Glomerellaceae Locq. ex Seifert & W. Gams, in Zhang et al. (2007)
Remarks.
The family
Glomerellaceae
was introduced by Locquin (1984), but was invalidly published. To date, most
Glomerellaceae
have been recorded to be pathogens (
Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016b
). Earlier studies reported that the position of the family
Glomerellaceae
was not stable (
Zhang et al. 2006
;
Kirk et al. 2001
;
Kirk et al. 2008
).
Reblova
et al. (2011)
resolved the placement of
Glomerellaceae
by using phylogenetic analysis of combined ITS, LSU, SSU and RPB2 sequence data. Recently, the family
Glomerellaceae
was established based on the genus
Glomerella
(
Zhang et al. 2006
), which had been given a synonym under its asexual morph
Colletotrichum
(
Maharachchikumbura et al. 2015
). Recently,
Jayawardena et al. (2016)
provided notes
on
currently accepted species of
Colletotrichum
. In this study, the authors introduce a new endophytic
Colletotrichum
species and report a known species of endophytic
Colletotrichum
from
gloeosporioides
species complex based on morphology and phylogenetic analysis.
