Authors: UK, CAB International  , Saddler G. S.
Published: July 2021

A description is provided for
Xanthomonas populi
. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS:
Populus balsamifera, P. deltoides, P. euamericana, P. tremula, P. tremuloides
and
P. trichocarpa
×
P. deltoides
(
Salicaceae
). DISEASE: Bacterial canker of poplar. First visible on young branches which swell and crack producing a bacterial exudate. Large cankers may develop at these sites over several seasons, or other organisms may invade and cause rapid death of the distal part of the branch. The pathogen gains entry into the plant through wounds, e.g. leaf and stipule scars, insect punctures and frost cracks. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: ASIA: China, Pakistan. EUROPE: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Russian Federation, Slovakia, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Yugoslavia. TRANSMISSION: The disease can be spread by the actions of wind and rain.

Hypoderma labiorum-aurantiorum

Authors: UK, CAB International  , Minter D. W. , Cannon P. F.
Published: July 2021

A description is provided for
Hypoderma labiorum-aurantiorum
. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. DISEASE:
Hypoderma labiorum-aurantiorum
was one of several members of the
Rhytismataceae
recorded in low levels on dying and dead needles of mainly five-needled native pines in Central America. It seems likely that, as with other members of this family in similar conditions, this fungus begins its life cycle as an endobiont, perhaps causing some disease of older leaves, and only fruiting when the leaf is dying or already dead. HOSTS:
Pinus caribaea, P. maximinoi, P. oocarpa, P. tecumumanii
(leaves). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: CENTRAL AMERICA: Honduras. TRANSMISSION: Not known. Presumably by air-borne ascospores released in humid conditions.

Rhytismataceae
. HOSTS:
Hedera helix

Naemacyclus fimbriatus
. [Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria].
Authors: UK, CAB International  , Minter D. W. , Cannon P. F.
Published: July 2021

A description is provided for
Naemacyclus fimbriatus
. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. DISEASE: VUJANOVIĆ, ST-ARNAUD & NEUMANN (1998) have provided the only report suggesting that
Naemacyclus fimbriatus
can cause infections of living needles of
Pinus
species. They observed chlorotic and necrotic second- and third-year needles of
Pinus rigida
bearing ascomata identified as this species. The fungus was successfully isolated into pure culture from those needles, and from dead fallen cones, presumably of the same pine. They speculated that 'unfavourable conditions such as the more than 200 days with frost and thin organic or mineral soil layer may predispose pitch pine to infection by this fungus'. The apparent absence of this fungus from higher latitudes in Europe noted below seems, at first sight, incompatible with this observation. HOSTS:
Pinus brutia, P. halepensis, P. maritima, P. nigra
var.
maritima, P. nigra
var.
pallasiana, P. nigra, P. pinaster, P. resinosa, P. rigida, P. sylvestris, P. sylvestris
subsp.
kochiana, P. taeda, P. uncinata, P. virginiana, Pinus
sp. (bark, cones, cone scales and leaves). GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: NORTH AMERICA: Canada (Québec), USA (Georgia, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania). EUROPE: Austria, Czech Republic, France, Republic of Georgia, Greece, Hungary, Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Switzerland, UK, Ukraine. TRANSMISSION: Not known. Presumably by air-borne ascospores released in humid conditions. VUJANOVIĆ, ST-ARNAUD & NEUMANN (1998) reported that
Naemacyclus fimbriatus
produces 1-3 brown mycelial cords, 50-100 μm diam., which grow through the litter from ascomata in autumn. They were unable to explain the nature of these cords, which have never been observed by the present author. In two species of fungi inhabiting living conifer leaves (
Didymascella thujina, IMI Descriptions
No. 1334 and
Rhabdocline pseudotsugae, IMI Descriptions
No. 651, both possibly members of the
Rhytismatales
), ascospores have been observed to germinate while still inside the ascus and it is possible that hyphae resulting from these germ tubes may grow out of the ascoma and cause further infections. Those two species are, however, undoubtedly rather distant from
Naemacyclus fimbriatus
and their germination, in any case, is always associated with a darkening of one cell of the ascospore, a phenomenon not reported by VUJANOVIĆ, ST-ARNAUD & NEUMANN (1998). The mycelial cords they observed therefore remain unexplained.
Cerebella andropogonis
. [Descriptions of Fungi and Bacteria].

Published: July 2021

A description is provided for
Cerebella andropogonis
. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. DISEASE: Although
Cerebella andropogonis
apparently produces a disease in spikelets of grasses, it is actually a saprobe on sugary secretions of members of the ascomycete family
Clavicipitaceae
, and therefore by itself not a real trouble for the plants on which it grows. HOSTS: Parasitic on members of the
Clavicipitaceae
(
Claviceps maximus, C. paspali, Claviceps
sp.) growing on the following grasses:
