Abstract

We isolated endophytic fungal strains from the leaves of Abies koreana growing in Korea. The fungal strains were identified as Coleophoma parafusiformis and Coniochaeta ligniaria, based on morphological characteristics and sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer region and large subunit region of ribosomal DNA. These species have not been previously reported in Korea. In this study, we report the morphological characteristics and results of phylogenetic analysis of the two novel fungal strains.

제주도 한라산 구상나무의 잎에서 내생균을 분리하여 다양성을 확인하는 과정에서 두 종의 국내 미기록 균주를 확인하였다. 분리된 균주는 형태적 특징과 internal transcribed spacer (ITS) 지역, large subunit (LSU) rDNA 지역 염기서열의 계통분석을 통해 동정하였다. 확인된 두 미기록종 균주는 Coleophoma parafusiformis와 Coniochaeta ligniaria이며, 두 균주에 대한 형태적 특징과 염기서열의 분석 결과를 제시하였다.
