Abstract

Partial rDNA sequences were obtained from 26 isolates representing species of Cercospora, Passalora, Paracercospora, Pseudocercospora, Ramulispora, Pseudocercosporella, and Mycocentrospora. The combined internal transcribed spacers (ITS) including the 5.8S rRNA gene and 5' end of the 25S gene (primer pairs F63/R635) on rDNA were amplified using PCR and sequenced directly. The ITS regions including the 5.8S varied in length from 502 to 595 bp. The F63/R635 region varied from 509-519 bp among isolates sequenced. Reconstructed phylogenies inferred from both regions had highly similar topologies for the taxa examined. Phylogenetic analysis of the sequences resulted in four well-supported clades corresponding to Cercospora, Paracercospora/Pseudocercospora, Passalora and Ramulispora, with bootstrap values greater than 92% for each clade. Based on the results of the analysis, a new combination for Pseudocersporella aestiva is proposed in Ramulispora, and Paracercospora is reduced to synonymy with Pseudocercospora.
