Phyllosticta is a genus of fungi. Many of the species in this genus are common and important plant pathogens. They typically infect the foliage and cause tannish-gray leaf spots with dark brown to purple borders. However, Phyllosticta may also infect fruit and stems. Yield loss is a common consequence of Phyllosticta infection. [2] Representatives of the genus are found worldwide and on a wide range of plant hosts. [3]

History

Phyllosticta was introduced by German mycologist Persoon in 1818 and species Phyllosticta convallariae Pers. was designated as the type species (Donk 1968). [4] Since Phyllosticta is distinct from other genera in that family, Seaver (1922) treated it in the family PhyllostictaceaeFr. of the order Phyllostictites. [5] Nevertheless, Phyllosticta was accommodated in the family Botryosphaeriaceae Theiss. & Syd. (in order Botryosphaeriales C.L. Schoch et al.) in several major studies (e.g. Crous et al. 2006; [6] Schoch et al. 2006; [7] Liu et al. 2012). [8] However, the phylogenetic analyses by Wikee et al. (2013a) allocated Phyllosticta in a clade sister to Botryosphaeriaceae. [9] As a result, the genus was accepted in the family Phyllostictaceae, in the order Botryosphaeriales. [3]

A total of 3,213 names are documented for Phyllosticta in the Index Fungorum (accessed on 31 March 2022) (Hongsanan et al. 2020; Wijayawardene et al. 2020). [10] However, many of these names have been synonymised (van der Aa and Vanev 2002). [11] In 2022, 1499 species are accepted in the genus (Bánki et al. 2022). [12]

Uredo is a genus of rust fungi: long considered incertae sedis in the order Pucciniales, but now placed in the family Pucciniaceae. This long-established genus, together with the closely-related Uromyces, give their names to "uredo-type" fungal spore structures such as "urediniospore" and uredinium".
