Abstract

To presume the parasitic characteristics of ergot fungi (Claviceps spp.) on crop, molecular phylogenetic analysis approach was applied to refer to previous parasitic tests. Ergot fungi found on Agrostis gigantea, Alopecurus aequalis var. amurensis and Polypogon fugax in Ishikawa prefecture, were morphologically identified as C. purpurea var. alopecuri. Phylogenetic analysis of Claviceps spp. using ITS1-5.8S rDNA-ITS2 region revealed that the C. purpurea was divided into at least two groups. These phylogenetic groups were considered to be populations which have parasitic preference. Consequently, the phylogenetic group including C. purpurea var. alopecuri was regarded as a population that can parasitize to barley and wheat.
