abstract = {A novel species of Botrytis from peony in Alaska, USA and grape in Trento District, Italy was identified based on differences in morphology, pathogenicity, and sequence data. The grape and peony isolates share sequence homology in the glyceraldehyde-3-phosate dehydrogenase (G3PDH), heat-shock protein 60 (HSP60), DNA-dependent RNA polymerase subunit II (RPB2), and necrosis and ethylene-inducing proteins 1 and 2 (NEP1 and NEP2) genes that place them in a distinct group closely related to B. aclada, a globally distributed pathogen of onion. Genetic results were corroborated with morphological and pathogenicity trials that included two isolates of B. cinerea and two isolates B. paeoniae from peony in Alaska, and one isolate of B. aclada. We observed differences in colony and conidium conidia morphology and ability to cause lesions on different host tissues that suggest that the grape and peony isolates represent a distinct species. Most notably, the grape and peony isolates did not colonize onion bulbs, whereas B. aclada readily produced lesions and prolific sporulation on onion tissue. This new species Botrytis euroamericana is described herein.}
