Abstract

In the present study, we isolated endophytic fungal strains from the rhizoids of the moss Funaria hygrometrica. The isolated strains were identified based on morphological characteristics and analysis of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and large subunit (LSU) rDNA sequence regions. Consequently, we confirmed the presence of two endophytic fungal species, Curvularia protuberata and Didymella anserina, which have not been reported in Korea previously. Here, we describe the morphological characteristics and molecular analysis results of these fungal species.

표주박이끼의 헛뿌리(rhizoid)에서 내생균을 분리하였다. 분리된 균주는 형태적 특성 및 internal transcribed spacer, large subunit rDNA 영역의 분자적 분석을 토대로 동정하였다. 연구 과정에서 2종의 국내 미기록종 내생균 균주를 확인하였고, 확인된 종은 Curvularia protuberata, Didymella anserina이다. 미기록종 내생균 균주의 형태적 특성 및 계통 분석 결과에 대해 기술하였다.
