Morphological and phylogenetic characterisation of Podospora sichuanensis sp. nov. (Podosporaceae, Sordariales)
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study presents the identification and description of a novel species, Podospora sichuanensis, isolated from horse dung. Phylogenetic analyses of combined ITS, LSU, RPB2, and TUB2 loci indicate that this novel species forms a monophyletic clade with robust support values. In addition, Podospora sichuanensis can be distinguished from other species within the genus based on its longer conidiogenous cells. Descriptions and illustrations of this novel species are provided in this paper.
