Species of Cryphonectriaceae occupy an endophytic niche in the Melastomataceae and are putative latent pathogens of Eucalyptus
2020-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Species of Cryphonectriaceae can occur as asymptomatic fungal endophytes in Melastomataceae trees and shrubs. One hypothesis suggests Chrysoporthe cubensis (Cryphonectriaceae) is an endophyte of the Melastomataceae that has undergone a host switch to infect species of Eucalyptus in South America. The potential for similar host switches by other species of the Cryphonectriaceae is exacerbated by native stands of Me...
