<front><div type="abstract" xml:lang="en"><p>Fungal taxonomists routinely encounter problems when dealing with asexual
fungal species due to poly- and paraphyletic generic phylogenies, and unclear
species boundaries. These problems are aptly illustrated in the genus
<italic>Phoma</italic>
. This phytopathologically significant fungal genus is currently
subdivided into nine sections which are mainly based on a single or just a few
morphological characters. However, this subdivision is ambiguous as several of
the section-specific characters can occur within a single species. In
addition, many teleomorph genera have been linked to <italic>Phoma</italic>
, three of
which are recognised here. In this study it is attempted to delineate generic
boundaries, and to come to a generic circumscription which is more correct
from an evolutionary point of view by means of multilocus sequence typing.
Therefore, multiple analyses were conducted utilising sequences obtained from
28S nrDNA (Large Subunit - LSU), 18S nrDNA (Small Subunit - SSU), the Internal
Transcribed Spacer regions 1 & 2 and 5.8S nrDNA (ITS), and part of the
β-tubulin (TUB) gene region. A total of 324 strains were included in the
analyses of which most belonged to <italic>Phoma</italic>
taxa, whilst 54 to related
pleosporalean fungi. In total, 206 taxa were investigated, of which 159 are
known to have affinities to <italic>Phoma</italic>
. The phylogenetic analysis revealed
that the current Boeremaean subdivision is incorrect from an evolutionary
point of view, revealing the genus to be highly polyphyletic. <italic>Phoma</italic>
species are retrieved in six distinct clades within the <italic>Pleosporales</italic>
,
and appear to reside in different families. The majority of the species,
however, including the generic type, clustered in a recently established
family, <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. In the second part of this study, the
phylogenetic variation of the species and varieties in this clade was further
assessed. Next to the genus <italic>Didymella</italic>
, which is considered to be the
sole teleomorph of <italic>Phoma s. str</italic>
., we also retrieved taxa belonging to
the teleomorph genera <italic>Leptosphaerulina</italic>
and <italic>Macroventuria</italic>
in
this clade. Based on the sequence data obtained, the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
segregate into at least 18 distinct clusters, of which many can be associated
with several specific taxonomic characters. Four of these clusters were
defined well enough by means of phylogeny and morphology, so that the
associated taxa could be transferred to separate genera. Aditionally, this
study addresses the taxonomic description of eight species and two varieties
that are novel to science, and the recombination of 61 additional taxa.</p>

<body><sec><title>INTRODUCTION</title>
<p>Coelomycetous fungi (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref93">Grove
1935</xref>
) are geographically widespread and are found in numerous
ecological niches. Sutton
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">1980</xref>
) mentions exponents of
this anamorph group inhabiting soil, organic debris, and water, as well as
species that parasitise other fungi, lichens, insects and vertebrates. A
substantial percentage of the coelomycetes is associated with plant material,
either as opportunists or as primary pathogens
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">Sutton 1980</xref>
).</p>
<p>Difficulties in morphological identification have resulted in a poor
understanding of the generic and species boundaries in the coelomycetes
(Sutton <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref218">1977</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">1980</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref146">Nag Raj 1981</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref6">Van der Aa <italic>et al.</italic>
1990</xref>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref225">2005a</xref>

,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al</italic>
.
2009</xref>
). In an attempt to improve the classification of the
coelomycetes, Sutton (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">1980</xref>
)
proposed to divide the order into six suborders, which unfortunately proved to
be highly artificial from an evolutionary perspective
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al</italic>
.
2009</xref>
).</p>
<p>The current common procedure for isolate identification, which chiefly
relies on similarity of DNA sequences to those found in public DNA libraries
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref115">Hyde & Soytong 2007</xref>
),
combined with the high level of incorrectly identified sequences in these
databases (Bridge <italic>et al.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref59">2003</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref60">2004</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref150">Nilsson <italic>et al.</italic>
2006</xref>
)
placed the likelihood of achieving correct identifications of coelomycetous
fungi under intense scrutiny. As pointed out by De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
), for appropriate
morphological identifications within the coelomycete genera <italic>in vitro</italic>
studies are essential, for example in the cases in which quarantine pathogens
are involved (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref18">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2008</xref>
). For the current generic delimitation of this class, the use
of conidiogenesis characters as taxonomic criteria is of major importance
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref114">Hughes 1953</xref>
;

).</p>
<sec><title>Phoma</title>
<p>The genus <italic>Phoma</italic>
Sacc. emend. Boerema & G.J. Bollen
(<italic>Pleosporales</italic>
) is a good example of a coelomycetous genus made
fascinating by its great ecological diversity, but taxing investigators with
profound difficulties in making identifications. The majority of the taxa
within this mitosporic genus have been found in association with land plants,
causing mainly leaf and stem spots
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref18">Aveskamp <italic>et al</italic>
.
2008</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref242">Zhang <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). Approximately 50 % of the <italic>Phoma</italic>
taxa that were
redescribed by Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
) are recognised as
relevant phytopathogenic fungi, including a series of pathogens with
quarantine status (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref18">Aveskamp <italic>et al</italic>
.
2008</xref>
). Although most taxa are continuously present in the
environment as saprobic soil organisms, many species switch to a pathogenic
lifestyle when a suitable host is encountered
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref18">Aveskamp <italic>et al</italic>
.
2008</xref>
). The genus further comprises several species and varieties
that are recognised as endophytic, fungicolous and lichenicolous fungi
(<italic>e.g.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref103">Hawksworth
1981</xref>

al.</italic>
2007</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref194">Schoch <italic>et
al</italic>
. 2009a</xref>
). In addition, approximately 10 species are known
as pathogens of humans (<italic>e.g.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref108">De
Hoog <italic>et al</italic>
. 2000</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref21">Balis <italic>et al.</italic>
2006</xref>
)
and other vertebrates, such as cattle
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref68">Costa <italic>et al.</italic>
1993</xref>
)
and fish (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref184">Ross <italic>et al</italic>

1975</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref102">Hatai <italic>et al</italic>

1989</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref86">Faisal <italic>et al</italic>
.
2007</xref>
). Next to such an active role in vertebrate pathology,
<italic>Phoma</italic>
spp. may indirectly affect animal health by the production of
toxic secondary metabolites (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref26">Bennett
1983</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref162">Pedras & Biesenthal
2000</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref176">Rai <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
), as is known for <italic>Ph. sorghina</italic>
in straw roofs in
South Africa (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref174">Rabie <italic>et al.</italic>
1975</xref>
) and may be the case in <italic>Ph. pomorum</italic>
in cattle feed
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref209">Sørensen <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). An almost completely unexplored habitat of <italic>Phoma</italic>
spp. is the marine environment (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref128">Kohlmeyer
& Volkmann-Kohlmeyer 1991</xref>
), in which <italic>Phoma</italic>
species
are regularly found that are completely new to science (<italic>e.g.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref156">Osterhage <italic>et al</italic>
.
2000</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref241">Yarden <italic>et al</italic>
.
2007</xref>
).</p>
<p>The genus <italic>Phoma</italic>
has always been considered to be one of the
largest fungal genera, with more than 3 000 infrageneric taxa described
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref137">Monte <italic>et al</italic>
. 1991</xref>
).
The number of species described in <italic>Phoma</italic>
rose to this level due to
the common practice of host associated nomenclature, in combination with the
paucity in micromorphological characters and a high variability in cultural
characteristics. These factors have resulted in the fact that the systematics
of the genus never has been fully understood
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref18">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2008</xref>
). Based on various morphological features depicted by earlier
workers, probably less than one-tenth of the 3 200 species listed in MycoBank
(<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="www.mycobank.org">www.mycobank.org</ext-link>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref72">Crous <italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref182">Robert <italic>et al.</italic>
2005</xref>
)
can currently still be recognised as a separate <italic>Phoma</italic>
taxon. Many of
those names were thus already reduced to synonymy after an extensive study of
the genus (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al</italic>
.
2004</xref>
), and after a thoroughly revised generic concept of the
morphologically similar genera <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref36">Boerema & Bollen 1975</xref>
)
and <italic>Phyllosticta</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref2">Van der Aa
1973</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref5">Van der Aa & Vanev
2002</xref>
). Many other species could be recombined into other
coelomycete genera, such as <italic>Asteromella, Microsphaeropsis, Phomopsis,
Pleurophoma, Pyrenochaeta</italic>
and <italic>Stagonospora</italic>
(Sutton
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref217">1964</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">1980</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref36">Boerema & Bollen 1975</xref>
). In
addition, <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
and <italic>Paraconiothyrium</italic>
have regularly
been mistaken for <italic>Phoma</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref228">Verkley
<italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref78">Damm
<italic>et al.</italic>
2008</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref239">Woudenberg <italic>et al</italic>
.
2009</xref>
). In their studies, Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
) recognised a total of
215 <italic>Phoma</italic>
taxa and eight teleomorph species with an unnamed
<italic>Phoma</italic>
anamorph, although this is probably just the tip of the iceberg
as, thus far, only 40 % of the herbarium species mentioned in literature could
be recovered and studied properly. Additionally, novel species are described
regularly in this genus (<italic>e.g.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref104">Hawksworth & Cole 2004</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref225">Torres <italic>et al.</italic>
2005a</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref131">Li <italic>et al.</italic>
2006</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref81">Diederich <italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref80">Davidson <italic>et
al.</italic>
2009</xref>
).</p>
<p>A subdivision of the asexual genus <italic>Phoma</italic>
that is currently widely
applied divides the genus into nine sections, including the sections
<italic>Phoma, Heterospora, Macrospora, Paraphoma, Peyronellaea, Phyllostictoides,
Pilosa, Plenodomus</italic>
and <italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref34">Boerema 1997</xref>
). These sections
are primarily based on just a few morphological or physiological characters
and have not been confirmed as biologically realistic by molecular biological
studies. The number of taxa per section may vary, ranging from almost 70
species in section <italic>Phoma</italic>
to only two in section <italic>Pilosa</italic>
. In
<xref ref-type="table" rid="tbl1">Table 1</xref>
, a list is provided
with the main characters of every section
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref34">Boerema 1997</xref>
). This
subdivision into sections has led to an identification system that is
considered to be extremely helpful in morphological identification
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
). However, as was hypothesised by Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
), the classification has
proved to be artificial. Molecular evidence has shown that the sections are
linked to phylogenetically distinct teleomorph genera
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref178">Reddy <italic>et al</italic>
. 1998</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref226">Torres <italic>et al.</italic>
2005b</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al</italic>
.
2009</xref>
). Even these teleomorph genera are not always monophyletic
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref139">Morales <italic>et al.</italic>
1995</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref62">Câmara <italic>et
al.</italic>
2002</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref126">Kodsueb <italic>et
al</italic>
. 2006</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref116">Inderbitzin
<italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). In addition, characters that are thought to
be specific for a certain section appeared to be polyphyletic, as is
illustrated for dictyochlamydospores and setose pycnidia, the main characters
for the sections <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
) and <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref92">Grondona <italic>et al</italic>
.
1997</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref101">De Gruyter <italic>et
al.</italic>
2010</xref>
) respectively. Furthermore, <italic>Phoma</italic>
section
<italic>Phoma</italic>
, a group of species which is characterised by the absence of
chlamydospores, septate conidia, and pycnidial ornamentation or wall
thickening, is considered to be a repository for degenerated and
insufficiently understood species that could not be placed elsewhere.</p>

<p>The genus <italic>Phoma</italic>
is typified by <italic>Phoma herbarum</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref29">Boerema 1964</xref>
). This species
has thus far not been linked to any teleomorph, but several other species that
are currently accommodated in <italic>Phoma</italic>
do have a sexual state. The
species in the section <italic>Pilosa</italic>
are linked to the teleomorph genus
<italic>Pleospora</italic>
, while many species in the section <italic>Plenodomus</italic>
have
a sexual state in <italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
. As mentioned above,
<italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
is para- or possibly polyphyletic
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref139">Morales <italic>et al.</italic>
1995</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref62">Câmara <italic>et
al.</italic>
2002</xref>
). A teleomorph in the poorly studied genus
<italic>Didymella</italic>
is associated with approximately 40 <italic>Phoma</italic>
species
placed in sections <italic>Phoma, Phyllostictoides</italic>
and
<italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et
al</italic>
. 2004</xref>
). Moreover, <italic>Phoma</italic>
has been linked in
literature to several other teleomorph genera, such as <italic>Mycosphaerella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref69">Corlett 1991</xref>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref94">De Gruyter 2002</xref>

(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref127">Kohlmeyer & Volkmann-Kohlmeyer

), <italic>Atradidymella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref79">Davey & Currah 2009</xref>
) and
<italic>Fenestella, Cucurbitaria, Preussia</italic>

