  • Farysia unciniae sp. nov. (Ustilaginomycetes) on Uncinia (Cyperaceae) from Chile
    2016
    Co-Authors: Kalman Vanky, Dominik Begerow
    Abstract:

    Th e genus Farysia Racib. (Ustilaginales G.P. Clinton, emend. R. Bauer & Oberw.) is characterised by sori in single fl owers of host plants in the Cyperaceae. When young the sori are covered by a fungal peridium which bursts at maturity disclosing th

  • New smuts (Ustilaginales) on grasses from Western Australia
    Mycological Research, 1997
    Co-Authors: Roger G. Shivas, Kalman Vanky
    Abstract:

    Three new species of smut fungi (Ustilaginales) on grasses from Western Australia are described and illustrated: Sporisorium ordense sp. nov. on Brachiaria pubigera, Sporisorium paraneurachnes sp. nov. on Paraneurachne muelleri and Ustilago xerochloae sp. nov. on Xerochloa imberbis and X. laniflora. Smut fungi new to Australia are: Sporisorium heteropogonicola comb. nov. (based on Sorosporium heteropogonicola ) on Heteropogon contortus, Sporisorium iseilamatis on Iseilema vaginiflorum (matrix nova), Tilletia opaca on Spinifex longifolius (matrix nova), Ustilago spermophora on Sporobolus australasicus (matrix nova). Sporisorium mitchellii , known hitherto from South Australia on Iseilema mitchellii , was collected on Iseilema dolicotrichum (matrix nova).

  • Aurantiosporium, a new genus forUstilago subnitens (Ustilaginales)
    Plant Systematics and Evolution, 1996
    Co-Authors: Meike Piepenbring, Kalman Vanky, Franz Oberwinkler
    Abstract:

    A new genus, Aurantiosporium Piepenbring, Vánky & Oberwinkler ( Ustilaginales ), is proposed for the smut species Ustilago subnitens Schröter & Hennings on Scleria melaleuca Reichb. The soral morphology, teliospore development, the ultrastructure of the teliospore wall and teliospore germination of Aurantiosporium subnitens , studied on collections from Costa Rica, are described for the first time. The character set of A. subnitens including intercellular teliospore development, spores in irregular groups and light coloured spore walls with numerous layers in TEM is neither known from Ustilago nor Cintractia nor any other smut species.

  • Rhodosporidium Babjevae, a New Heterothallic Yeast Species (Ustilaginales)
    Systematic and Applied Microbiology, 1993
    Co-Authors: Wladyslaw I. Golubev
    Abstract:

    Summary A description of a new red-pigmented non-ballistosporogenous teliospore-forming yeast is given. The yeast does not mate with the other species of the genus Rhodosporidium and differs from them by teliospore or metabasidium morphology, by physiological properties and by sensitivity to Rhodotorula mucilaginosa mycocins. The type strain of Rhodosporidium babjevae is VKM Y-2275, the allotype one is VKM Y-2276.

  • the Ustilaginales as plant pests and model systems
    Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2002
    Co-Authors: Alfredo D Martinezespinoza, Maria D Garciapedrajas, Scott E Gold
    Abstract:

    The Ustilaginales are a vast and diverse group of fungi, which includes the plant pathogenic smuts that cause significant losses to crops worldwide. Members of the Ustilaginales are also valuable models for the unraveling of fundamental mechanisms controlling important biological processes. Ustilago maydis is an important fungal model system and has been well studied with regard to mating, morphogenesis, pathogenicity, signal transduction, mycoviruses, DNA recombination, and, recently, genomics. In this review we discuss the life cycles of members of the Ustilaginales and provide background on their economic impact as agricultural pests. We then focus on providing a summary of the literature with special attention to topics not well covered in recent reviews such as the use of U. maydis in mycovirus research and as a model for understanding the molecular mechanisms of fungicide resistance and DNA recombination and repair.
