Abstract
In a survey on species diversity and phylogeny of ophiostomatoid fungi associated with bark beetle galleries and decline symptoms on woody hosts in the northwestern region of Iran, nine synnematous fungal isolates with similar growth patterns were isolated from the bark beetle galleries on declining elm trees in Mazandaran, East, and West Azerbaijan provinces. Based on the integration of molecular phylogeny (ITS-rDNA region and tef1-α gene sequences) with cultural and morphological characteristics, the isolates were identified as Graphium carbonarium. Pathogenicity test using an excised shoot assay revealed that the isolates are pathogenic on Ulmus carpinifolia. Our study is the first occurrence and pathogenicity of G. carbonarium from bark beetlae galleries on declining elm in the world.
