Abstract

A large number of Fusarium isolates closely related to F. subglutinans were collected from maize in Belgium. We used a robust polyphasic approach to describe a new biological species, Fusarium temperatum sp. nov., within the Gibberella fujikuroi species complex. By using AFLP fingerprint profile, differences in the translation elongation factor 1-alpha and beta-tubulin DNA sequence, and interspecies mating compatibility analyses, F. temperatum can be distinguished from F. subglutinans and from the other Fusarium species within the Gibberella fujikuroi species complex. Intraspecies mating compatibility suggests that sexual reproduction may be common for field isolates of F. temperatum and reliable female fertile mating population tester strains were proposed for this heterothallic species.
