Botryosphaerialean fungi associated with woody oil plants cultivated in Sichuan Province, China.

ABSTRACT: Woody oil plants are important economic trees which are widely cultivated and distributed throughout China. Surveys conducted during 2020 and 2021 on several woody oil plantations from five regions of Sichuan Province, China, revealed a high diversity of Botryosphaerialean fungi. The identification of 50 botryosphaeriaceous isolates was carried out based on both morphology and multi-gene phylogenetic analysis of internal transcribed spacer region (ITS), translation elongation factor 1-alpha gene (tef1) and β-tubulin gene (tub2). This allowed the identification of twelve previously known Botryosphaeriales species: Aplosporellaprunicola, A.ginkgonis, Barriopsistectonae, Botryosphaeriadothidea, Bo.fabicerciana, Diplodiamutila, Di.seri
