Abstract

The ascomycete family Bionectriaceae (Hypocreales) contains cosmopolitan species distributed throughout a broad range of environments, mainly occurring in terrestrial and freshwater ecosystems, with a less frequent occurrence in marine habitats. Members of the family are commonly used in industrial, pharmaceutical, and commercial applications. Applications utilise biodegraders and biocontrol agents, while certain taxa serve as a rich source of bioactive secondary metabolites. In recent years, several studies have proposed new taxonomic concepts within Bionectriaceae based on multi-gene phylogenetic inference. However, the status of several genera remains controversial or unclear, and many need to be re-collected and subjected to molecular analysis. The present study aims to improve our understanding of Bionectriaceae by re-examining CBS culture collection strains preliminarily identified as taxa within this family. Morphological and molecular phylogenetic analyses are based on alignments of the nuclear ribosomal subunits consisting of the internal transcribed spacer regions and intervening 5.8S nrDNA (ITS), as well as partial sequences for the 28S large subunit (LSU) nrDNA. Additional regions within protein-encoding genes were used, including the DNA-directed RNA polymerase II second largest subunit (RPB2), and translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF1) regions. The sequences generated were used to reconstruct a phylogenetic backbone of the family Bionectriaceae, and to delineate lineages and generic boundaries within it. Based on these results, seven new genera, 35 new species, and nine new combinations are proposed. A robustly supported phylogenetic framework is provided for Bionectriaceae, resolving 352 species and 50 well-supported genera. This study provides a solid foundation for more in-depth future studies on taxa in the family.

bioonectriaceae：一种鲜为人知的具有重大商业潜力的下厨真菌。

子囊菌科Bionectriaceae （Hypocreales）包含世界性的物种，分布在广泛的环境中，主要发生在陆地和淡水生态系统中，较少发生在海洋栖息地。该家族的成员通常用于工业，制药和商业应用。应用利用生物降解剂和生物防治剂，而某些分类群作为生物活性次生代谢物的丰富来源。近年来，一些研究在多基因系统发育推断的基础上提出了生物电科新的分类概念。然而，一些属的地位仍然存在争议或不清楚，许多需要重新收集和进行分子分析。本研究旨在通过对初步鉴定为该科分类群的CBS培养收集菌株的重新研究，提高我们对Bionectriaceae的认识。形态学和分子系统发育分析基于核糖体亚基的比对，包括内部转录间隔区和介入的5.8S nrDNA (ITS)，以及28S大亚基（LSU） nrDNA的部分序列。蛋白质编码基因内的其他区域被使用，包括dna定向RNA聚合酶II第二大亚基（RPB2）和翻译延伸因子1- α (TEF1)区域。生成的序列用于重建Bionectriaceae家族的系统发育骨干，并划定其谱系和属界。在此基础上，提出了7个新属、35个新种和9个新组合。提供了一个强有力支持的系统发育框架，包括352个种和50个支持良好的属。本研究为今后对该科分类群进行更深入的研究奠定了坚实的基础。新分类：新属：锁骨菌属、锁骨菌属、玻璃菌属、共生菌属、生菌属、生菌属、霉菌属、荨麻菌属新物种:副多棘棘球绦虫、前棘球绦虫、新棘球绦虫、热带棘球绦虫、细棘球绦虫、墨西哥棘球绦虫、增棘球绦虫、单棘球绦虫、三角棘球绦虫、全棘球绦虫、栎树棘球绦虫、柏树棘球绦虫等；大斑地鼩赵林& cros，橄榄胶质瘤鱼赵林& cros， armenibiphaera赵林& cros，棉棉水鼩赵林& cros， martinichydrophaera赵林& cros， solani hydrophaera赵林& cros，软骨激光鳗赵林& cros，斑点激光鳗赵林& cros，斑点激光鳗赵林& cros，斑点电鳗赵林& cros，斑点电鳗赵林& cros，絮状电鳗赵林& cros，茶树卵虫、鸡公山副青果卵虫、间隔山副青果卵虫、蜘蛛副青果卵虫、委内瑞拉副青果卵虫、绝育绒虫、衣孢子原青果卵虫、高利原青果卵虫、刺毛虫、青果卵虫、水蛭卵虫、水蛭卵虫。林昭和P.W.克劳斯。新组合：Clavatomyces korfii （Lechat & J.

期刊介绍： The international journal Studies in Mycology focuses on advancing the understanding of filamentous fungi, yeasts, and various aspects of mycology. It publishes comprehensive systematic monographs as well as topical issues covering a wide range of subjects including biotechnology, ecology, molecular biology, pathology, and systematics. This Open-Access journal offers unrestricted access to its content. Each issue of Studies in Mycology consists of around 5 to 6 papers, either in the form of monographs or special focused topics. Unlike traditional length restrictions, the journal encourages submissions of manuscripts with a minimum of 50 A4 pages in print. This ensures a thorough exploration and presentation of the research findings, maximizing the depth of the published work.