(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref14">Von Arx 1981</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref242">Zhang <italic>et al</italic>
. 2009</xref>
).
None of these hypothesised teleomorph-anamorph linkages is supported by
molecular evidence. All must be investigated by study of type material.
However, these associations are unlikely as the mentioned teleomorph genera
are not linked to the <italic>Pleosporales</italic>
. The species and teleomorph
relations are also not recognised by Boerema <italic>et al</italic>
.
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
), except for two
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species of the section <italic>Macrospora, Ph. rabiei</italic>
and
<italic>Ph. zeae-maydis</italic>
which were linked to
“<italic>Mycosphaerella</italic>
” teleomorphs as <italic>M. rabiei</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref122">Kaiser 1997</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref94">De Gruyter 2002</xref>
) and <italic>M.
zeae-maydis</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref142">Mukunya & Boothroid
1973</xref>
) respectively. Both species also have names in
<italic>Didymella</italic>
. The use of those names is recommended, since
<italic>Mycosphaerella</italic>
has been shown to be phylogenetically widely separated
from all known <italic>Phoma</italic>
species (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De
Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
, Crous <italic>et al</italic>
.
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref74">2009a</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref75">b</xref>
).</p>
<p>Characteristic strains of the genus concerned have been used in a
Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) study of the <italic>Dothideomycetes</italic>
, which
indicated that <italic>Phoma</italic>
is phylogenetically embedded in the
<italic>Pleosporales</italic>
(Schoch <italic>et al</italic>
.
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref193">2006</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref195">2009b</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref242">Zhang <italic>et al</italic>
. 2009</xref>
).
A similar, but smaller scale study aiming to delineate the species in the
unofficial suborder Phialopycnidiineae
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">Sutton 1980</xref>
), revealed that
<italic>Phoma</italic>
is highly polyphyletic, as reference species of the various
sections were recovered in distinct clades of the reconstructed phylogeny
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). Type species of the sections <italic>Heterospora, Plenodomus,
Paraphoma</italic>
and <italic>Pilosa</italic>
appeared to be ancestral to a cluster
comprising types of the other sections, as well as to members of the anamorph
genera <italic>Ascochyta, Microsphaeropsis, Chaetasbolisia, Coniothyrium</italic>
and
<italic>Paraconiothyrium.</italic>
This group has been elevated to family level and is
now recognised as the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). A B<sc>last</sc>
-search in public sequence libraries
revealed a high genetic similarity between species ascribed to the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
and two other teleomorph genera, <italic>Macroventuria</italic>
and <italic>Leptosphaerulina</italic>
, although these genera are morphologically
clearly distinct from <italic>Didymella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref1">Van der Aa 1971</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref14">Von Arx 1981</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref242">Zhang <italic>et al</italic>
. 2009</xref>
).
The genetic similarity between those two genera has been observed before by
Kodsueb <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref126">2006</xref>
), but the phylogenetic
relationship with the genus <italic>Didymella</italic>
was not noted in their study.
Members of these two genera have therefore also been included in this
study.</p>
<p>To solve the problems in quarantine species identification of isolates
taken from samples obtained during phytosanitary border controls, a
comprehensive taxonomic system is required
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref18">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2008</xref>
). As DNA-based techniques do become more and more important
in identification and detection of plant pathogens
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref58">Bridge 2002</xref>
), such a
taxonomic system should be in line with sequence data. One of the major
initiatives in this field is the development of DNA Barcodes
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref105">Hebert <italic>et al.</italic>
2003</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref215">Summerbell <italic>et al</italic>
.
2005</xref>
), which has been promising in the rapid detection of
potentially serious plant pathogens
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref17">Armstrong & Ball
2005</xref>
).</p>
<p>Three genes have in recent years been proposed as standard loci for use in
DNA barcoding in fungi. These comprise the internal transcribed spacers (ITS)
of the rDNA operon ITS region (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref84">Druzhinina
<italic>et al.</italic>
2005</xref>
), actin (ACT,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009b</xref>
), and cytochrome <italic>c</italic>
oxidase subunit I (COI,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref198">Seifert <italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
). The last locus was successfully applied in DNA Barcoding of
<italic>Penicillium</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref198">Seifert <italic>et
al.</italic>
2007</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref65">Chen <italic>et
al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). However, COI analysis applied to a subset of
<italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
related strains, did not reveal taxon-specific conserved
SNPs (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009b</xref>
), whilst in an attempt to barcode <italic>Aspergillus</italic>
, COI
was found to have limited value (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref90">Geiser
<italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
). Although ACT has proven helpful in
resolving the phylogeny of <italic>Phoma exigua</italic>
below species level
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009b</xref>
), it could not be applied in the present study, as
interspecific variation proved to be too high to align the obtained sequences
properly. The use of ITS as fungal barcode locus is most popular
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref197">Seifert 2009</xref>
) and has been
applied in several taxonomic groups, such as <italic>Trichoderma</italic>
and
<italic>Hypocrea</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref84">Druzhinina <italic>et
al.</italic>
2005</xref>
), and <italic>Trichophyton</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref216">Summerbell <italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
) and in ecological groups such as wood-inhabiting fungi
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref147">Naumann <italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
). The power of this locus for barcoding lies in the multiple
copies that are present within each cell; this phenomenon results in lower
detection thresholds than can be obtained with single-copy loci. Despite the
general practicality of using ITS in barcoding, the locus is relatively
conservative and may oversimplify species delimitations or blur generic
boundaries in some groups (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref151">Nilsson <italic>et
al.</italic>
2008</xref>
). In the present study, a combination of four loci
is therefore applied. These include two loci that are renowned for their
capacity to resolve phylogenies above family level, namely parts of the LSU
(Large Subunit – 28S) and SSU (Small Subunit – 18S) nrDNA.
Additinally two loci were applied that mainly provide resolution at species
level – or even below. In addition to the abovementioned ITS regions,
also part of the β-tubulin gene was utilised, which was successfully
applied in a preliminary study on <italic>Phoma</italic>
species of the section
<italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et
al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
).</p>
<p>For the present study, four objectives were defined. The main objective of
this study was to reach consensus on the circumscription of the genus
<italic>Phoma</italic>
. A modified definition of the genus is not only helpful in
taxonomy, but will also be of interest to plant quarantine officers
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref18">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2008</xref>
). Teleomorph associations of <italic>Phoma</italic>
are still
uncertain, and here we attempt to shed light on the sexual state of <italic>Phoma
s. str</italic>
. Species representing all <italic>Phoma</italic>
sections were included
and DNA sequences were compared with those of other species in the
<italic>Pleosporales</italic>
.</p>
<p>Secondly, we aimed to integrate morphological and cultural features with
DNA sequence data to resolve the generic limits of taxa currently placed in
the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. The number of genera in this family is still
unclear. Although De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
) found a series of
genera that, according to their reconstructed phylogeny, clustered in this
family, many were not clearly defined or were morphologically distant from
each other, although all anamorph taxa found are accommodated in the
coelomycetes (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">Sutton 1980</xref>
).
Examples of these taxa were included in this study, although the number of
<italic>Ascochyta, Coniothyrium</italic>
and <italic>Microsphaeropsis</italic>
species is too
high to take all infrageneric taxa of these adjacent genera into account.</p>
<p>Further, we aimed to validate the <italic>Phoma</italic>
sections, which are widely
applied in <italic>Phoma</italic>
species recognition. Are the sections representing
evolutionary units, and what is the taxonomical value of the characters used
to define the sections? To judge the value of the Boeremaean taxonomic system,
representative species of all sections were studied, including the sectional
type species. The main focus was, however, to resolve the sections associated
with <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. A single generic name, based on priority but
regardless of whether it is an “anamorph” or
“teleomorph” genus, is used for all unambiguous monophyletic
phylogenetic lineages (Crous <italic>et al</italic>
.
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref73">2006</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref74">2009a</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref75">b</xref>
). Finally, we aimed to
assess the molecular variation within species that have historically been
placed in <italic>Phoma</italic>
. Genes were tested for their potential reliability as
standard barcoding genes for <italic>Phoma</italic>
species.</p>
<p>For this study, a sequence data set was generated and morphological data
assembled for the more than 300 well-vouchered strains available in the
culture collections of CBS (CBS-KNAW Fungal Biodiversity Centre, Utrecht, the
Netherlands) and PD (Plantenziektenkundige Dienst, Dutch Plant Protection
Service, Wageningen, the Netherlands). In addition, five species recognised in
a recent study in the section <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
) have also been included, as well as several strains that
could not be associated with any of the species that were accepted in
<italic>Phoma</italic>
by Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
), and that were
maintained as unnamed <italic>Phoma</italic>
species in the culture collections
mentioned above. These strains were recognised as taxonomic novelties and are
described at species or variety level in the present paper. Furthermore,
several species were relocated to more appropriate genera based on the results
obtained.</p>

<sec sec-type="materials|methods"><title>MATERIALS AND METHODS</title>
<sec><title>Strain selection</title>
<p>A total of 324 strains, belonging to 206 species were selected for the
present study. The majority of these species (159) belonged to the genus
<italic>Phoma</italic>
or its associated teleomorphs, the remainder to genera that are
regularly confused with this genus and that belong to the
<italic>Pleosporales</italic>
according to the studies published by De Gruyter <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
). Besides the
anamorphous species that were included, representatives of the teleomorph
genera <italic>Didymella, Leptosphaeria, Leptosphaerulina, Macroventuria</italic>
and
<italic>Pleospora</italic>
were also included. The recently described genus
<italic>Atradidymella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref79">Davey & Currah
2009</xref>
) was not available for study and therefore excluded.</p>
<p>Strains were obtained from CBS and PD culture collections in lyophilised
form or from the liquid nitrogen collection. Freeze-dried strains were revived
overnight in 2 mL malt/peptone (50 % / 50 %) liquid medium. Subsequently, the
cultures were transferred and maintained on oatmeal agar (OA,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref76">Crous <italic>et al.</italic>
2009c</xref>
).
The strains that were stored at -196 °C were directly plated on the same
agar medium.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>DNA extraction, amplification and sequence analysis</title>
<p>Genomic DNA extraction was performed using the Ultraclean Microbial DNA
isolation kit (Mo Bio Laboratories, Carlsbad, CA, U.S.A.), according to the
instructions of the manufacturer. All DNA extracts were diluted 10 × in
milliQ water and stored at 4 °C before their use as PCR templates.</p>
<p>For nucleotide sequence comparisons fragments of four loci were analysed:
LSU, SSU, ITS, and TUB. Amplification of LSU and SSU was conducted utilising
the primer combination LR0R (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref180">Rehner &
Samuels 1994</xref>
) and LR7
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref229">Vilgalys & Hester 1990</xref>
)
for LSU sequencing and the primer pair NS1 and NS4
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref234">White <italic>et al.</italic>
1990</xref>
)
for SSU. The PCRs were performed in a 2720 Thermal Cycler (Applied Biosystems,
Foster City, California) in a total volume of 12.5 μL. The PCR mixture
contained 0.5 μL 10 × diluted genomic DNA, 0.2 μM of each primer,
0.5 Unit Taq polymerase E (Genaxxon Bioscience, Germany), 0.04 mM (SSU) or
0.06 mM (LSU) of each of the dNTP, 2 mM MgCl<sub>2</sub>
and 1 × PCR
buffer E incomplete (Genaxxon Bioscience). Conditions for amplification for
both regions were an initial denaturation step of 5 min at 94 °C, followed
by 35 cycles of denaturation, annealing and elongation and a final elongation
step of 7 min at 72 °C. For the SSU amplification, the 35 cycles consisted
of 30 s at 94 °C, 50 s at 48 °C and 90 s at 72 °C; for the LSU 45
s at 94 °C, 45 s at 48 °C and 2 min at 72 °C. The loci ITS and TUB
were amplified as described by Aveskamp <italic>et al</italic>
.
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">2009a</xref>
), using the primer
pairs V9G (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref107">De Hoog & Gerrits van den
Ende 1998</xref>
) and ITS4 (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref234">White
<italic>et al.</italic>
1990</xref>
) for ITS sequencing and the BT2Fw and BT4Rd
primer pair (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
) for sequencing of the TUB locus. PCR products were analysed
by electrophoresis in a 1.0 % (w/v) agarose gel containing 0.1 ug/mL ethidium
bromide in 1 × TAE buffer (0.4 M Tris, 0.05 M glacial acetetic acid 0.01
M ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid [EDTA], pH 7.85). The amplicons were
visualised under UV light. Hyperladder I (Bioline, Luckenwalde, Germany) was
applied as size standard.</p>
<p>The obtained amplicons were sequenced in both directions using the same
primer combinations, except for LSU, where an additional primer, LR5
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref234">White <italic>et al.</italic>
1990</xref>
)
was further required to assure complete coverage of the locus. Sequencing
reactions were prepared with the BigDye terminator chemistry v. 3.1 (Applied
Biosystems) according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Sequence products
were purified with Sephadex G-50 Fine (Amersham Biosciences, Roosendaal, the
Netherlands) and subsequently separated and analysed on an ABI Prism 3730 DNA
Sequencer (Applied Biosystems). Consensus sequences were computed from the
forward and reverse sequences using the BioNumerics v. 4.61 software package
(Applied Maths, St-Martens-Latem, Belgium). The consensus sequences are
deposited in GenBank (For GenBank accession numbers see Tables

<p>Obtained consensus sequences were assembled and aligned using the same
BioNumerics software and adjusted manually where necessary. As SSU was highly
conserved in deeper node phylogenies, revealing almost no phylogenetic
informative nuclear polymorphisms, and as ITS and TUB proved to be unalignable
due to a high level of polymorphism if all taxa studied would be taken into
account, it was decided to conduct two separate analyses. The first analysis
comprised SSU and LSU loci, and was applied to 76 taxa of which most species
included belonged to genera that were often confused with <italic>Phoma</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">Sutton 1980</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). A second set of analyses was conducted on 274 taxa, and
focussed on the species that had proven to be related to the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
from preliminary studies.</p>
<p>Each of the phylogenetic analyses consisted of two methods: Bayesian
Interference (BI) and Maximum Likelihood (ML). For BI analysis, the nucleotide
substitution models were determined for each locus separately with MrModeltest
v. 2.2 (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref153">Nylander 2004</xref>
).
According to this software, the General Time Reversible substitution was
determined to be the best model for SSU, TUB and LSU in both data sets, with
inverse gamma rates and dirichlet base frequencies (GTR + I + G). For the ITS
dataset, the software suggested the Symmetrical Model as the best model for
substitution of nucleotides. Also in this locus, the inverse gamma rates and
dirichlet base frequencies were used (SYM + I + G). The actual Bayesian
calculations were performed in MrBayes v. 3.1.2
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref113">Huelsenbeck & Ronquist
2001</xref>
). One tree was saved per 100 generations, and the run was
automatically ended when the standard deviation of split frequencies was below
0.01. The temperature value of the Bayesian run was set at 0.2. To avoid
suboptimal trees being taking into account for the consensus tree, a burn-in
of 25 % of the saved trees was used. The resulting “50 % majority rule
consensus” trees were visualised with TreeView v. 1.6.6
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref157">Page 1996</xref>
).</p>
<p>A second measure of branch support was obtained by conducting a ML analysis
using RAxML software (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref210">Stamatakis <italic>et
al.</italic>
2005</xref>
) through the CIPRES Website
(<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="www.phylo.org">www.phylo.org</ext-link>
).
The same partitions were used as in the BI analyses, but because RAxML
implements only the GTR substitution model, the symmetrical model for the ITS
partition was waived. The robustness of trees in the ML analyses was evaluated
by bootstrapping the datasets. The number of bootstrap replicates was
automatically determined by the RAxML software
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref211">Stamatakis <italic>et al.</italic>
2008</xref>
). The obtained trees in both analyses are lodged with
TreeBASE
(<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="www.treebase.org">www.treebase.org</ext-link>
).</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Morphology</title>
<p>Morphological studies of the strains were performed on OA, malt extract
agar (MEA) and cherry decoction agar (CHA)
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref76">Crous <italic>et al</italic>
. 2009c</xref>
).
The cultures were incubated according to the methodologies described by
Boerema <italic>et al</italic>
.
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
). Eight days after
inoculation, the colony growth was measured. At the 15<sup>th</sup>
day after
incubation, the colony colours were rated using the colour charts of Rayner
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref177">1970</xref>
). Micromorphological
features were studied after maturation of the pycnidia. Therefore, fungal
structures were mounted in tap water using a scalpel blade and examined under
a stereo light microscope. Perennial structures that were formed in the agar
medium, such as chlamydospores, were cut out from the medium, and mounted in
lactic acid. Remaining agar was removed from these samples by gently heating
the glass slides. The sizes of the various structures were determined by
averaging the measurements of 30 samples of each structure, except for
conidiogenous cells and pycnidial wall characters, of which the size ranges
were estimated based on 5–10 samples. Fifth and 95<sup>th</sup>
percentiles were determined for all measurements and are provided in
parentheses. By application of a droplet of 1N NaOH, the production of
metabolite E+ was determined (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref83">Dorenbosch
1970</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref152">Noordeloos <italic>et
al</italic>
. 1993</xref>
). The structure of the pycnidial wall and shape of
conidiogenous cells were studied using microtome sections of 6 μm
thickness, prepared with a Leica CM3050 freezing microtome and mounted in
lactic acid. Taxonomic recombinations and novel species and descriptions were
deposited in MycoBank.</p>

<p>Due to alignment difficulties multiple datasets, consisting of different
sets of loci, were utilised. For a generic overview, LSU and SSU were included
in the first alignment, which consisted of 76 taxa. A list of species names
and numbers, original substrates, geographical origins and GenBank accession
numbers of the strains used in this study is provided in
<xref ref-type="table" rid="tbl2">Table 2</xref>
. The aligned sequence
matrix had a total length of 2 210 characters including alignment gaps (LSU: 1
258 and SSU: 952 bp). Of those characters, 1 809 (LSU: 994 and SSU: 815) were
constant and 401 were variable (LSU: 264 and SSU: 137). The Bayesian analysis
run was aborted after 10 000 000 generations as a point of stationarity was
reached in the average standard deviation of split frequencies, at a value of
0.0288. The applied “burn-in” percentage of 25 % was well after
stationarity in the probability of the trees was reached. The tree topologies
and support values of the ML analysis, differed only slightly from the trees
obtained from the Bayesian analyses, supporting the probability of the tree.
The tree is rooted to <italic>Pseudorobillarda phragmitis</italic>
(<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.studiesinmycology.org/cgi/external_ref?access_num=398.61&link_type=cbs">CBS 398.61</ext-link>

<p>Based on the LSU-SSU phylogenetic study performed here for the various
anamorph and teleomorph species in the <italic>Phoma</italic>
complex, eight clades
were revealed (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Fig. 1</xref>
),
including one which only comprises the outgroup specimen. The various clades
will be treated below, but for additional synonymy on the <italic>Phoma</italic>
species we refer to Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
). The findings in these
clades are largely in congruence with the observations of De Gruyter <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
).</p>
<p>Species that were ascribed to the <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Phoma</italic>
by
Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
)
appear to be genetically highly heterogeneous, as these species are recovered
in almost every clade. Species that were ascribed to <italic>Phoma</italic>
section
<italic>Heterospora</italic>
appear to be linked to at least three distinct clades.
Also polymorphism is observed for sections <italic>Paraphoma, Peyronellaea</italic>
and <italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
, as well as for <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
and
<italic>Ascochyta</italic>
. The type species of this latter genus, <italic>A. pisi</italic>
,
is not included in the present tree, but is genetically similar to the

