii (0.7%) in the C. reteaudii species complex . Pathogenicity tests showed that all species were capable of causing disease on two tested Eucalyptus genotypes, albeit at varying degrees of aggressiveness. Most isolates (98.3%) in the C. reteaudii species complex were from the diseased leaves, indicating that species in this complex are the main causal agents of CLB outbreak. In addition, a significant number of the C. kyotensis species complex isolates (66.7%) from the soil samples could also cause the disease on Eucalyptus leaves.
