A new species of Curvularia from Japan.

摘要

A new fungal species, Curvularia panici sp. nov., isolated from the leaves of Panicum repens collected in Japan, is described and illustrated as a species producing long conidia with more than six septa. Molecular phylogenetic analysis of the ITS regions and 5.8S rDNA revealed that C. panici formed one genetic group with Curvularia distinguished from Exserohilum and long-conidia Bipolaris.