<sec><title>Clade 1, Outgroup:</title>
<p><italic>Pseudorobillarda phragmitis</italic>
was selected as outgroup on the basis
of the studies conducted by De Gruyter <italic>et al</italic>
.
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
). This species,
although being recognised as a coelomycete, is not only phylogenetically, but
also morphologically distinct from <italic>Phoma</italic>
, although Sutton
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">1980</xref>
) classified it in the
Phialopycnidiineae.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Clade 2, Sporormiaceae:</title>
<p>In the basal lineages, <italic>Sporormiella minima</italic>
(<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.studiesinmycology.org/cgi/external_ref?access_num=524.50&link_type=cbs">CBS 524.50</ext-link>
) was
recovered, representing the <italic>Sporormiaceae</italic>
, which was recently
recircumscribed (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref22">Barr 2000</xref>
).
In the same clade, two species were recovered that are described in
<italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Phoma</italic>
: <italic>Ph. capitulum</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
minutispora</italic>
. Both species are distinguishable from other species in this
Boeremaean section by the production of relatively small subglobose conidia
(measuring <italic>ca</italic>
. 2–5 × 1.5–3 μm) with a few, large
guttules. Within the <italic>Sporormiaceae</italic>
, teleomorphs species have been
reported with phoma-like anamorphs, such as <italic>Westerdykella dispersa</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref14">Von Arx 1981</xref>
). Two
<italic>Sporormiaceae</italic>
-associated genera, <italic>Sporormia</italic>
and
<italic>Preussia</italic>
, have been mentioned as possible teleomorph for <italic>Ph.
deserticola</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref16">Von Arx & Storm
1967</xref>
), a species that was regarded as miscellaneous by Boerema
<italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
). Also
these anamorphs produce minute (sub-) globose conidia
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref14">Von Arx 1981</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
).
Although the <italic>Sporormiaceae</italic>
belongs to the <italic>Pleosporales</italic>
(Barr
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref22">2000</xref>

), it forms a rather basal clade to most of the other
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species, and a taxonomic revision of <italic>Ph. capitulum</italic>
and
<italic>Ph. minutispora</italic>
should therefore be considered.</p>

<p>This clade comprises a range of species that almost all belong to different
genera. <italic>Phoma lini</italic>
and <italic>Ph. flavescens</italic>
are the two
<italic>Phoma</italic>
representatives found in this clade, although they are not
sister species. Based on morphological data, both species were accommodated in
<italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Phoma</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref97">De
Gruyter <italic>et al</italic>
. 1993</xref>
). Both species produce a yellow
diffusible pigment <italic>in vitro</italic>
, although a positive reaction to NaOH is
only observed in <italic>Ph. lini</italic>
. Both <italic>Ph. flavescens</italic>
and <italic>Ph.

are closely related to <italic>Paraconiothyrium minitans</italic>
(≡
<italic>Coniothyrium minitans</italic>
; <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref228">Verkley

<italic>Paraconiothyrium</italic>

species that normally produce more phomoid pycnidia

<sec><title>Clade 5, Cucurbitariaceae:</title>
<p>Clade 5 comprises mainly taxa with setose pycnidia, including several
representative species of the genus <italic>Pyrenochaeta.</italic>
In addition, a
<italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
sp., <italic>Phialophorophoma litoralis</italic>
and
<italic>Pleurophoma cava</italic>
grouped in this clade, as well as two <italic>Phoma</italic>
species, <italic>Ph. pratorum</italic>
(section <italic>Phoma</italic>
) <italic>and Ph.
terricola</italic>
, (section <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
). Another representative of the
section <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
that is included in this study is <italic>Ph.
radicina</italic>
, which is however found in clade 6. The taxonomy of setose
species that are currently classified in <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Paraphoma,
Pyrenochaeta</italic>
and <italic>Pleurophoma</italic>
is revised
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref101">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>

). Also in several non-<italic>Paraphoma</italic>
species in the genus
<italic>Phoma</italic>
setose or semi-pilose pycnidia do occur incidentally
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>

). However, thus far, no setae-forming <italic>Ph. pratorum</italic>
strains have been recorded. The finding of this species in the present clade
is thus highly remarkable.</p>
<p>The <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
strain in this clade
(<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.studiesinmycology.org/cgi/external_ref?access_num=122787&link_type=cbs">CBS 122787</ext-link>
) was
previously identified as <italic>C. cerealis</italic>
, and is found to be closely
related to <italic>Pyrenochaeta acicola</italic>
(BPP = 0.99, RBS = 100 %). As was
illustrated in a previous study of Muthumeenakshi <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref145">2001</xref>
) <italic>C. cerealis</italic>
is quite distantly related to other <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
species. However,
based on comparison with sequence data available in GenBank, it is unlikely
that its previous identification was correct. This finding further illustrates
the polyphyly of the genus <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
, which further has been
retrieved in clades 4, 6 (<italic>Phaeosphaeriaceae</italic>
), 7
(<italic>Leptosphaeriaceae</italic>
and <italic>Pleosporaceae</italic>
) and 8
(<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
). As mentioned before, some species of this genus have
been associated with the teleomorph genus <italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
, and are thus
expected to cluster with the <italic>Leptosphaeriaceae</italic>
(clade 7). None of the
species recovered in clade 5 has been associated with a teleomorph.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Clade 6, Phaeosphaeriaceae:</title>
<p>The species that are found in the well-supported clade 6 (BPP = 1.00; RBS =
83 %), belong to the morphologically heterogeneous group of the
<italic>Phaeosphaeriaceae</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref28">Boehm <italic>et
al</italic>
. 2009</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref242">Zhang <italic>et
al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). Most findings in this clade have already been
discussed in the previous paper of De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
). In addition to that
study, six <italic>Phoma</italic>
species are retrieved in this clade. <italic>Phoma
radicina</italic>
, type of <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
, is found in
close association with <italic>Ph. chrysanthemicola</italic>
(BPP = 1.00; RBS = 90 %).
The association between <italic>Ph. radicina</italic>
and the
<italic>Phaeosphaeriaceae</italic>
is further discussed by De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref101">2010</xref>
). Its close association
with <italic>Ph. chrysanthemicola</italic>
has been observed before by Aveskamp <italic>et
al.</italic>
(2008a), but the link with the <italic>Phaeosphaeriaceae</italic>
has not
been established. Strains of <italic>Ph. chrysanthemicola</italic>
exhibit some
semi-setose pycnidia that are, however, often fully covered by mycelial hairs
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref33">Boerema 1993</xref>
). This is a
feature that is in common with <italic>Ph. radicina</italic>
, which has, as type
species of the section <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
, clearly visible setae. In contrast,
the main characteristic of <italic>Ph. chrysanthemicola</italic>
, the presence of
pseudosclerotioid masses, has never been observed in the latter species.
However, also not all strains of <italic>Ph. chrysanthemicola</italic>
exhibit this
character (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref83">Dorenbosch
1970</xref>
).</p>
<p><italic>Phoma fimeti</italic>
forms a subclade with <italic>Ph. samarorum</italic>
and a
strain that was previously identified as <italic>Stenocarpella macrospora</italic>
(BPP = 0.98; RBS = 67 %), but that is probably misidentified
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). Especially the finding of <italic>Ph. samarorum</italic>
is
noteworthy, as it is found rather distinct from two clusters of other species
belonging to the section <italic>Heterospora</italic>
, which are retrieved among the
<italic>Leptosphaeriaceae</italic>
and <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
(clades 7 and 8). In
contrast to these other <italic>Heterospora</italic>
species, the large conidia of
<italic>Ph. samarorum</italic>
that can be observed <italic>in planta</italic>
are clearly
distinct by the subulate top cells, and measures up to 17 × 3.5 μm
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
1997</xref>
). The strain identified as <italic>Stenocarpella macrospora</italic>
is now sterile and therefore not studied morphologically. This species is
known to produce similar-shaped, septate conidia, which are however pigmented
and considerably larger, 44–82 × 7.5–11.5 μm
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">Sutton 1980</xref>
). The close
association with <italic>Ph. fimeti</italic>
is therefore remarkable as this species
is known to produce only minute, aseptate conidia, measuring
(2–)2.5–4(–5) × (1.5–)2–2.5(–3)
μm (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref96">De Gruyter & Noordeloos
1992</xref>
).</p>
<p>The remaining two <italic>Phoma</italic>
species in this clade, <italic>Ph.
haematocycla</italic>
and <italic>Ph. opuntiae</italic>
, also produce such minute conidia.
<italic>Phoma haematocyla</italic>
, a flax-associated species from New Zealand, is
retrieved in a subclade that also accommodates <italic>Chaetasphaeronema
hispidulum</italic>
(BPP = 1.00; RBS = 100 %).</p>
<p>All <italic>Phoma</italic>
species found here are morphologically rather distinct,
hence their placement in four different <italic>Phoma</italic>
sections
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
). None of the <italic>Phoma</italic>
species accommodated in this
clade is associated with a teleomorph. The main teleomorph associated with the
<italic>Phaeosphaeriaceae</italic>
is <italic>Phaeosphaeria,</italic>
although also
incidentally a <italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
species is associated with this family
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref62">Câmara <italic>et al.</italic>
2002</xref>
). An anamorph genus that is often confused with
<italic>Phoma</italic>
is <italic>Microsphaeropsis</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref34">Boerema 1997</xref>
), which is
linked to <italic>Phaeosphaeria</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref62">Câmara <italic>et al.</italic>
2002</xref>
). Both anamorph genera differ in conidial pigmentation, which
is commonly only present in mature conidia of <italic>Microsphaeropsis</italic>
.
Younger conidia are, however, often colourless. It may be that the
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species in this clade actually belong to what is now known as
<italic>Microsphaeropsis</italic>
, but have lost the pigmentation character during
evolution.</p>

<sec><title>Clade 7, Leptosphaeriaceae and Pleosporaceae:</title>
<p>Clade 7 is a large clade comprising many <italic>Phoma</italic>
species from
various Boeremaean sections. Three reference species encountered here have

<p>The two <italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
species in this study that were associated
with a <italic>Phoma</italic>
anamorph cluster together in the present clade: <italic>L.
maculans</italic>
(anam <italic>Ph. lingam</italic>
) and <italic>L. biglobosa</italic>
, which
produces an unnamed, phomoid anamorph that is highly similar to <italic>Ph.
lingam</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref202">Shoemaker & Brun

). Both species are serious pathogens of <italic>Brassicaceae</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref89">Fitt <italic>et al.</italic>
2006</xref>
).
<italic>Leptosphaeria biglobosa</italic>
was found to be closely related to <italic>Ph.
lingam</italic>
in previous studies (Mendes-Perreira <italic>et al.</italic>
2003) and was
for a long time recognised as a weakly pathogenic variety of the latter
species (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref118">Johnson & Lewis

<p>The phylogenic relation of <italic>Phoma</italic>
species currently classified in
sections <italic>Pleonodomus</italic>
and <italic>Pilosa</italic>
is currently investigated
(De Gruyter <italic>et al</italic>
. in prep.). However, the present results reveal
that a number of species from other <italic>Phoma</italic>
sections fits in the
<italic>Leptosphaeriaceae</italic>
and <italic>Pleosporaceae</italic>
. These include <italic>Ph.
apiicola, Ph. fallens, Ph. flavigena, Ph. glaucispora, Ph. multipora, Ph.
valerianeae</italic>
and <italic>Ph. vasinfecta</italic>
. In contrast to the species that
are accommodated in sections <italic>Pilosa</italic>
and <italic>Plenodomus</italic>
, pilose
or scleroplectenchymatous pycnidia have never been recorded in these seven
species; hence the placements in section <italic>Phoma</italic>
.</p>
<p><italic>Phoma multipora</italic>
was ascribed to section <italic>Phoma</italic>
. However,
the original morphological description mentions the presence of elongated
conidiophores (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref160">Pawar <italic>et al.</italic>
1967</xref>
), which indicates that this species does not belong to the
genus <italic>Phoma</italic>
according to the present-day concept.</p>
<p>In addition, some representatives of other sections are found in clade 7,
such as <italic>Ph. incompta</italic>
(section <italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
) and <italic>Ph.
violicola</italic>
, which is associated with the section <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
.
Based on previous studies in the section <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
however, also
<italic>Ph. chrysanthemicola</italic>
and <italic>Ph. schachtii</italic>
may be expected to
cluster with the species in this clade
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al</italic>
.
2009a</xref>
). Remarkably, also two representatives of the section
<italic>Heterospora</italic>
are found in this clade. <italic>Phoma heteromorphospora</italic>
is the assigned type species of this section
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
1997</xref>
), whereas <italic>Ph. dimorphospora</italic>
is morphologically
closely allied, in congruence with the molecular results obtained here. Both
species have a slow growth-rate and occur on <italic>Chenopodium</italic>
spp., but
can be distinguished by the absence of the conidial dimorphism in <italic>Ph.
dimorphospora in vitro</italic>
. Moreover, the latter species is commonly found in
North and South America, whilst <italic>Ph. heteromorphospora</italic>
occurs mainly
in Europe (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al</italic>
.
2004</xref>
).</p>
<p>With the exception of <italic>Ph. samarorum</italic>
(clade 6 –
<italic>Phaeosphaeriaceae</italic>
), the other species of the section
<italic>Heterospora</italic>
are found in clade 8, which represents the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. The major difference between the <italic>Heterospora</italic>
species in the present clade in contrast to those in the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
is the size of the septate conidia, which are up to 9
× larger <italic>in vivo</italic>
than the regular conidia in <italic>Ph.
heteromorphospora</italic>
and <italic>Ph. dimorphospora</italic>
, whereas, in the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
clade, the septate conidia are only 1.5–4.5
× larger.</p>
<p>Also, <italic>Coniothyrium palmarum</italic>
, which represents the type of its
genus, clusters in this clade. Just as in <italic>Phoma</italic>
, the species in
<italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
have only a limited number of morphological features
that can aid in taxonomy. This has led to an unwanted situation in which
species morphologically placed in this genus have been shown in phylogenetic
examination to be dispersed among multiple families
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref228">Verkley <italic>et al</italic>
.
2004</xref>
). Although, based on type species, an anamorph-teleomorph
link has been established between <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
and
<italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref71">Crous
1998</xref>
), many heterogeneous species are <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
-like,
and belong phylogenetically to different families or even classes
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref70">Cortinas <italic>et al</italic>
.
2006</xref>
). In this study we found “<italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
”
species accommodated in at least three different clades
(<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Fig. 1</xref>
). <italic>Coniothyrium
clematidis-rectae</italic>
is phylogenetically linked to the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
(<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Fig. 2</xref>
– see below). <italic>Phoma</italic>
and <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
are considered to
be highly similar and are only distinguished on basis of the pigmentation of
the conidia and the structure of the pycnidial wall
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al</italic>
.
2004</xref>
).</p>
<p>This clade also accommodates <italic>Pleospora betae</italic>
, a notorious leaf and
seed pathogen of beet (<italic>Beta vulgaris</italic>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref61">Bugbee & Cole 1981</xref>
), and
<italic>Pl. herbarum</italic>
, which is the type species of the genus
<italic>Pleospora</italic>
. The genetic distance between the two species was already
observed in a study utilising SSU nrDNA sequences
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref82">Dong <italic>et al</italic>
. 1998</xref>
).
Also three <italic>Phoma</italic>
species that are found in close association with
these “true” <italic>Pleosporaceae</italic>
and that are found basal to
this clade, <italic>Ph. fallens, Ph. flavigena</italic>
and <italic>Ph. glaucispora</italic>
have glabrous pycnidia and, like <italic>Ph. betae</italic>
, aseptate conidia, hence
their link to <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Phoma</italic>
. Absence of an ostiole is
only recorded in <italic>Ph. glaucispora</italic>

<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
clade. This clade is well supported (BPP = 0.99, RBS =

within the clade. The ancestral species in this clade are the
<italic>Graminae</italic>
-pathogens, <italic>Ascochyta hordei</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
paspali</italic>
. The latter species has been considered to be an indigenous
pathogen of grasses in Australia and New Zealand

, the
representative strain of <italic>Ph. herbarum</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al</italic>

