After the Fifth Meeting of the International Union of Forest Research Organizations IUFRO Working Party 7‐02‐09 “Phytophthora in Forests and Natural Ecosystems” in Rotorua in New Zealand in 2010, we are pleased to hold the Sixth Meeting in Córdoba (Spain). The meeting has been organized jointly by the Universidad de Córdoba and Universitat Politècnica de València. The city of Córdoba has over two thousand years of history. It was founded in the II century BC by the Roman Consul Claudius Marcellus, keeping the same ...

Identification of Burkholderia and Penicillium isolates from kauri (Agathis australis) soils that inhibit the mycelial growth of Phytophthora agathidicidaPhytophthora agathidicida is a highly virulent pathogen of kauri (Agathis australis) and the causal agent of dieback disease in New Zealand’s kauri forests. This study aimed to identify microbial isolates isolated from kauri forest soils that inhibited the growth of P. agathidicida. Three different forms of in vitro bioassays were used to assess the inhibition of each isolate on the mycelial growth of P. agathidicida. Furthermore, head space (HS) solid-phase micro-extraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GCMS) was performed to identify if the microbial isolates emitted volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which may be contributing to inhibition. This research identified several bacterial isolates belonging to the genus Burkholderia that inhibited the mycelial growth of P. agathidicida. Furthermore, several VOCs produced by these isolates were putatively identified, which may be responsible for the inhibition observed in the bioassays. Several isolates of Peni...

Pythium kandovanense sp. nov., a fungus - like eukaryotic microorganism (Stramenopila, Pythiales) isolated from snow covered ryegrass leaves2015 •
Pythium kandovanense sp. nov. (ex-type culture CCTU 1813T = OPU 1626T = CBS 139567T) is a new oomycete species isolated from Lolium perenne with snow rot symptoms in a natural grassland in East-Azarbaijan province, Iran. Phylogenetic analyses based on sequence data from ITS-rDNA, coxI and coxII mitochondrial genes, clustered our isolates in Pythium group E as a unique, well supported clade. Pythium kandovanense is phylogenetically and morphologically distinct from the other closely related species in this clade, namely Pythium rostratifingens and Pythium rostratum. Pythium kandovanense can be distinguished from these two species by its cylindrical sporangia and lower optimum and maximum growth rate temperatures. The development of zoospores released through shorter discharge tube, is additional morphological feature which can be used to differentiate Pythium kandovanense from P. rostratifingens. Laboratory inoculation tests demonstrated the pathogenicity of P. kandovanense to L. per...
