Abstract

Phylogenetic relationships between four Fusarium species were studied using parts of the nuclear EF-1a-gene as a phylogenetic marker. Sequences from12 isolates of F. poae, 10 isolates of F. sporotrichioides and12 isolates of F. langsetiae yielded 4, 5 and 5 genotypes respectively. In addition we included one isolate of F. kyushuense. The aligned sequences were subjected to neighbor-joining, maximum parsimony and maximum likelihood analyses. The results from the different analyses were highly concordant due to a harmonic dataset. A likelihood test on all the topologies revealed that none of them could be rejected. All the analyses support the suggestion of F. langsethiae as a separate taxon in the Fusarium section Sporotrichiella. They also reveal that F. langsethiae is more related to F. sporotrichioides than to F. poae, and that F. kyushuense is more related to F. poae than to F. sporotrichioides although morphological characters could lead you to believe the opposite.