2004</xref>
), which is type species of the genus
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref29">Boerema 1964</xref>
). This clade
also includes the type species of the <italic>Phoma</italic>
sections <italic>Phoma,
Peyronellaea, Phyllostictoides, Sclerophomella</italic>
and <italic>Macrospora</italic>
.
Some phytopathologically and medically relevant species of the section
<italic>Heterospora</italic>
are also associated with this clade, although some
species of this section are found in other clades, such as <italic>Ph.
samarorum</italic>
(clade 6) and <italic>Ph. dimorphospora,</italic>
and the sectional
type <italic>Ph. heteromorphospora</italic>
(clade 7). Finally, a single species of
the setose section <italic>Paraphoma, Ph. gardeniae</italic>
, is found in the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. Based on the sequence data obtained in this study, it
is estimated that approximately 70 % of the species recognised by Boerema
<italic>et al</italic>
. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
) can be
associated with the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
.</p>
<p>Besides the many <italic>Phoma</italic>
species, several other anamorph fungi are
found within this clade, including <italic>Ampelomyces quercinus, Ascochyta
fabae</italic>
(teleom<italic>. Didymella fabae</italic>
), <italic>Asc. hordei</italic>
var.<italic> hordei, Asc. pinodes</italic>
(teleom<italic>. Didymella pinodes</italic>
),
<italic>Chaetasbolisia erysiphoides, Didymella exigua, Epicoccum nigrum</italic>
(synanamorph <italic>Ph. epicoccina</italic>
) and <italic>Microsphaeropsis olivacea</italic>
.
Of these species, <italic>Asc. pisi, C. erysiphoides</italic>
and <italic>M. olivacea</italic>
are recognised as type species for their respective genera. De Gruyter <italic>et
al</italic>
. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
) already
discussed the probability of finding most of these non-<italic>Phoma</italic>
taxa in
the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
clade.</p>
<p>It should be noted that not all <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
species are found within
this clade, indicating that this genus is also polyphyletic. Whereas <italic>A.
hordei</italic>
var. <italic>hordei</italic>
is found to be one of the basal taxa of clade
8, the legume associated pathogens <italic>A. fabae, A. pinodes</italic>
and the type
species <italic>A. pisi</italic>
are found in close association with several species
of <italic>Phoma</italic>
. This result is in congruence with the observations in the
study of Peever <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref163">2007</xref>
). Also the recently
described <italic>Didymella clematidis</italic>
has an anamorph state in
<italic>Ascochyta</italic>
and is closely related to <italic>Phoma</italic>
taxa in this major
clade (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref239">Woudenberg <italic>et al</italic>
.
2009</xref>
). A representative strain <italic>Asc. caulina</italic>
and a new
<italic>Ascochyta</italic>
species that is still due to be published (G.J.M. Verkley,
pers. comm.), however, have been found to be only distantly related and are
found in clades 7 and 6, respectively.</p>
<p>Where a sexual state is known for the <italic>Phoma</italic>
and <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
species in clade 8, it is <italic>Didymella</italic>
. The type species of this
teleomorph genus, <italic>D. exigua</italic>
, is also found within this clade,
although it is not associated with a <italic>Phoma</italic>
anamorph state. The family
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
was introduced for this group by De Gruyter <italic>et
al</italic>
. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
). However,
type species of two other teleomorph genera have also been found within this
clade. DNA sequences of <italic>Leptosphaerulina australensis</italic>
resemble a high
level of similarity with those of the various <italic>Phoma</italic>
and
<italic>Didymella</italic>
strains, although none are identical. Also sequences of LSU
and ITS sequence data obtained from GenBank of <italic>L. americana, L.
argentinensis, L. chartarum, L. crassiasca</italic>
and <italic>L. trifolii</italic>
(GenBank accession no. AY278318, AY849949, EU272493, U79485, AY8315585
respectively) were highly similar or even identical to the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
sequences obtained in the present study (data not
shown). These observations are in congruence with the results obtained by
Silva-Hanlin & Hanlin
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref203">1999</xref>
), who found that <italic>D.
bryoniae</italic>
(anam. <italic>Ph. cucurbitacearum</italic>
) was closely related with
<italic>L. chartarum</italic>
and <italic>L. crassiasca</italic>
. Also <italic>Macroventuria
anomochaeta</italic>
, which represents the genus <italic>Macroventuria</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref1">Van der Aa 1971</xref>
) groups in
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. The close genetical resemblance of
<italic>Macroventuria</italic>
and <italic>Leptosphaerulina</italic>
found in the present
study is in congruence with the results of Kodsueb <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref126">2006</xref>
).</p>
<p>The loci employed here for phylogenetic analysis are sufficient to identify
clades at the family level, but for proper resolution at generic level or
lower, additional gene regions need to be sequenced. As the majority of
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species is embedded in the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
clade, we
will define further generic and species boundaries within this recently
established family in the subsequent part of this paper.</p>

<p>The alignment that was used to delineate the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
consisted of 274 sequences belonging to 196 species. A list of the species
names and numbers, original substrates, geographical origins and GenBank
Accession numbers of the strains used in this study is provided in
<xref ref-type="table" rid="tbl3">Table 3</xref>
. The sequence matrix
had a total length of 2 188 characters including the alignment gaps (LSU: 1
327; ITS: 508 and TUB: 353). Of those characters, 1 788 (LSU: 1 233; ITS: 374
and TUB: 181) were constant, whereas 400 characters (LSU: 94; ITS: 144 and
TUB: 192) were variable.</p>
<p>The analysis run of the LSU-ITS-TUB sequence matrix in MrBayes was aborted
after obtaining 20 000 trees, which was well after stationarity in the
probability of the trees was reached, whereas the standard deviation of split
frequencies was below 0.02. From the obtained tree population, the 25 %
burn-in was discarded and the consensus tree and posterior probabilities were
calculated. The topology and support values of the BI tree were in congruence
with the optimal tree obtained in the ML analysis.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Systematics: treatment of clades</title>
<p>As most other anamorph genera, <italic>Phoma</italic>
has largely been used as a
convenient form genus, rather than a phylogenetic entity. With the number of
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species that are being analysed on DNA sequence level rapidly
increasing, the question is raised whether form genera should be maintained or
that more natural groupings, merging both phylogeny and morphological data,
should be erected. Of course, as greater numbers of taxa are collected and
analysed, the taxonomic boundaries of more clades will be resolved. However,
for the present, only those genera that could be resolved based on available
cultures are treated. The groups mentioned below refer to those indicated
A–R in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Fig. 2</xref>
. The
unresolved clades are left untreated, and are thus not discussed.</p>
<p>The taxa in this part of the study were selected based on genetic and/or
morphological similarities with the species that were associated with the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Fig.
1</xref>
. Although numerous taxa from various genera have been associated
with “<italic>Phoma</italic>
”, the number of genera that could be included
in the selection for the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
was limited. Next to
<italic>Phoma</italic>
, the only species found were those accommodated on basis of
previous morphological studies in either <italic>Ampelomyces, Ascochyta,
Chaetasbolisia, Coniothyrium, Didymella, Diplodina, Dothiorella, Epicoccum,
Leptosphaerulina, Macroventuria</italic>
, or <italic>Microsphaeropsis</italic>
. Of three
of these generic representatives, viz. <italic>Chaetasbolisia, Diplodina</italic>
and
<italic>Dothiorella</italic>
, we suspect that some cultures have been preserved under
an incorrect name. The species representing <italic>Ampelomyces, A.
quercinus,</italic>
was correctly identified, but as suggested earlier, the
taxonomic placement in this genus appears to be incorrect
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref221">Szentiványi <italic>et al.</italic>
2005</xref>
).</p>
<p>Strains belonging to a single species proved to be genetically identical or
at least highly similar, indicating that the initial identification of these
strains had been carried out correctly.</p>
<p>Several well-supported clusters are recognised within this family that are
treated here as novel groups of the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. In this section
these separate groups are treated. However, although multiple genes were
employed in this study to generate a phylogenetic reconstruction of the
family, high levels of basal polytomy were observed as well
(<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Fig. 2</xref>
). Application of
general nrDNA loci alone did not reduce this high level of polytomy, whilst
interspecies variation in several well-supported clades was reduced
drastically.</p>
<sec><title>Group A – outgroup and basal lineages:</title>
<p>The tree presented in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Fig. 2</xref>
is rooted to <italic>Ascochyta hordei</italic>
and <italic>Ph. paspali</italic>
, which proved
to be ancestral to the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
in
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Fig. 1</xref>
. The latter species was
described by Johnston (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref119">1981</xref>
)
as a species from grasses in New Zealand and Australia, but in recent years,
isolates with similar genotypes were isolated from iron-rich volcanic soil
from France (C. Gueidan, pers. comm.), and from common reed (<italic>Phragmites
australis</italic>
) in Germany (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref237">Wirsel <italic>et
al.</italic>
2001</xref>
). These isolates were, however, never studied
morphologically.</p>
<p>Another species used as outgroup is <italic>Ascochyta hordei</italic>
var.
<italic>hordei</italic>
(<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.studiesinmycology.org/cgi/external_ref?access_num=544.74&link_type=cbs">CBS

), which was obtained from a South African <italic>Triticum
aestivum</italic>
, indicating that also within the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
, species
that are ascribed to <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
do not form a monophyletic group. Also

, the
isotype of <italic>Ph. matteuciicola</italic>
, proved to be basal to most other
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species. <italic>Phoma matteuciicola</italic>
is commonly known as a
pathogen of many fern species (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref99">De Gruyter
<italic>et al.</italic>
2002</xref>
). Within the basal lineages, also a group
comprising <italic>Ph. humicola</italic>
and the novel species <italic>Ph. saxea</italic>
is
found, although this group is only supported by BI analysis (BPP = 0.92, RBS
< 50 %). Although <italic>Phoma humicola</italic>
is known as a saprobic soil
fungus, it is sometimes mistaken for the notorious potato pathogen <italic>Ph.
foveata</italic>
(Group N), due to a similar biochemical reaction to NaOH and the
formation of citrine green crystals on MEA
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref98">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
1998</xref>
). However, conidia of <italic>Ph. humicola</italic>
are always
eguttulate in contrast to those of <italic>Ph. foveata. Phoma saxea</italic>
has been
found twice in Germany on rock material, and will be further described

<sec><title>Group C:</title>
<p>The species in Group C cluster in two subgroups: One comprising the
<italic>Clematis</italic>
pathogens <italic>Ph. clematidina</italic>
and <italic>Coniothyrium
clematidis-rectae</italic>
, the other subgroup comprising <italic>Ph.
aquilegiicola</italic>
and <italic>Ph. glaucii</italic>
, two pathogens of
<italic>Ranunculaceae</italic>
and <italic>Papaveraceae,</italic>
respectively. All three
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species in this group were morphologically linked to the
section <italic>Heterospora</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">Boerema
<italic>et al.</italic>
1997</xref>
), but are distinct from the species in clade
S by the absence of conidia that represent the <italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
synanamorph in culture, although smaller septate conidia do occur. In these
species the <italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
synanamorph is only known from <italic>in
vivo</italic>
material (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref33">Boerema
1993</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">Boerema <italic>et al</italic>
.
1997</xref>
).</p>
<p>The several species that were associated with the <italic>Ph. clematidina</italic>
morphotype have recently been distinguished in a study of Woudenberg <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref239">2009</xref>
). In the same
study, the authors showed that <italic>C. clematidis-rectae</italic>
is closely
related and, based on sequence analysis, a member of the family
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. The major character on which this species is regarded
as distinct from <italic>Ph. clematidina</italic>
is by the production of pale brown
pigmented conidia. In addition, the conidiogenesis of <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
is
annellidic with percurrent proliferation, in contrast to the conidiogenesis in
<italic>Phoma</italic>
, which is considered to be solely phialidic with periclinal
thickening (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref36">Boerema & Bollen
1975</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">Sutton
1980</xref>
). Evidence for the presence of annellides has, however, not
been observed in <italic>C. clematidis-rectae</italic>
, while conidial pigmentation is
relatively pale in comparison to other <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
species.
Pigmented conidia have also been observed in various <italic>Phoma</italic>
species
before (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref83">Dorenbosch 1970</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
). These features may indicate that this species is actually
a <italic>Phoma</italic>
with early conidial pigmentation. Therefore <italic>C.
clematidis-rectae</italic>
is recombined into <italic>Phoma</italic>
below.</p>

<p><italic>Notes</italic>
: In congruence with the studies of Woudenberg <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref239">2009</xref>
), this species
was found to be closely related to <italic>Ph. clematidina</italic>
and other
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
species. In contrast, it is only distantly related to
the type species of <italic>Coniothyrium, C. palmarum</italic>
. Therefore, a
recombination into <italic>Phoma</italic>
is proposed here. The present species is
clearly distinct from <italic>Ph. clematidina</italic>
by the production of pigmented
conidia, although the level of pigmentation is low, which distinguishes
<italic>Ph. clematidis-rectae</italic>
from the species remaining in
<italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
that produce darker, olivaceous conidia.</p>

<sec><title>Groups D & E – Leptosphaerulina and Macroventuria:</title>
<p>The most remarkable findings in the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
are the
<italic>Leptosphaerulina</italic>
and <italic>Macroventuria</italic>
(clade E) teleomorph
genera. The species belonging to these teleomorphs are found amidst the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
, causing the genus <italic>Didymella</italic>
to be
paraphyletic. The species in both genera are closely related to each other, as
was already pointed out by Kodsueb <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref126">2006</xref>
), who, however, missed
the link with <italic>Didymella</italic>
. A phomoid anamorph state has, thus far, not
been recorded for any of the species in these teleomorph genera.</p>
<p><italic>Leptosphaerulina</italic>
is morphologically distinct from
<italic>Macroventuria</italic>
and <italic>Didymella</italic>
, although all three genera are
known for their hyaline ascospores (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref1">Van der
Aa 1971</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref14">Von Arx
1981</xref>
). <italic>Leptosphaerulina</italic>
produces large, longitudinally
and transversally septated ascospores, resembling those of <italic>Pleospora</italic>
and <italic>Cucurbitaria</italic>
, although the ascospores of these genera are
pigmented. The major difference between <italic>Didymella</italic>
and
<italic>Macroventuria</italic>
is the presence of setae on the pseudothecia of the
latter genus, whereas <italic>Didymella</italic>
ascomata are commonly glabrous.
According to the original description (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref1">Van
der Aa 1971</xref>
), <italic>Macroventuria</italic>
strains resemble
<italic>Venturia</italic>
by their setose pycnidia, but differ in their restricted
number of the asci.</p>

<p>As a sister group to <italic>Leptosphaerulina</italic>

species are found that induce leaf spots on a variety of plant
species, including <italic>Ph. infossa, Ph. anigozanthi, Ph.

and <italic>Ph. gossypiicola</italic>
. The latter species
causes leaf spots and stem canker on cotton plants (<italic>Gossypium</italic>

However, other plant species may also become symptomatic when deliberately
infected (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref110">Holliday & Punithalingam

synonym
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref94">De Gruyter 2002</xref>
).</p>
<p>In contrast to these plant pathogens, a fungicolous species also occurs in
the present clade. Species from the genera <italic>Phoma</italic>
and
<italic>Ampelomyces</italic>
have been “frequently confused with each
other” (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref214">Sullivan & White
2000</xref>
), which explains why <italic>Ph. fungicola</italic>
is found here.
This species was previously known as <italic>Amp. quercinus</italic>
and is recombined
in the subsequent taxonomical section. The finding of this species in the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
is in congruence with sequence results obtained by
Sullivan & White (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref214">2000</xref>
)
and Szentiványi <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref221">2005</xref>
). Also <italic>Amp.
humuli</italic>
, another fast-growing species, proved to be phylogenetically
similar to species that currently represent the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref124">Kiss & Nakasone 1998</xref>
).
Additionally, it has been suggested that the fast growing species <italic>Amp.
artemisiae</italic>
and <italic>Amp. uncinulae</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref185">Rudakov 1979</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref123">Kiss 1997</xref>
) actually do, in
fact, not represent <italic>Ampelomyces</italic>
, but belong to the genus
<italic>Phoma</italic>
; these species were incorrectly identified based on their
host-association (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref125">Kiss <italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
). The species in <italic>Ampelomyces</italic>
are all recognised as
parasites of fungi that cause powdery mildew
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref123">Kiss 1997</xref>
). However, it is
suggested that also the ubiquitous species <italic>Ph. glomerata</italic>
has
fungicolous capacities, and may be suited as mycoparasitic control agent of
powdery mildew (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref214">Sullivan & White
2000</xref>
).</p>
<p>Only one of the <italic>Phoma</italic>
species embedded in this clade has been
associated with a teleomorph. In the description of <italic>Ph. anigozanthi</italic>
,
the sexual state is recorded as <italic>Sphaerella millepunctata</italic>
(apud
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref96">Gruyter & Noordeloos
1992</xref>
). <italic>Sphaerella</italic>
is practically synonymised with
<italic>Mycosphaerella</italic>
(<italic>e.g.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref11">Aptroot 2006</xref>
), but as
described above, several of the <italic>Mycosphaeralla</italic>
species have
subsequently been recombined into <italic>Didymella</italic>
. In the present study no
evidence of teleomorph formation <italic>in vitro</italic>
has been observed, which is
in congruence with the results of Gruyter & Noordeloos
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref96">1992</xref>
). As also type material
of <italic>Ph. anigozanthi</italic>
and <italic>S. multipunctata</italic>
could not be
obtained, this taxonomic link is still to be confirmed.</p>

covering the whole colony, floccose, smoke-grey to greenish olivaceous, white
near the centre of the colony; reverse olivaceous-black or bay. Agar colour
changes to bay due to diffusible pigments produced by the fungus. Colonies on

