Phylogeny and Systematics of the Genus Tolypocladium (Ophiocordycipitaceae, Hypocreales).

ABSTRACT: The taxonomy and phylogeny of the genus Tolypocladium are herein revised based on the most comprehensive dataset to date. Two species-level phylogenies of Tolypocladium were constructed: a single-gene phylogeny (ITS) of 35 accepted species and a multigene phylogeny (nrSSU, nrLSU, tef-1α, rpb1, and rpb2) of 27 accepted species. Three new species, Tolypocladium pseudoalbum sp. nov., Tolypocladium subparadoxum sp. nov., and Tolypocladium yunnanense sp. nov., are described in the present study. The genetic divergences of four markers (ITS, tef-1α, rpb1 and rpb2) among Tolypocladium species are also reported. The results indicated that species of Tolypocladium were best delimit
