Abstract

Two new species of Cadophora are described based on multi-gene phylogenetic analyses, phenotypic and ecological characters. The species delimitation was based on concordance of multiple gene genealogies. The cultures of the Cadophora species were isolated from the roots of long-beak sedge and white spruce from a subalpine forest in Western Canada; however, they likely have a wide distribution because their internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences have high similarity with a number of GenBank sequences from various ecological studies. The taxonomy of Cadophora in Leotiomycetes is discussed based on the phylogeny generated in this study. Results from this work will facilitate ecological and evolutionary studies on root-associated fungi.