: <italic>Phoma pedeiae</italic>

several tropical ornamental pot plants in Dutch greenhouses. Only mild disease
symptoms were recorded from this species, and therefore the fungus was not

: Colonies on OA 45–50 mm diam after

covered by a low mat of floccose white to grey aerial mycelium, towards colony
margin the aerial mycelium is gradually becoming more felted and white;
reverse olivaceous buff to dark mouse-grey. Colonies on MEA 50–55 mm
diam after 7 d, margin regular. Immersed mycelium hyaline, amber or iron-grey.
Only sparsely small white tufts of whitish aerial mycelium are produced in
older cultures; reverse concolourous. Colonies on CHA 55–60 mm diam
after 7 d, margin regular. Immersed mycelium hyaline, honey to isabelline or
dark mouse-grey. Aerial mycelium more proliferent near colony margin initially
white, later developing to iron-grey with olivaceous-grey tinges; reverse
black, but hyaline near colony centre. Application of NaOH did not have any
effect. In older cultures white dendritic crystals are formed both in the
aerial mycelium and in immersed in the agar.</p>

<p><italic>Notes</italic>
: Although sufficient pycnidial primordia are formed on OA,
maturation of pycnidia is only incidentally observed <italic>in vitro</italic>
.
Therefore the characters of the pycnidia and the pycnidial wall described here
are based on only three samples. Formation of mature pycnidia can be induced
by addition of a sterilised stem piece of stinging nettle (<italic>Urtica
dioica</italic>
). The conidia that were described from <italic>in vivo</italic>
material
were obtained using this technique.</p>
<p>Several other <italic>Phoma</italic>
species are known from <italic>Opuntiae</italic>
,
including <italic>Ph. opuntiae</italic>
(<italic>Phoma sensu lato</italic>
) and <italic>Ph.
longicolla</italic>
sp. nov. (see below). The conidia of <italic>Ph. opuntiae</italic>
are, however, considerably smaller, measuring 2.5–3.5 ×
1–1.5 μm (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref96">De Gruyter &
Noordeloos 1992</xref>
), whereas the main difference with <italic>Ph.
longicolla</italic>
are the pycnidia, which are uniostiolate and significantly
larger in the latter species.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Group K – Peyronellaea:</title>
<p>This group (BPP = 1.00, RBS = 58 %) comprises many of the chlamydospore
forming species, including the majority of the species that were accommodated
in <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
(Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref43">1965a</xref>

). Also <italic>Ph.
glomerata</italic>
, type species of this section is accommodated here
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref34">Boerema 1997</xref>
). However, as
section, <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
has a polyphyletic nature
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
). <italic>Phoma chrysanthemicola, Ph. violicola</italic>
and the
recently established species <italic>Ph. schachtii</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
) have been found to be basal to the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
(<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Fig. 1</xref>
), whilst several
species producing botryoid chlamydospores, representing the genus
<italic>Epicoccum</italic>
as emended below, are clustered in group M. Also <italic>Ph.
infossa</italic>
and <italic>Ph. omnivirens</italic>
, which have proven to produce
dictyochlamydospores in culture (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp
<italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
), are not situated in this part of the
phylogenetic tree. <italic>Peyronellaea calidophila</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
microchlamydospora</italic>
reside in the basal lineages of this clade.</p>
<p>Also several <italic>Phoma</italic>
species that were not included in
<italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
in the Boeremaean taxonomical system, but that do
produce either uni- or multicellular chlamydospores, are included in this
clade. In <italic>Ph. gardeniae, Ph. narcissi</italic>
, and <italic>Ph. zeae-maydis</italic>
multicellular chlamydospores have been observed, whereas <italic>Ph. pinodella,
Ph. arachidicola</italic>
, and <italic>Ph. heteroderae</italic>
are species that form
unicellular chlamydospores. Several species in this clade, however, have never
been recorded to produce any unicellular or multicellular chlamydospores.
These species are <italic>Ph. alectorolophi, Ph. obtusa</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
protuberans</italic>
, which will be treated in a subsequent section of this
paragraph, and <italic>Ph. anserina, Ph. aurea, Ph. nigricans</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
eucalyptica</italic>
. However, two of these species, <italic>Ph. anserina</italic>
and
<italic>Ph. eucalyptica</italic>
are well-known for the formation of swollen cells and
anastomosis in culture (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref96">De Gruyter &
Noordeloos 1992</xref>
), which may be regarded as a precursor to
chlamydospore formation. The ancestral location of <italic>Ph. anserina</italic>
in
this clade may also be an indication that chlamydospore production has not
completely been developed yet in this group. The high posterior probabillity
for this group justifies the recognition of a separate genus in the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. Therefore the genus name <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
Goid.
is re-established, and the associated species are recombined into this genus
below.</p>
<p>The plurivorous species <italic>Ph. calorpreferens</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
heteroderae</italic>
share identical LSU, ITS and TUB genes. Also morphologically
the representative strains of these species are highly similar. A
synonymisation of these species is therefore proposed in this paper.</p>
<p>Another notable subgroup within this clade is a cluster formed by
<italic>Didymella pinodes, D. lethalis, D. arachidicola</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
pinodella</italic>
. Recently, Irinyi <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref117">2009</xref>
) synonymised <italic>Ph.
sojicola</italic>
with <italic>Ph. pinodella</italic>
, based on morphological observations
and sequence data of ITS, β-tubulin and translation elongation factor
1-α. This indicates that the notorious pathogen of green pea (<italic>Pisum
sativum</italic>
) is also capable of infecting soybean (<italic>Glycine max</italic>
).
These observations are supported by the results obtained in the present study.
As reported in previous studies
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref87">Faris-Mokaiesh <italic>et al.</italic>
1996</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref155">Onfroy <italic>et al.</italic>
1999</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref88">Fatehi <italic>et al.</italic>
2003</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref163">Peever <italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
), <italic>Ph. pinodella</italic>
appears to be very closely related
to <italic>D. pinodes</italic>
(anam. <italic>Ascochyta pinodes</italic>
) and because these
species share the same host range they are often confused. Both species can
however easily be differentiated on basis of the amount of septate conidia
formed <italic>in vitro</italic>
, abundantly in <italic>D. pinodes</italic>
, and in very small
numbers in <italic>Ph. pinodella</italic>
.</p>
<p>Because <italic>Ph. pinodella</italic>
is morphologically so similar to <italic>Ph.
medicaginis</italic>
, it was once regarded as a variety of this species by Boerema
<italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref44">1965b</xref>
). The
variety was elevated to species rank after careful observation
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref233">White & Morgan-Jones
1987</xref>
), but the varietal name is however currently still in common
use (<italic>e.g.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref155">Onfroy <italic>et al</italic>
.
1999</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref88">Fatehi <italic>et al</italic>
.
2003</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref223">Taylor & Ford
2007</xref>
). The results obtained in this study however, illustrate a
substantial phylogenetical distance to <italic>Ph. medicaginis</italic>
, and warrant
recognition at species level, in the in the re-instated genus
<italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
.</p>
<p>The close association of <italic>Ph. arachidicola</italic>
with <italic>Ph.
pinodella</italic>
and <italic>D. pinodes</italic>
is reflected by the morphology of these
species, which all produce, next to septate and aseptate conidia, also globose
to ellipsoidal unicellular chlamydospores, which may be formed in chains.
These chlamydospores measure 5–20 μm diam, which is somewhat larger
than the species in group N. The close relationship of these three species has
been hypothesised before, and was based on chemical analysis of the crystals
produced by these taxa (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref152">Noordeloos <italic>et
al.</italic>
1993</xref>
).</p>
<p><italic>Didymella arachidicola</italic>
is a specific pathogen of groundnut
(<italic>Arachis hypogaea</italic>
), another host plant of the family
<italic>Fabaceae</italic>
with which the other species in this subclade are also
associated.</p>
<p>In the <italic>Ph. pinodella</italic>
/ <italic>D. pinodes</italic>
subcluster (BPP = 1.00,
RBS = 94 %), four teleomorph species are found with a coelomycete anamorph
state. Next to <italic>D. pinodes</italic>
, these are <italic>D. alectorolophi, D.
arachidicola,</italic>
and <italic>D. lethalis</italic>
. A fifth teleomorph is the sexual
state of <italic>Ph. pinodella</italic>
(as <italic>Ph. medicaginis</italic>
var.
<italic>pinodella</italic>
) that is reported and described by Bowen <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref56">1997</xref>
), but that has not been
named thus far. From a phylogenetic point of view, this record is very
plausible as all species in the subclade in which <italic>Ph. pinodella</italic>
is
embedded, do form a <italic>Didymella</italic>
-like teleomorph
(<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Fig. 2</xref>
). However, as we did
not include mating type tests in our studies, and as the species is probably
heterothallic (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref56">Bowen <italic>et al.</italic>
1997</xref>
), pseudothecia were not observed in the present study. A
formal name for the teleomorph of <italic>Ph. pinodella</italic>
could therefore not
be proposed here either.</p>
<p>A fifth species in group K that has a known teleomorph is <italic>Ph.
zeae-maydis</italic>
. This species is however only distantly related to the four
species mentioned above. Nevertheless, it can be concluded that the sole
teleomorph genus that is associated with group K is <italic>Didymella</italic>
-like.
This would further support the suggestion
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref163">Peever <italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
)
that the teleomorph name for <italic>A. pinodes</italic>
that is often referred to by
plant pathologists, <italic>Mycosphaerella pinodes,</italic>
should be omitted.</p>
<p>Remarkably, three species are found in this clade that are identical based
on sequence analyses, but that are morphologically rather distinct. Also
sequence comparisons of parts of the actin and calmodulin genes did not reveal
any differences between those four strains (Aveskamp & Woudenberg, unpubl.
data). <italic>Phoma alectorolophi</italic>
and <italic>Ph. protuberans</italic>
are
associated with <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
1997</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref99">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
2002</xref>
), because of the thick-walled pycnidia formed in culture and
<italic>in vivo</italic>
. However, because of the production of relatively large
secondary conidia, a link with sections <italic>Heterospora</italic>
or
<italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
can also be advocated. Colony characters,
microscopic features and ecology indicate that the two species should actually
be rather distinct. A third taxon found in this group is <italic>Ph. obtusa</italic>
,
a saprobic species that has a thin pycnidial wall and lacks septate conidia.
Nevertheless, these three species are recovered in a clade in which solely
chlamydospore-forming species reside, a character that never has been recorded
in any of these taxa. The explanation of the contrast between the level of
genetic and morphological similarity will be one of the main challenges in
<italic>Phoma</italic>
taxonomy.</p>

<p><italic>Notes</italic>
: <italic>Peyronellaea calorpreferens</italic>
is a taxon that was
recently elevated from variety level to species rank, as <italic>Phoma
calorpreferens</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et
al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
). Due to its morphological and genetical similarity
with <italic>Ph. heteroderae</italic>
, it is concluded that both taxa are actually one
and the same species. According to the International code of Botanical
Nomenclature (McNeal <italic>et al.</italic>
2006) the epithet <italic>calorpreferens</italic>
has priority, as its basionym <italic>Ph. pomorum</italic>
var.
<italic>calorpreferens</italic>
was published earlier.</p>
<p>The type of <italic>Peyronellaea calorpreferens</italic>
has been recovered from
food materials, but Boerema
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref33">1993</xref>
) hypothesises about the
plurivorous nature of this taxon, and mainly records it as a worldwide
occurring soil- and seedborne opportunist, whereas Chen <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref64">1996</xref>
) record this species (as
<italic>Ph. heteroderae</italic>
) from eggs of a cyst nematode, <italic>Heterodera

<p><italic>Culture characteristics</italic>
: Colonies on OA 50–53 mm diam after
7 d, margin regular. Aerial mycelium sparse, tufted near the centre of the
colony, white. Immersed mycelium hyaline. Abundant pycnidia produced
semi-immersed in concentric rings. Pycnidia in the outer rings pale luteous,
darkening towards the centre of the colony via buff, honey, hazel to
brown-vinaceous; reverse concolourous. Colonies on MEA 59–63 mm diam
after 7 d, margin regular. Immersed mycelium completely covered by a mycelial
mat, which is densely floccose, greenish olivaceous to greenish grey, with
elements of citrine, olivaceous black and white; reverse concolourous. Hyphae
locally containing red amorphous chrystaline material. Colonies on CHA
62–67 mm diam after 7 d, margin regular. Aerial mycelium floccose,
white. Abundant dark pycnidia are formed on the agar surface. Application of
NaOH results in a luteous discolouration of the agar, later changing to
reddish, best to be observed on OA medium.</p>

production of botryoid or epicoccoid chlamydospores, in contrast to the
species in group K, which produce alternarioid dictyochlamydospores. The

