Abstract

The Botryosphaeriaceae is a cosmopolitan family species of which are common opportunistic pathogens majority infecting wood plants. They cause fruit rot, die back, trunk, hot canker and similar diseases killing trees of natural forests and plantations. In this study, two strains of Botryosphaeriaceae were isolated from soil attached to a macrofungal stipe collected from Anuppur (Amarkantak), Madhya Pradesh, India. These were characterized and identified both by morphological and DNA sequence data of multi locus sequence analysis (MLSA) including 5 regions viz., small subunit, internal transcribed spacer, large subunit, beta-tubulin, translation elongation factor regions. Based on the present study, a new anamorphic genus Allanobotryosphaeria is proposed, characterized by fast growing dark green- black colony, long multilocular-pipillate black conidiomata with separate ostiole and small ≥2?m cylindrical, hyaline conidia. Its teleomorph was not observed. It is morphologically distinct from other anamorphic genera of Botryosphaeriaceae. According to analysis of sequence data, Allanobotryosphaeria indica is phylogenetically distinct from other genera of Botryosphaeriaceae and hence proposed as a new genus et species.
