Fabaceous plant species host a large number of powdery mildew species belonging to the genus <i>Erysiphe</i>. The affiliation of these species to <i>Erysiphe</i> is readily possible, but they represent a morphologically and taxonomically complicated complex of closely related, morphologically similar species with overlapping traits. Precise morphological examinations along with phylogenetic analyses, including type collections and other representative samples, are needed to solve the complexity of <i>Erysiphe</i> spp. on legumes. In this study, we sequenced a number of collections of powdery mildews on <i>Pisum</i>, <i>Lathyrus</i>, <i>Vicia</i> and <i>Ononis</i> spp., with a special focus on specimens from Iran, to clarify species delimitations within the <i>Erysiphe pisi</i> complex and other <i>Erysiphe</i> species complexes on legumes. Sequences retrieved from powdery mildew on <i>Pisum</i> and <i>Ononis</i> fall into separate, well supported clades. Hence, the original status of <i>E. cruchetiana</i> as a species of its own on <i>Ononis</i> spp. is reinstated instead of <i>E. pisi</i> var<i>. cruchetiana</i>. Ten species, viz., <i>E. astragali</i>,<i> E. bremeri</i>,<i> E. caulicola</i>, <i>E. cruchetiana</i>, <i>E. iranica</i>,<i> E. medicaginis</i>, <i>E. pisi</i>,<i> E. rayssiae</i>, <i>E. sesbaniae</i> and <i>E. trifoliorum</i> were confirmed for Iran, redescribed and illustrated on the basis of Iranian collections. <i>Erysiphe astragali</i>,<i> E. bremeri</i>, <i>E. coluteae</i> and<i> E. crispula</i> form a genetically little differentiated clade in ITS/LSU analyses, which is referred to as <i>E. astragali</i> clade (complex), comparable to the <i>E. trifoliorum</i> clade (complex). Based on our results, <i>E. coluteae</i> and <i>E. crispula</i> are reduced to synonymy with <i>E. astragali</i> and <i>E. sophorae</i> is considered a synonym of <i>E. bremeri</i>. Sequences of the North American <i>E. intermedia</i> on <i>Lupinus</i> species form a small clade nested within the big <i>E. astragali</i> clade.

This study aimed to find out the effectiveness of <i>Trichoderma viride</i> priming on soybean root growth promotion, and enhancement of soil-N and K uptakes under graded fertilization. Soybean seeds were treated with freshly prepared <i>T. viride</i> BHU-2953 talc. Root lignification, indole acetic acid (IAA) production, and activity of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate deaminase (ACCD) were determined to observe root growth-promoting activities. A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate root volume, and soil exploration by roots, i.e., the potential volume of influence (PVI), uptakes of N and K, and different physiological attributes at different growth periods of soybean. Results revealed that biopriming enhanced the root lignification, IAA, and ACCD, assisting more soil volume exploration (PVI) for better N and K acquisitions. Biopriming increased the plant biomasses which ultimately, led to more seed yield than untreated soybeans, receiving even higher N-K doses. The PVI correlated well with root volume (<i>r</i>² = 0.95; <i>P</i> &lt; 0.01), explaining good soil-nutrient foraging by bioprimed soybeans.

Substantial doubt has recently been raised concerning the unequivocal suitability of using this sequence information for inferring inter- and intraspecific relationships, as especially the ITS locus was repeatedly shown to harbor high intragenomic plasticity. The evolutionary mechanisms leading to this phenomenon are poorly understood, but this is about to change, owing to the availability of third generation sequencing techniques. The current study attempts a comprehensive analysis of rDNA cistrons in the genomes of over 40 selected species of <i>Hypoxylaceae</i> (<i>Xylariales</i>), using a combination of 2nd generation (Illumina) and 3rd generation sequencing technologies (Oxford Nanopore), along with extensive usage of bioinformatic tools to obtain high-quality genomes. Our findings revealed high intragenomic polymorphisms in distinct <i>Hypoxylaceae</i> species, indicating the presence of deep rDNA paralogs. Phylogenetic inference of the ITS rDNA showed low support for the primary clades within <i>Hypoxylaceae</i>, while inference using the protein encoding gene <i>RPB2</i> showed better support. We also found that proteinogenic genes are not prone to intraspecific and intragenomic polymorphisms as much as the rDNA loci. Our study highlights the limitations of solely relying on the rDNA cistron as a barcode for fungi. We propose <i>TUB2</i> as a new primary barcoding marker for <i>Hypoxylaceae</i> and other <i>Xylariales</i>. Moreover, we demonstrate the feasibility to retrieve some DNA loci that had hitherto not been used for classical phylogenetic studies (such as <i>TEF1</i>) in <i>Xylariales</i> directly from genomes without the necessity to work with primers.</p>","PeriodicalId":19111,"journal":{"name":"Mycological Progress","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139070519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