<p><italic>Notes</italic>
: The strains that were previously accommodated in <italic>Ph.
sorghina</italic>
are morphologically and phylogenetically highly diverse
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref161">Pažoutová
2009</xref>
), and probably represent multiple species. These species
were, however, not treated in the present study.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Group N – Boeremia gen. nov.:</title>
<p>This group represents species that are morphologically similar to what is
currently known as <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
. Group N is a well-defined clade (BPP =
1.00, RBS = 100 %) and comprises all taxa that were previously recognised as
separate <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
varieties by Abeln <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref8">2002</xref>
). <italic>Phoma foveata</italic>
and <italic>Ph. sambuci-nigrae</italic>
are embedded here as well, two species that
previously were known as varieties of <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
, but were elevated
to species rank due to their phytopathological relevance (<italic>Ph.
foveata</italic>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref51">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
1987</xref>
) or distinct physiological characters (<italic>Ph.
sambuci-nigrae</italic>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref137">Monte <italic>et
al.</italic>
1991</xref>
). As already noted by Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">2009b</xref>
) also <italic>Ph. telephii,
Ph. strasseri</italic>
and <italic>Ph. lycopersici</italic>
are closely related. This
study also reveals the close relationship with <italic>Ph. tarda</italic>
, a pathogen
of coffee. <italic>Phoma hedericola</italic>
, a frequently occurring causal agent of
leaf spots on poison ivy (<italic>Hedera helix</italic>
) and <italic>Ph. crinicola</italic>
, a
pathogen of <italic>Amaryllidaceae</italic>
are embedded in this clade. In contrast to
the other species in this clade, which are linked to <italic>Phoma</italic>
section
<italic>Phyllostictoides, Ph. hedericola</italic>
and <italic>Ph. crinicola</italic>
are
associated with <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Phoma</italic>
, due to the absence of
septate conidia (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref96">De Gruyter &
Noordeloos 1992</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref97">De Gruyter
<italic>et al.</italic>
1993</xref>
). The sequence data of
<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.studiesinmycology.org/cgi/external_ref?access_num=172.34&link_type=cbs">CBS 172.34</ext-link>
, a
strain recorded as <italic>Dothiorella ulmi,</italic>
appeared to be genetically
identical to <italic>Ph. exigua,</italic>
as was already noted by De Gruyter <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
). Based on
morphological studies of other strains, <italic>Dothiorella ulmi</italic>
was
suggested to be recombined into <italic>Plectophomella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref179">Redfern & Sutton 1981</xref>
),
a genus that is linked to the Pezizomycotina. Morphological features of the
present strain appeared to be similar to <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
, suggesting that
this strain was probably preserved under an incorrect name, and actually
belongs to <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
var. <italic>populi</italic>
.</p>
<p>Of the species within this clade, a teleomorph is only named in <italic>Ph.
lycopersici</italic>
(<italic>Didymella lycopersici</italic>
), although Stewart
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref212">1957</xref>
) has reported the
existence of pseudothecia of <italic>Ph. tarda</italic>
in nature, a finding that also
has been reported by Salgado <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref190">2007</xref>
). This contradicts with
the fact that none of the varieties embedded in the <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
has
been found in association with a teleomorph thus far.</p>
<p>For further delineation of this clade, a comparison of actin gene sequences
is proposed (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp <italic>et al</italic>
.
2009b</xref>
), although not all species and varieties in this complex can
be recognised using this gene only. Thus far the varieties of <italic>Ph.
exigua</italic>
could only be delineated using two fingerprint techniques:
Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref8">Abeln <italic>et al.</italic>
2002</xref>
) and
DAF (DNA Amplification Fingerprinting) using mini-hairpin primers
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009b</xref>
). Based on this latter technique Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">2009b</xref>
) recognised two
varieties within <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
that had not been described before. These
two infraspecific taxa, var. <italic>gilvescens</italic>
and var.
<italic>pseudolilacis</italic>
are treated and described below.</p>
<p>Based on the phylogenetic reconstruction obtained here, the taxa previously
known as <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
var. <italic>noackiana</italic>
and <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
var. <italic>diversispora</italic>
cluster in a distinct clade from the other
varieties in this complex, and are elevated to species level here. Also actin
sequence data and DAF analysis (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp
<italic>et al</italic>
. 2009b</xref>
), AFLP data
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref8">Abeln <italic>et al.</italic>
2002</xref>
)
reveal a basal topology of these species compared to <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
.
Morphological data obtained by Van der Aa (2000) also suggest that these
species are not completely fitting in the <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
concept.</p>
<p>The species and varieties in this clade differ from other <italic>Phoma</italic>
taxa based on their ostiole morphology. In contrast to other species, which
have a smoothly lined ostiole, the taxa present in this clade have distinct
hyaline cells lining their ostiolar openings
(<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig8">Fig. 8A</xref>
). In addition, these
species, with the exception of <italic>Ph. hedericola</italic>
, produce septate
conidia in addition to the regular aseptate ones, although in general the
septate conidia are produced in smaller numbers in culture than on the host.
These conidia are mostly 1-septate, as only in <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
incidentally multiseptate conidia occur, and are often only slightly larger
than the regular aseptate ones (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig8">Fig.
8C</xref>
). Due to the morphological and genetic distinctiveness, we
propose a new generic name for the taxa in this clade.</p>

was
originally described from leaves of coffee plants (<italic>Coffea arabica</italic>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref212">Stewart 1957</xref>
) as
<italic>Ascochyta coffeae</italic>
and <italic>A. tarda</italic>
. The observed late
euseptation in this species proved to be a character common for <italic>Phoma</italic>
species accommodated in section <italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
, leading to a
recombination into <italic>Phoma</italic>
, as <italic>Ph. tarda</italic>
. Phylogenetic results
obtained in the present study reveal genetic similarity between the present
species and the <italic>B. exigua</italic>
species complex. The cultures of <italic>B.
exigua</italic>
varieties are somewhat slower growing than those of the present
species, which completely covers the agar surface (90 mm diam) within 7 d. The
pycnidia of <italic>B. exigua</italic>
var. <italic>tarda</italic>
may grown to up to 255
μm (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref99">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>

), but other micromorphological characters fit within the
scope of <italic>B. exigua</italic>
as described for Ph. exigua by Van der Aa <italic>et

(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref7">2000</xref>
) and De Gruyter
<italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref99">2002</xref>
). It is
concluded, therefore, that <italic>Ph. tarda</italic>
should be reduced to a variety
of the <italic>B. exigua</italic>
. Multiple <italic>Phoma</italic>
species have been found in
association with <italic>Coffea arabica</italic>

Ph. coffeicola, Ph. coffeiphila, Ph. costarricensis, Ph. excelsa</italic>

: Colonies on OA 75–80 mm diam after
7 d, margin regular or irregular. Immersed mycelium sparsely visible due to
coverage by the aerial mycelium, hyaline or black to greenish olivaceous, with
many pycnidia; reverse mouse-grey to olivaceous. Colonies on MEA 70–75
mm diam after 7 d, margin regular or irregular. Immersed mycelium completely
covered by a compact aerial mat, which is smoke-grey with some mouse-grey
zones; reverse black. Colonies on CHA at least (75–)80 mm diam after 7
d, but often the agar surface is completely covered, margin regular or
somewhat crenate. Immersed mycelium completely covered by a compact smoke-grey
mat of aerial mycelium, or, in some zones floccose, olivaceous with white
tufts; reverse shows a dendritic leaden-black zone around the colony centre,
with black zones near the colony border. Application of NaOH did not have any
effect.</p>
<p>Pycnidial and conidial shapes and sizes fit within the <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>

swollen cells occur in chains in the agar and in the aerial mycelium,

,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>

and molecular fingerprinting methods such as AFLP
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref8">Abeln <italic>et al.</italic>

and DAF (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>

). Additionally, <italic>B. noackiana</italic>
is characterised by a
relative fast growth rate on MEA: (6–)6.5–7.5 mm diam after 7 d,
and is further distinguished from <italic>B. diversispora</italic>
by its relatively
uniform conidia. Due to the relatively large genetical distance to the <italic>B.

<sec><title>Group O:</title>
<p>Three species are clustered in group O, which all were accommodated in the
Boeremaean section <italic>Phoma</italic>
. These species, <italic>Ph. multirostrata, Ph.
pereupyrena</italic>
and <italic>Ph. insulana</italic>
are characterised by the production
of small (5–15 μm diam), unicellular chlamydospores, comparable to
those formed by some species in group K. The absence of septate conidia and a
thin pycnidial wall are further characters of the species accommodated in
group O.</p>
<p>The strains accommodated in <italic>Ph. multirostrata</italic>
reveal a high
variation in spore size. Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(1986) introduced three
varieties within this species, but based on morphological observations and DNA
sequence analyses, these varieties were not recognised by later researchers
and thus the varieties were merged again

<sec><title>Group P:</title>
<p>This well-supported clade (BPP = 1.00, RBS = 97 %) comprises <italic>Ph.
dictamnicola</italic>
and <italic>Ph. sylvatica</italic>
, which are both associated with
the section <italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
(Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
1998). In
addition, both varieties of <italic>Ph. poolensis</italic>
are recovered here. As in
the <italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
species, an ostiole is commonly absent in <italic>Ph.
poolensis</italic>
var. <italic>poolensis</italic>
, a character which supports the
sequence data found in the present study. In contrast, the second variety of
this species, <italic>Ph. poolensis</italic>
var. <italic>verbascicola</italic>
, always
produces ostiolate pycnidia (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref97">De Gruyter
<italic>et al.</italic>
1993</xref>
). Both <italic>Ph. poolensis</italic>
varieties can
further be differentiated on the basis of the β-tubulin sequence, and are
morphologically distinguishable in the colour of the conidial matrix. The
conidia of the type variety are on average somewhat smaller, measuring
<italic>ca</italic>
. 3.5–5 × 1.5–2 μm, than those of var.
<italic>verbasicola</italic>
, which measure 3.5–5.5 × 1.5–2.5 μm.
Both varieties are known from plant hosts belonging to the
<italic>Scophulariaceae</italic>
, but whereas var. <italic>poolensis</italic>
is recorded as
causal agent of leaf spots and basal stem rot in snapdragon (<italic>Antirrhinum
majus</italic>
), var. <italic>verbascicola</italic>
is only known as saprobe of
<italic>Verbascum</italic>
spp., although inoculation trials indicated that it may
also have a role as pathogen (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema
<italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
). Given all these differences, it is
considered to be justified to erect a separate species for <italic>Ph.
poolensis</italic>
var. <italic>verbascicola</italic>
as <italic>Ph.
novae-verbascicola</italic>
.</p>
<p>Although none of the species in this group has been confirmed to have a
teleomorph (Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
1998), it has been suggested that
<italic>Didymella winteriana</italic>
is the teleomorph of <italic>Phoma sylvatica</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref144">Munk 1957</xref>
). Given the
topology of the tree, this association with a <italic>Didymella</italic>
species is
plausible, although a sexual structure was not observed in the present study,
nor in the previous studies of Boerema & De Gruyter
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref40">1998</xref>

<p><italic>Notes</italic>
: This species is distinguishable from <italic>Ph. poolensis</italic>
by to the presence of 1–2(–5) ostioles, the colourless to whitish
matrix and the smaller conidia. On MEA, the aerial mycelium is more compact or
woolly than that of <italic>Ph. poolensis</italic>
.</p>
<p>The variety epithet could not be elevated to species level, as <italic>Phoma
verbascicola</italic>
is already occupied. This basionym, however, probably refers
to immature pseudothecia of a <italic>Pleospora</italic>
species
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref53">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>

). Therefore, a new name is proposed here for the present
species.</p>

<p>The <italic>Phoma</italic>
species embedded in this group, <italic>Ph.
commelinicicola</italic>
and <italic>Ph. eupatorii</italic>
are morphologically distinct,
hence their accommodation in the sections <italic>Phoma</italic>
and
<italic>Macrospora</italic>
respectively. The accommodation of <italic>Chaetasbolisia
erysiphoides</italic>
in this clade, the type of its genus, is unexpected.
Attempted morphological studies revealed that this strain was sterile, and
therefore recombination of the species could not be supported by morphological
data. The descriptions provided in literature
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref219">Sutton 1980</xref>

suggest, however, that this genus could very well represent a group of setose
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species, although this cannot be resolved due to a lack of
isolates. The presence of setae is not recorded in other species in group Q,
and moreover, is within the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>

further explained by the morphology or ecology, nor by their geographical

<sec><title>Group R:</title>
<p>This group comprises five species that previously were accommodated in the
sections <italic>Phoma, Peyronellaea</italic>
and <italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
. As the
name of <italic>Ph. tropica</italic>
already suggests, it concerns a thermotolerant
species, which is mainly found in European greenhouses on a wide range of
hosts, but which probably has a tropical origin
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref192">Schneider & Boerema
1975</xref>
), as do most other species found in the present clade. The
sole host of <italic>Ph. costarricensis</italic>
is coffee bean (<italic>Coffea
arabica</italic>
), while <italic>Ph. piperis</italic>
is associated with Indian Long
Pepper (<italic>Piper longus</italic>
), and the novel species <italic>Ph. minor</italic>
has
been isolated twice from clove (<italic>Syzygium aromaticum</italic>
) in Indonesia. In
addition, <italic>Ph. labilis</italic>
is a warmth-preferring plurivorous species that
has been isolated in European greenhouses and from nature in the Middle East,
Turkey and Indonesia (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et
al.</italic>
2004</xref>
). <italic>Phoma zantedeschiae</italic>
is widespread
throughout the Western Hemisphere, but always in association with arum or
calla (<italic>Zantedeschia</italic>
sp.), a genus that is indigenous in southern
Africa (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref39">Boerema & Hamers
1990</xref>
). Thus far, however, no data of temperature-growth studies
are available for these species except for <italic>Ph. tropica</italic>
. Several other
thermotolerant species, such as <italic>Ph. calidophila, Ph. calorpreferens</italic>
and <italic>Ph. multirostrata</italic>
, are, however, not accommodated in this group.
These three species are soil-borne, in contrast to <italic>Ph. tropica</italic>
and
<italic>Ph. costarricensis</italic>
, which are associated with leaf-spots.</p>
<p><italic>Phoma tropica</italic>
and <italic>Ph. costarricensis</italic>
are both closely
related, and colony characters are highly similar. However, the strains
available revealed a significant difference in conidial and pycnidial sizes,
consistent with the data obtained in previous studies

section
<italic>Heterospora</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">Boerema <italic>et

<p>In contrast to the <italic>Heterospora</italic>
species that are absent in this
clade, several current <italic>Phoma</italic>
taxa recovered here have been associated
with the section <italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
, such as <italic>Ph. artemisiicola, Ph.
caricae-papayae, Ph. cucurbitacearum, Ph. heliopsidis, Ph. rudbeckiae</italic>

var. <italic>ligulicola</italic>

(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref94">De Gruyter

). These are all included in subclade S1 (BPP = 0.93, RBS = 73
%). These species do produce a percentage of multicellular conidia in culture
that are often considerably larger than the regular aseptate ones. However,
Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">1997</xref>
)
decided to exclude the <italic>Ph. ligulicola</italic>
varieties and <italic>Ph.
cucurbitacearum</italic>
from section <italic>Heterospora</italic>
, as the sizes of the
<italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
-like conidia do not always exceed that of the
aseptate conidia in these species. A sister clade to subclade S1 is S2, which
hosts the potato pathogens <italic>Ph. andigena</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
crystalliniformis</italic>
– formerly known as <italic>Ph. andina</italic>
var.
<italic>crystalliniformis</italic>
. Both species originate from the Andes region, and
are regarded as serious quarantine pathogens in large parts of the world
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref208">Smith <italic>et al</italic>

<p>In addition, three other subclades can be recognised in this clade. One
(S3) comprises the species <italic>Ph. schneiderae</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
subboltshauserii</italic>
(both of the section <italic>Heterospora</italic>
) as well as
<italic>Ph. astragali</italic>
. This species is known as a pathogen of
<italic>Astragalus</italic>
spp., and is characterised by a high percentage of
“distorted” conidia, but thus far, no records have been made of a
<italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
-like synanamorph. Whereas records of <italic>Ph.

and <italic>Ph. schneiderae</italic>
are mainly limited to the American

<italic>subboltshauseri</italic>
appears to occur worldwide on

(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>

are accommodated in section <italic>Phoma</italic>
, and therefore lack any further
features than a plain, globose pycnidium and aseptate, hyaline conidia. The
species found here are <italic>Ph. dorenboschiae, Ph. loticola</italic>
(both S4),
<italic>Ph. ajacis</italic>
and <italic>Ph. valerianellae</italic>
(both S5).</p>
<p>In group S several taxa have been found with a teleomorph in
<italic>Didymella</italic>
, such as <italic>Ph. ligulicola</italic>
var. <italic>ligulicola</italic>
(teleomorph <italic>D. ligulicola</italic>
var. <italic>ligulicola</italic>
), <italic>Ph.
ligulicola</italic>
var. <italic>inoxydabilis</italic>
(<italic>D. ligulicola</italic>
var.
<italic>inoxydabilis</italic>
), and <italic>Ph. cucurbitacearum</italic>
(<italic>D.
bryoniae</italic>
). Also the teleomorph of <italic>Ph. caricae-papayae</italic>
has been
recovered in this study, and found to be a <italic>Didymella</italic>
, which is in
line with the other teleomorph observations in this clade. The current
teleomorph state of this species is accommodated in <italic>Mycosphaerella</italic>
as
<italic>M. caricae</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref207">Sivanesan
1990</xref>
).</p>
<p>As the species in the present clade form a well-defined group within the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
, the taxa are recombined into the genus
<italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
. This further implies that the names of the
<italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
synanamorphs of <italic>Ph. samarorum</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
narcissi</italic>
(<italic>S. fraxini</italic>

<p><italic>Notes</italic>
: <italic>Phoma caricae-papayae</italic>
has been associated with an
undescribed teleomorph state in <italic>Mycosphaerella</italic>
or <italic>Didymella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
). Sivanesan
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref207">1990</xref>
) synonymised <italic>Ph.
caricae</italic>
with <italic>M. caricae</italic>
, apparently not noting that <italic>Ph.
caricae</italic>
already was synonymised with <italic>Ph. caricae-papayae</italic>
by
Punithalingam (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref171">1980</xref>
). As
<italic>Mycosphaerella</italic>
is phylogenetically unrelated to <italic>Phoma</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
), this taxonomic association is unlikely, and the observed
sexual state observed was probably <italic>Didymella</italic>
-like.</p>
<p>This species has solely been associated with pawpaw (<italic>Carica papaya,
Caricaceae</italic>
), but a single strain, deposited at CBS as <italic>D. exigua</italic>
and that was isolated from <italic>Brassica</italic>
leaves from Java, Indonesia
(<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.studiesinmycology.org/cgi/external_ref?access_num=282.76&link_type=cbs">CBS 282.76</ext-link>
), was
genetically identical to the reference strain of <italic>Ph. caricae-papayae</italic>
.
Herbarium material of this strain consisted of an inoculated lupine stem on
cornmeal agar (CBS H-11960) and represented a conidial state similar to this
of <italic>Ph. caricae-papayae</italic>
. This indicated that probably the
<italic>Didymella</italic>
teleomorph had been observed, but that it was preserved
under an incorrect name as it was only distantly related to the ex-type strain
of <italic>Didymella exigua</italic>
(<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.studiesinmycology.org/cgi/external_ref?access_num=183.55&link_type=cbs">CBS 183.55</ext-link>

finding provides evidence that <italic>S. caricae</italic>
is not restricted to
pawpaw.</p>

