Abstract:
Amphichorda has been previously accepted as a member of the Cordycipitaceae and currently it is considered a member of the Bionectriaceae. The substrates of Amphichorda were complex and varied, being mainly animal faeces. This study reports two new species of Amphichorda from Yunnan Province in south-western China. Based on the five-gene (nrSSU, nrLSU, tef-1α, rpb1 and rpb2) sequence and ITS data phylogenetic analysis, two new species, namely A.excrementa and A.kunmingensis, are proposed and a detailed description of the new species is provided. Amphichordaexcrementa and A.kunmingensis were isolated from animal faeces in the park. The morphological characteristics of two novel species and seven known species in Amphichorda are also compared.
摘要:
Amphichorda先前已被接受为Cordycipitaceae的成员,目前被认为是Bionectriaceae的成员。Amphichorda的底物复杂多变,主要是动物粪便。本研究报告了来自中国西南部云南省的两个新物种。基于五基因(nrSSU,nrLSU,tef-1α,rpb1和rpb2)序列和ITS数据系统发育分析,两个新物种,即排泄物A和昆明斯A,提出了新物种的详细描述。从公园的动物粪便中分离出Amphichordaexicmenta和A.kunmingensis。还比较了Amphichorda中两个新物种和七个已知物种的形态特征。
