| botryosphaeriaceae from tuart (eucalyptus gomphocephala) woodland, including descriptions of four new species. | eucalyptus gomphocephala (tuart) is a tree native to the southwest coast of western australia, where, in some areas, there is a significant decline in the health of tuart. botryosphaeriaceous taxa have been isolated as endophytes and canker pathogens from numerous hosts in many parts of the world and have been implicated in the decline of e. gomphocephala. in the present study, endophytic fungi were isolated from a wide variety of native woody plant species (acacia cochlearis, a. rostellifera, a ... | 2009 | 19070663 |
| phytophthora multivora sp. nov., a new species recovered from declining eucalyptus, banksia, agonis and other plant species in western australia. | a new phytophthora species, isolated from rhizosphere soil of declining or dead trees of eucalyptus gomphocephala, e. marginata, agonis flexuosa, and another 13 plant species, and from fine roots of e. marginata and collar lesions of banksia attenuata in western australia, is described as phytophthora multivora sp. nov. it is homothallic and produces semipapillate sporangia, smooth-walled oogonia containing thick-walled oospores, and paragynous antheridia. although morphologically similar to p. ... | 2009 | 20198133 |
