Abstract

Choke diseases were surveyed in two closely related grass species, Agropyron ciliare var. minus (Aokamojigusa) and Agropyron tsukushiense var. transiens (Kamojigusa) in Shiga Prefecture, Japan, whereas the ascospore was not observed in either case. Conidiostromata on A. ciliare var. minus enclosed and sterilized young inflorescens, such as the typical choke symptom by Epichlo? typhina. On the other hand, conidiostromata on A. tsukusiense var. transiens thinly covered mature spike with white epiphyllous hyphae, such as a conidiostroma of Ephelis spp. The fungal isolates produced typical Neotyphodium-type conidia. Molecular phylogenetic analyses using the beta-tubulin gene (tubB) indicated that the two Agropyron species are infected with the species grouping into a novel single clade among Epichlo? species and they are closely related to a haploid of hybrid Neotyphodium species. The host plant features may be a cause for the different type of conidiostromata between in A. ciliare var. minus and in A. tsukushiense var. transiens.
