Abstract

We examined endophytic fungi from the needle leaves of three species of conifers in Korea: Abies nephrolepis, Thuja koraiensis, Pinus koraiensis. Endophytic fungi were isolated from the surface-sterilized leaves and identified based on morphological characteristics and Internal transcribed spacer sequences of rDNA. Three species of endophytic fungi isolated in this study were the first reported in Korea: Cryptosporiopsis actinidiae, Pestalotiopsis mangiferae, Pyrenochaeta cava.

경기도와 강원도에 위치한 화악산, 명지산 그리고 설악산에서 침엽수를 채집하여 균 분리를 수행하였다. 특히, 눈측백과 분비나무의 내생균에 대한 연구가 최초로 수행되었으며, 본 연구를 통해 이들로부터 분리한 균에 대한 형태적, 유전적 동정을 수행하였다. 그 결과 Cryptosporiopsis actinidiae, Pestalotiopsis mangiferae, Pyrenochaeta cava가 확인되었으며, 이에 대해 최초로 국내에서 눈측백과 분비나무에 분포함을 보고하였다.
