Abstract:   (302 Views)
Fungal endophytes are defined as microorganisms with the ability to colonize plants asymptomatically throughout or at least a significant part of their life cycle, thereby establishing a plant-fungal association. In the present study, 44 plant samples, including healthy and symptomless fruit, leaf and branch samples, were collected from Eucalyptus trees located in Tehran, Qom, Alborz, Esfahan, and Mazandaran provinces to isolate and identify the endophytic fungi. Among 170 fungal isolates from collected plant samples, two species were new based on morphological and molecular phylogeny of the ITS rDNA for the Funga of Iran, including Phaeophleospora eucalypticola and Pseudosydowia eucalypti. Furthermore, both species are reported for the first time as endophytic fungi of eucalyptus trees in the world.
