Abstract
Acremonium is a cosmopolitan and diverse genus of filamentous fungi, commonly isolated from soil and plant material, with several species recognized as opportunistic pathogens in both plants and humans. In this study, a novel species, Acremonium quercivorum sp. nov., is described from declining oak (Quercus spp.) trees in Algeria. This species is characterized by thin-walled hyphae, conidia oblong-ellipsoidal, and rounded at the apex, and subulate phialides with a thin neck at the apex. The multi-locus phylogenetic analyses combining ITS, LSU, RPB2, and TEF1 sequence data provide robust evidence supporting its distinction from A. egyptiacum and other closely related taxa. Comprehensive morphological descriptions, micrographs, and phylogenetic analyses of the new taxon associated with oak dieback are presented.
期刊介绍：
Mycobiology is an international journal devoted to the publication of fundamental and applied investigations on all aspects of mycology and their traditional allies. It is published quarterly and is the official publication of the Korean Society of Mycology. Mycobiology publishes reports of basic research on fungi and fungus-like organisms, including yeasts, filamentous fungi, lichen fungi, oomycetes, moulds, and mushroom. Topics also include molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, metabolism, developmental biology, environmental mycology, evolution, ecology, taxonomy and systematics, genetics/genomics, fungal pathogen and disease control, physiology, and industrial biotechnology using fungi.
