Abstract

Only botryosphaeriaceous taxa have been reported in association with peach trees in Chinese peach orchards. This study aims to identify and characterise species of Diaporthe associated with symptomatic peach trees showing exudates in Jinshui Experimental Orchard of Hubei Academy of Agriculture Sciences in Hubei, China with descriptions of three new species: D. momicola sp. nov., D. pescicola sp. nov. and D. taoicola sp. nov. Fungal identification was accomplished using a combination of morphological and pathogenic characteristics together with phylogenetic analyses based on internal transcribed spacer (ITS), partial translation elongation factor 1-α sequence (EF1-α), β-tubulin (BT) and calmodulin (CAL). Diaporthe eres was the most commonly isolated (70% of all isolates). All identified species were able to cause necrotic lesions at different levels of severity when inoculated in detached peach shoots.