<p><italic>Notes</italic>
: <italic>Stagonosporopsis oculo-hominis</italic>
is a species that
thus far has been reported only once in a clinical case in Tennessee, U.S.A.,
when it was isolated from a man's corneal ulcer
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref168">Punithalingam 1976</xref>
). Due to
morphological similarities it has been recombined into a variety of <italic>Ph.
dennisii</italic>
by Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">1997</xref>
), but the genetical data
presented here suggest that this entity should be recognised at species level
in <italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
. It is distinguishable from <italic>S. dennisii</italic>
by the absence of a diffusible pigment in the agar, and by the absence of a
discolouration after application of NaOH to the culture. Further, the septate
conidia are significantly smaller than those of <italic>S. dennisii</italic>
:
9–16 × 4.5 μm versus 14.5–24 × 4–7 μm,
respectively.</p>

loci used, these species could not be assigned. These species are

<sec><title>DISCUSSION</title>
<sec><title>What is <italic>Phoma</italic>
?</title>
<p>According to the generic concept which is applied today, species of
<italic>Phoma</italic>
are relatively simple coelomycetes that are characterised by
the <italic>in vitro</italic>
production of mainly unicellular, hyaline conidia from
monophialidic, doliiform to flask-shaped conidiogenous cells in pycnidial
conidiomata (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref36">Boerema & Bollen
1975</xref>
).</p>
<p>Many species that currently are accommodated in sections <italic>Paraphoma,
Pilosa</italic>
and <italic>Plenodomus</italic>
are phylogenetically basal to the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
, in which most other <italic>Phoma</italic>
taxa, including the
type species are accommodated. These results support the work of Reddy <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref178">1998</xref>
), who
advocated that the genus <italic>Plenodomus</italic>
should be reinstalled as a
separate genus. Torres <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref226">2005b</xref>
) subsequently made a
novel description in this genus, <italic>Pl. morganjonesii</italic>
. A paper by De
Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
is in preparation, in which all species of
<italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Plenodomus</italic>
recognised by Boerema <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref52">1994</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref53">1996</xref>
) and Boerema & De
Gruyter (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref41">1999</xref>
), will be
taxonomically revised.</p>
<p>However, in the present study, it has become clear that the phylogenetic
boundaries between <italic>Phoma</italic>
and several closely related genera that are
defined on their conidial characters are ambiguous. Species that produce
consistently two-celled hyaline conidia classified therefore traditionally in
the genus <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
appear to have evolved independently multiple
times during evolution together with typical <italic>Phoma</italic>
taxa, in several
lineages of the pleosporalean tree (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Fig.
1</xref>
). Also other conidial characters, such as the pigmentation of
spores, as formed by <italic>Phoma clematidis-rectae</italic>
(formerly in
<italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
) and <italic>Microsphaeropsis olivacea,</italic>
appear not to
be reliable for the delimitation of the genus <italic>Phoma</italic>
. Thus, based on
the trees presented in this study, it can be concluded that <italic>Phoma</italic>
, as
defined by Saccardo (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref187">1880</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref188">1884</xref>
) and emended by Boerema
& Bollen (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref36">1975</xref>
) is highly
polyphyletic.</p>
<p>The close relation of <italic>Phoma</italic>
with <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
has often been
observed before, as strains of both genera are often highly similar in
morphology (Wollenweber & Hochapfel 1937,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref57">Brewer & Boerema 1965</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref36">Boerema & Bollen 1975</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref34">Boerema 1997</xref>
), physiology
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref152">Noordeloos <italic>et al.</italic>
1993</xref>
, Faris-Mokaiesh <italic>et al.</italic>
1995), pathogenicity
(Mendes-Perreira <italic>et al.</italic>
1999,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref80">Davidson <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
)
and nucleotide sequences (Faris-Mokaiesh <italic>et al.</italic>
1995,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref88">Fatehi <italic>et al.</italic>
2003</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref193">Schoch <italic>et al.</italic>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref163">Peever <italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref66">Chilvers <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). In the Saccardoan system, both genera were only
distinguished by the presence or absence of conidial septa, and by the type of
substrate: <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
species were considered to be specific
leaf-pathogens, whereas <italic>Phoma</italic>
was solely associated with stem lesions
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref36">Boerema & Bollen
1975</xref>
).</p>
<p>Brewer & Boerema (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref57">1965</xref>
)
contrasted the septation process of the conidia in <italic>Ascochyta pisi</italic>
to
this process in <italic>Phoma exigua</italic>
. These authors suggested that in
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species euseptation occurs only after secession, whereas in
<italic>Ascochyta</italic>
the septation of the spores was considered to be an
elemental part of conidiogenesis. Later, this was determined to be a
genus-specific character (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref31">Boerema
1970</xref>
). Additionally, Boerema and Bollen
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref36">1975</xref>
) stated that both genera
are distinct in conidiogenesis. According to these authors, the
<italic>Ascochyta</italic>
species produce conidia from either an accumulation of
annelations, which give the conidigenous cell an annelidic appearance, or from
a gradually thickening collar of periclinal annelations. In contrast,
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species produce true phialides with a collarette. This
micromorphological difference of the conidiogenesis can only be observed using
electron microscopy, as the appearance of a <italic>Phoma</italic>
collarette is
highly similar to the periclinal thickening of <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
species.
This observation is however not consistent with the conidial ontogeny of
<italic>Ph. fumosa</italic>
, which was observed to be annellidic by Sutton &
Sandhu (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref220">1969</xref>
).</p>
<p>The application of these characters for the purpose of generic delimitation
was heavily questioned (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref169">Punithalingam
1979a</xref>
), and nowadays these characters are hardly applied in the
taxonomy of both genera, simply because the use of electron microscopy is
expensive and sectioning of pycnidia is too time consuming. Due to this
unclear classification system, and to the fact that not all species produce
exclusively septate or aseptate conidia, species had synonyms in both genera
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref32">Boerema 1972</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref37">Boerema & Dorenbosch 1973</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref7">Van der Aa <italic>et al.</italic>
2000</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref134">Mel'nik
2000</xref>
). Even nowadays the status of many species is unclear as
<italic>Phoma</italic>
and <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
synonyms are often used simultaneously.
Examples are <italic>Ph. rabiei</italic>
and its synonym <italic>A. rabiei</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref205">Singh & Reddy 1993</xref>

2006</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref163">Peever <italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
), and <italic>Ph. gossypiicola</italic>
and its synonym, <italic>A.
gossypii</italic>
(<italic>e.g.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref200">Shen <italic>et
al.</italic>
2005</xref>
). The concept of <italic>Ph. clematidina</italic>
has
appeared to comprise several taxa belonging in multiple genera, amongst which
a <italic>Didymella</italic>
with an unnamed <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
anamorph
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref239">Woudenberg <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
).</p>
<p>The results presented in this study further suggest a close relation
between <italic>Microsphaeropsis</italic>
and <italic>Phoma</italic>
. Morphological studies of
members of both genera (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref121">Jones
1976</xref>
) reveal that conidiogenesis is similar, although the conidia
of <italic>Microsphaeropsis</italic>
differ from those of <italic>Phoma</italic>
by the dark
pigmentation and the presence of a double-layered cell wall. The pigmentation
occurs only after conidial secession. Therefore, young pycnidia with
colourless pycnidia may be easily confused with a <italic>Phoma</italic>
species
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al</italic>
.
2004</xref>
).</p>
<p>In general, it can be concluded that <italic>Phoma</italic>
should only be regarded
as a general concept, as members sharing this morphology are found throughout
the <italic>Pleosporales</italic>
, although most members are found in the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. The type species of <italic>Phoma</italic>
is only distantly
related to the other members of this genus, but relatively close to
<italic>Ascochyta pisi</italic>
, the type species of the older name
<italic>Ascochyta</italic>
. However, based on the results observed in the present
study, this genus is poorly elucidated. Therefore, we opt to retain the
taxonomy of <italic>Phoma</italic>
as is, with the exception of the groups that can be
resolved further, such as <italic>Boeremia, Epicoccum, Peyronellaea</italic>
and
<italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Taxonomic revisions</title>
<p>The observations presented in the present paper suggest that LSU and SSU
data, which contain approximately 270 informative sites in the alignment, are
sufficient to distinguish various major groups in the <italic>Pleosporales</italic>
.
However, other, more variable loci should also be analysed to determine the
phylogenetical basis for the species that are congeneric with the ex-type
strain of <italic>Phoma</italic>
. These species were found throughout the
pleosporalean phylogeny that was reconstructed in the present paper. Molecular
studies on the species that are currently accommodated in the section
<italic>Plenodomus</italic>
and <italic>Pilosa</italic>
are in progress (De Gruyter <italic>et
al.</italic>
in prep.).</p>
<p>The type species of the genus <italic>Phoma, Ph. herbarum,</italic>
resides in the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
clade, a result that is in congruence with the
observations of De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
). However, based on the
data generated in the present study, also the type species of
<italic>Ascochyta</italic>
(<italic>A. pisi</italic>
), <italic>Chaetasbolisia</italic>
(<italic>C.
erysiphoides</italic>
), and <italic>Microsphaeropis</italic>
(<italic>M. olivaceae</italic>
) are
located in the same group (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Fig.
2</xref>
). Of those species, <italic>Phoma</italic>
carries the oldest name,
which was deposited by Fries in 1821, but as <italic>Phoma sensu</italic>
Saccardo
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref187">1880</xref>
) was conserved
against<italic> Phoma</italic>
Fries (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref133">McNeill
<italic>et al.</italic>
2006</xref>
), the genus <italic>Ascochyta</italic>
, which was
erected in 1830, would be the preferred name for the species in this genus.
Nevertheless, because of the impact that recombination of <italic>Phoma</italic>
in
<italic>Ascochyta</italic>
would have in phytopathology, we suggest to keep both
generic names in use for the unresolved species in the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
,
disregarding the fact that both names are polyphyletic. Both genera can be
regarded as polyphyletic concepts, until a proper study of the teleomorph
genera related to the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
has been conducted. Also the
younger genera <italic>Chaetasbolisia</italic>
and <italic>Microsphaeropsis</italic>
should be
retained as separate taxonomic entities, until at least all taxa are restudied
both morphologically and phylogenetically. However, the clades that are
resolved, and that are characterised by shared morphological or physiological
characters, or have a shared ecological role, are elevated to generic level
here. Consequences of this approach are the reinstatement of the genus
<italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
Goid., expansion of the formerly monotypic genus
<italic>Epicoccum</italic>
Link, emendment of the concept of <italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
Died. and the erection of the novel genus <italic>Boeremia</italic>
.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Teleomorph relations</title>
<p>In <italic>Phoma</italic>
several teleomorphs have been recognised, but for the
majority of <italic>Phoma</italic>
species the sexual structures have yet to be
discovered, as the induction of these structures requires special conditions;
or simply because the species has lost its ability to propagate sexually.

<p>The finding of multiple teleomorphs with phenotypically indistinguishable
associated anamorphs is not uncommon in mycology, yet unwanted, and should be
resolved in due course as more data become available. For example, such a
situation also applies to major genera such as <italic>Aspergillus</italic>

<p>Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
) linked <italic>Phoma</italic>
to four teleomorph genera: <italic>Didymella, Leptosphaeria, Mycosphaerella</italic>
and <italic>Pleospora</italic>
. In recent studies it was shown that the association of
<italic>Phoma</italic>
with <italic>Mycosphaerella</italic>
was untenable, because the
involved teleomorphs were apparently morphologically similar but in fact
<italic>Didymella</italic>
. The genus <italic>Mycosphaerella</italic>
is phylogenetically
distinct and not even associated with the <italic>Pleosporales</italic>
(Schoch <italic>et
al.</italic>

), whereas their associated
<italic>Phoma</italic>
anamorphs proved to be genetically similar to
<italic>Didymella</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et
al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). As a consequence, the pawpaw (<italic>Carica
papaya</italic>
) pathogen <italic>M. caricae</italic>
has been recombined into <italic>D.
caricae</italic>
in the present study. Also the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
clade is
not yet completely resolved.</p>
<p>Next to <italic>Didymella</italic>
, also <italic>Leptosphaerulina</italic>
and
<italic>Macroventuria</italic>
are accommodated in the <italic>Didymellaceae.
Macroventuria</italic>
resembles <italic>Venturia</italic>
(Van der Aa <italic>et al.</italic>
1971); the ascospore morphology being highly comparable to that of
<italic>Didymella</italic>
. In contrast, <italic>Leptosphaerulina</italic>
is distinct in
morphology, producing ascospores with longitudinal and transverse septa, more
resembling the ascospores of <italic>Pleospora</italic>
and <italic>Cucurbitaria</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref14">Von Arx 1981</xref>
).
<italic>Didymella</italic>
is a poorly studied genus that is in need of a
comprehensive revision, as it plays such a crucial role in the delimitation of
phytopathologically important genera. When studied more intensively, this
genus may very well be split up into multiple genera that have a proper
morphological basis.</p>
<p>Sexual states have thus far only been reported for a limited number of
<italic>Phoma</italic>
species. It seems unlikely that the ability to produce sexual
reproductive structures is lost in so many species, whilst other, closely
related species, or even species that emerge from these “asexual”
species, do have a teleomorph state. It may be assumed that the sexual state
of these species is cryptic, and can only be induced under the right
conditions. These teleomorph structures, that probably much resemble the
sexual structures formed by the genus <italic>Didymella</italic>
, are probably the
missing links that are required for further taxonomical delineation of the
species in the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Can the sections be maintained?</title>
<p>The present study was initiated chiefly to clarify the status of
<italic>Phoma</italic>
and to judge the validity of the sections introduced by Boerema
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref34">1997</xref>
). Aveskamp <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref18">2008</xref>
) already
illustrated the ambiguity of some sections, as multiple characters that are
regarded to be section-specific may be present in a single species. For
example, <italic>Ph. zeae-maydis</italic>
was regarded as the type species of the
section <italic>Macrospora</italic>
, due to the presence of its relatively large
aseptate spores (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref94">De Gruyter
2002</xref>
). However, this species also produces multicellular
chlamydospores, resembling the chlamydospores formed in species that are
accommodated in the section <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
. The recombination of this
species into <italic>Pey. zeae-maydis</italic>
in the present study, which is based on
DNA phylogeny, indicates that the spore size is not an informative character
at above-species level.</p>
<p>Another example of the ambiguity of the Boeremaean section is <italic>Ph.
destructiva</italic>
. Infraspecific taxa of this species are accommodated in two
sections: <italic>Ph. destructiva</italic>
var. <italic>diversispora</italic>
was accommodated
in section <italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
, wheras the type variety was linked to
section <italic>Phoma</italic>
due to the absence of septate conidia. Boerema <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
) acknowledged
this ambiguity problem and were forced to key out several species in multiple
sectional dichotomous keys. In the previous study of De Gruyter <italic>et
al</italic>
. (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">2009</xref>
) this
ambiguity could not be illustrated as only sectional representatives were
included. Here it is illustrated that, although some sections can be partially
maintained, most of the sections are not supported from an evolutionary
perspective.</p>
<sec><title>Section <italic>Heterospora</italic>
</title>
<p>The majority of the species that were ascribed to <italic>Phoma</italic>
section
<italic>Heterospora</italic>
is recovered in Group R, from which the species are all
recombined into the genus <italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
in the present paper. The
type species of section <italic>Heterospora</italic>
however, <italic>Ph.
heteromorphospora</italic>
, is recovered basal to the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
together with <italic>Ph. dimorphospora</italic>
. Also <italic>Ph. samarorum</italic>
is not
retrieved in the main <italic>Phoma</italic>
clade, but is associated with the
<italic>Phaeosphaeriaceae</italic>
.</p>
<p>Also within the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
, the <italic>Heterospora</italic>
section
appears to be polyphyletic as <italic>Ph. aquilegiicola, Ph. glaucii</italic>
and
<italic>Ph. clematidina</italic>
are distantly related to most other
<italic>Heterospora</italic>
species and form a distinct clade together with another
<italic>Clematidina</italic>
pathogen, <italic>Ph. clematidis-rectae</italic>
, a species that
has been regularly confused with the <italic>Phoma clematidina</italic>
complex
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref239">Woudenberg <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). The species in this clade can be distinguished from the
main body of the <italic>Heterospora</italic>
species as they lack the production of
large <italic>Stagonospora</italic>
-type conidia in culture, although smaller, septate
conidia may occur.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Section <italic>Macrospora</italic>
</title>
<p>The five large-spored species of the section <italic>Macrospora</italic>
included
in this study are found scattered throughout the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
,
indicating that spore size is not a good taxonomic criterion for delimiting
taxa above species level. <italic>Phoma zeae-maydis</italic>
is genetically similar to
most <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
species. This association is supported by the
finding of dictyochlamydospores in most species in this clade
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
).</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Section <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
</title>
<p>Also <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref6">Van der Aa <italic>et al.</italic>
1990</xref>
) appears to be polyphyletic. The section comprises 12 taxa
that produce pycnidial conidiomata with setae
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref95">De Gruyter & Boerema
2002</xref>
). Members of this section are found in clades 5, 6, and 8 of
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Fig. 1</xref>
. <italic>Phoma gardenia</italic>
is the only setae-producing species known in the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
.
Because of its ability to produce dictyochlamydospores, and based on the DNA
phylogeny presented in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Fig. 2</xref>
,
it is recombined into the genus <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
here.</p>
<p>The type species for the former section <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
is <italic>Ph.
radicina</italic>
, which is accommodated in the <italic>Phaeosphaeriaceae</italic>
group
(clade 6). Remarkably, no other species that were ascribed to the section
<italic>Paraphoma</italic>
are found in the same family. Instead, <italic>Ph.
chrysanthemicola</italic>
(formerly ascribed to the section <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
)
is found in close association with <italic>Ph. radicina</italic>
. Both species are
recognised as soil fungi and have a wide distribution with records from
Europe, North-America and Asia (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema
<italic>et al.</italic>
2004</xref>
). The close association between <italic>Ph.
samarorum, Ph. chrysanthemicola</italic>
and <italic>Ph. radicina</italic>
has been
recorded before in a phylogenetical reconstruction of the section
<italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
in a study of
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
. The resolution of the clade in that study was, however,
higher as the complete ITS regions 1 and 2 were applied in genetic analyses
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009a</xref>
). Further linkage of the morphological and ecological
characters to the phylogeny will be one of the main challenges for taxonomists
working on the species in this group.</p>
<p>A third <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
species, <italic>Ph. terricola</italic>
, is recovered in
clade 5 of <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Fig. 1</xref>
, which
resembles the <italic>Cucurbitaceae</italic>
. This family also hosts the setae-lacking
species <italic>Ph. pratorum</italic>
, which was classified in section <italic>Phoma</italic>
.
Several other coelomycete fungi are accommodated here as well, including
<italic>Phialophorophoma litoralis, Pleurophoma cava</italic>
, a sterile strain that
once has been identified as <italic>Coniothyrium</italic>
sp. and various
<italic>Pyrenochaeta</italic>
species. The close morphological relation between the
genera <italic>Pyrenochaeta, Pleurophoma</italic>
and <italic>Phoma</italic>
section
<italic>Paraphoma</italic>
was already noted by Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref53">1996</xref>
) and Grondona <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref92">1997</xref>
). Like
<italic>Phialophorophoma litoralis</italic>
and <italic>Pleurophoma cava,
Pyrenochaeta</italic>
is characterised by the formation of elongated, filiform,
multiseptate conidiophores, a character that is however not found in the
various <italic>Phoma</italic>
species embedded in this clade
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref100">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). A further delineation of the species associated with the
genera <italic>Pyrenochaeta</italic>
and <italic>Pleurophoma</italic>
and the <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Paraphoma</italic>
will be provided in a follow-up paper by De Gruyter
<italic>et al.</italic>

<sec><title>Section <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
</title>
<p>The chlamydospore-producing species have been treated before by Aveskamp
<italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref19">2009a</xref>
), who
revealed that also <italic>Phoma</italic>
section<italic> Peyronellaea</italic>
is artificial
from an evolutionary point of view. Most species, including the type <italic>Ph.
glomerata</italic>
, cluster in group K of <xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Fig.
2</xref>
, along with many other (uni- and multicellular) chlamydospore
producing species. To be in accordance with the phylogenetic results, this
cluster is elevated to generic level, which is named after the section
<italic>Peyronellaea.</italic>
A second group of species belonging to this section is
recovered in clade L, which groups species that produce botryoid or epicoccoid
dictyochlamydospores, including <italic>Epicoccum nigrum</italic>
. Two species,
<italic>Ph. pimprina</italic>
and <italic>Ph. sorghina</italic>
are recombined into
<italic>Epicoccum</italic>
here. Species that produce pseudoscleroid chlamydospores,
such as <italic>Ph. violicicola</italic>
and <italic>Ph. chrysanthemicola</italic>
were found
to cluster outside the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Section <italic>Phoma</italic>
</title>
<p>Species ascribed to <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Phoma</italic>
are retrieved in
practically all clades of the trees produced in the present study. This
supports the general idea that this section has been used as a
“waste-bin” for phomoid taxa that could not be placed in other
sections or genera due to the lack or presence of typical sectional
characters.</p>
<p>The type species of this section, and also of the genus as a whole, is
<italic>Ph. herbarum</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref29">Boerema
1964</xref>
). The reference strains of this species are accommodated
amongst the basal polytomous species of the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
. This
suggests that it has branched off from most other members of this family in an
early phase of the development of the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
and probably
evolved further without recombining with other taxa.</p>
<p>Although the description of <italic>Ph. crinicola</italic>
is highly similar to
that of other species in the <italic>B. exigua</italic>
clade presented in
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig2">Fig. 2</xref>
, it has never been
recognised as such due to the absence of septate conidia. Nevertheless, the
remaining characters do not contradict with the description given for <italic>Ph.
exigua</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref7">Van der Aa <italic>et al.</italic>
2000</xref>
). The pycnidia of <italic>Ph. crinicola</italic>
usually carry a
single ostiole, but pycnidia are regularly observed lacking an apparent
ostiole. This may correspond with the ostiolar openings of many species found
within the <italic>exigua</italic>
clade, which are often lined or filled with
papillate, hyaline cells.</p>
<p>Similar findings are <italic>Ph. aurea</italic>
and <italic>Ph. nigricans</italic>
in clade
K, which is mainly filled with chlamydospore-forming species that were
previously associated with the section <italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
. Both species
were originally described from New Zealand
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref120">Johnston & Boerema 1981</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref97">De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
1993</xref>
), but may be commonly present on the whole Australasian
continent (De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref97">1993</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref98">1998</xref>
). Two other species,
belonging to section <italic>Phoma</italic>
, but found in this clade are <italic>Ph.
anserina</italic>
and <italic>Ph. eucalyptica</italic>
. Both species produce swollen cells
in older cultures (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref96">De Gruyter &
Noordeloos 1992</xref>
), which may be an initial phase of chlamydospore
formation.</p>
<p>Fifteen species are phylogenetically only distantly related to the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
, and should therefore be excluded from the genus. These
species include the current <italic>Ph. apiicola, Ph. capitulum, Ph. fallens, Ph.
fimeti, Ph. flavescens, Ph. flavigena, Ph. glaucispora, Ph. haematocycla, Ph.
lini, Ph. minutispora, Ph. multipora, Ph. opuntiae, Ph. pratorum, Ph.
valerianae</italic>
, and <italic>Ph. vasinfecta</italic>
. The problem in recombining these
species is, however, the absence of characters that could link these taxa to a
specific genus. No teleomorphs are known in this group.</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Section <italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
</title>
<p>All taxa belonging to <italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
are
retrieved in the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
clade of
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="fig1">Fig. 1</xref>
(Clade 8). This is
remarkable as this large section has been regarded, just like section
<italic>Phoma</italic>
, to be a repository for all species that could not be
accommodated elsewhere. Nevertheless, within the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
this
section falls apart as species occur in many distinct clades.</p>
<p>The major body of the <italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
species is retrieved in
group N, in which all <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
-related species and varieties are
found (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009b</xref>
), as well as <italic>Ph. crinicola</italic>
and <italic>Ph.
hedericola</italic>
, which were associated with <italic>Phoma</italic>
section
<italic>Phoma</italic>
. A second group in which many <italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
taxa
cluster is clade R. This clade comprises many species of the former section
<italic>Heterospora,</italic>
and several species that were excluded from this section
and transferred to <italic>Phyllostictoides</italic>
by Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">1997</xref>

<sec><title>Section <italic>Pilosa</italic>
</title>
<p>Only one of both members of the section Pilosa was included in the present
study. The type of this section, <italic>Ph. betae</italic>
, produces a teleomorph in
<italic>Pleospora</italic>
, a genus that is typified by <italic>Pl. herbarum</italic>
. Both
species are related and are found in the <italic>Pleosporaceae</italic>
and
<italic>Leptosphaeriaceae</italic>
clade, although the genetic distance between these
species is significant. This finding illustrates the difficulties that are
experienced when delineating the <italic>Pleosporaceae</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref82">Dong <italic>et al.</italic>

</sec>
<sec><title>Section <italic>Plenodomus</italic>
</title>
<p>Thus far the only section created by Boerema that still may be monophyletic
is the section <italic>Plenodomus</italic>
, of which all the members are found in the
<italic>Leptosphaeriaceae</italic>
. However, some species associated with other
sections, such as <italic>Ph. apiicola, Ph. valerianae, Ph. vasinfecta</italic>
(section <italic>Phoma)</italic>
and <italic>Ph. violicola</italic>
(section
<italic>Peyronellaea</italic>
) are also linked to this clade and are found to be
closely related to the <italic>Plenodomus</italic>
species. The section
<italic>Plenodomus</italic>
is associated with a <italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
teleomorph,
but for the aberrant <italic>Phoma</italic>
states found in this clade, no teleomorphs
are known. Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">2004</xref>
) mentioned five
<italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
species that produce <italic>Phoma</italic>
anamorphs, but that
do not fit within the <italic>Plenodomus</italic>
concept. These species, including
<italic>L. sacchari, L. haematitis, L. libanotis, L. purpurea</italic>
and <italic>L.
weimeri</italic>
were however not to our disposal, and were therefore not studied.
Apparently the genus <italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
produces multiple anamorphs.</p>
<p>Most taxonomic studies on the <italic>Leptosphaeriaceae</italic>
reveal a
monophyletic group, although in these studies, only a limited number of
species, belonging to either <italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
or <italic>Phoma</italic>
section
<italic>Plenodomus,</italic>
have been included
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref139">Morales <italic>et al.</italic>

1998</xref>
,
<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref62">Câmara <italic>et al.</italic>
2002</xref>
). Due to the inclusion of only two <italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
species in the present study, it cannot be unambiguously stated whether this
section is mono- or paraphyletic.</p>
<p>Both species included, <italic>L. maculans</italic>
and <italic>L. biglobosa</italic>
, are
assumed to represent a heterogeneous assemblage of cryptic taxa

past, this has obscured a proper understanding of <italic>Phoma</italic>
section
<italic>Plenodomus</italic>
and <italic>Leptosphaeria</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref53">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>

resolve its phylogeny in a separate paper (De Gruyter <italic>et al.</italic>
prep.).</p>
</sec>
<sec><title>Section <italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
</title>
<p>The thickened, sclerotisised pycnidial wall, and the formation of poroid
pycnidial openings instead of an ostiole, are the main characters of
<italic>Phoma</italic>
section <italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
. These characters appear not to
reflect the evolutionary history of the genus. Only in group O, a cluster of
species is retrieved that is known for their ostiole absence, although not in
all species the thickened pycnidial wall is observed. Most other species
belonging to section <italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
appear to be unrelated as they
have emerged from non-<italic>Sclerophomella</italic>
multiple times during evolution.
Therefore these species are found scattered throughout the phylogeny of the
Pleosporales. The type species of this section is <italic>Ph. complanata</italic>
,
which is found in the basal polytomy of the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
.</p>
<p>Many of the morphological characters that were used by Boerema <italic>et
al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref54">1997</xref>
) to create an
infrageneric subdivision of <italic>Phoma</italic>
, appear not to be evolutionary
informative when compared to sequence data. The main characters that were
applied to distinguish sections, like the thickness of the pycnidial walls,
chlamydospore structure and presence of <italic>Stagonosporopsis</italic>
synanamorphs
are only of limited value. Several characters, such as percentage of septated
spores may be genetically driven, but are certainly also highly influenced by
the growth media and culturing conditions
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref175">Rai 2000</xref>
). This has led to
much confusion surrounding the taxonomic placement of many species in either
<italic>Ascochyta</italic>
or <italic>Phoma</italic>
, such as <italic>A. rabiei</italic>
(<italic>e.g.</italic>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref94">De Gruyter 2002</xref>
).</p>
<p>In short, the Boeremaean sectional subdivision is hardly of any
evolutionary relevance, suggesting that future classification of taxonomic
novelties into these sections should be avoided. Nevertheless, the
morphological identification system that was developed based on this
subdivision (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref55">Boerema <italic>et al.</italic>

<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref197">2009</xref>
). Cytochrome Oxidase I
(COI) was for a long time considered to be a good candidate gene for barcoding
fungi (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref198">Seifert <italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref149">Nguyen & Seifert
2008</xref>
), although some recent studies indicate the variation between
copies within a single strain (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref90">Geiser
<italic>et al.</italic>
2007</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref91">Gilmore
<italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
). Also Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">2009b</xref>
) found that the COI
locus was not robust, and thus far, COI barcodes have only been applied in an
oligonucleotide array identification system for <italic>Penicillium</italic>
spp.
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref65">Chen <italic>et al.</italic>
2009</xref>
).
The value of ITS as primary barcode region is, however, not sufficient to
delineate all taxa. Especially amongst the species clustered in clade N, which
represents the species that are associated to the <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
species
complex, ITS is not sufficient to distinguish the various species. This
finding is in congruence with results obtained in previous studies, in which
the ITS region has been applied in an attempt to distinguish the species
within the <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
complex but without success
(<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref132">MacDonald <italic>et al.</italic>
2000</xref>
, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref8">Abeln <italic>et al.</italic>
2002</xref>
, Cullen <italic>et al.</italic>
2006). Nevertheless, the other taxa
included in this study have been found on long-branched clades, which are
mainly due to the variation in TUB and ITS sequences. Another locus that is
considered to be helpful for developing DNA barcodes, and which can
distinguish many more taxa in the <italic>Ph. exigua</italic>
complex is the Actin
gene (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref20">Aveskamp <italic>et al.</italic>
2009b</xref>
), which is sequenced with a primer combination developed by
Carbone & Kohn (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref63">1999</xref>
).
This locus has, however, not been included in the present study, as
infraspecific genetic variation, even within the <italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
, was
too high to align the obtained sequences. Also Calmodulin and Translation
Elongation Factor 1-α loci have been tested, but none of the primers
combinations used (<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="ref63">Carbone & Kohn
1999</xref>
) could guarantee successful amplification of all strains.</p>
<p>Observations and results presented here represent only a preliminary step
towards resolving questions related to the taxonomy of the genus
<italic>Phoma</italic>
. With the numerous species awaiting to be discovered, the
taxonomic system of this complex will probably be changed again as more clades
are added. Nevertheless, it is hoped that the present study on <italic>Phoma</italic>
systematics, together with the “<italic>Phoma Identification
Manual</italic>
”, will provide a solid foundation on which the
<italic>Didymellaceae</italic>
in general, and the <italic>Phoma</italic>
species in
particular, can be further delineated.</p>
